Why Rochester Hills calls us for fire and smoke cleanup
We're on site in about an hour
Our line is staffed at every hour, and our emergency service covers homes and commercial buildings. Our shop is on West Hamlin Road here in Rochester Hills, so the drive is short and a crew can usually be at your door within about an hour.
A free inspection of the fire damage
The free inspection goes past the burned room. Double-pane windows near the fire can fog up weeks later because heat broke the seal, so we note them now. We're an IICRC Certified Firm, IICRC certified for fire and smoke restoration and odor control.
We work directly with your insurance company
Every insurance company is fine by us, and we speak to your adjuster ourselves. Because our own crew does the rebuild, we can answer the adjuster's questions about how the house goes back together, from framing to finishes, without waiting on another contractor.
We help you get the most from your claim
Sealing smoke-stained framing can be part of the job, and it's easy to leave off an estimate because no one sees it once the walls are closed. We list it so it's counted, and we push for everything your coverage allows, though the carrier alone decides what it pays.
Financing if you need it
If the policy pays to replace only the damaged part of a floor and you'd like the whole room redone so it matches, financing can cover the difference. It's also there for your deductible or costs that fall outside the policy.

Response came out to our house when we had water issues with our attic and potential mold growth. They dispatched a project manager to came out same day and provided advice regarding insurance, let us know what to expect for the work, and sent a crew out the next day. Everything moved quickly and smoothly...

How our fire damage cleanup works in Rochester Hills
Step 1. You call and we secure the house
Once the fire department clears the scene, call our 24/7 line for the board-up. We cover the windows firefighters broke and any doors that were forced, upstairs as well as down, since a second-floor window left open lets rain run into the walls below it.
Step 2. We inspect the fire and smoke damage
The boxed-in space above kitchen cabinets is often hollow, and smoke can fill it. Our technician checks those boxes and other hollow spaces, and photographs what we find, since nobody can see inside them once the kitchen is put back together.
Step 3. We remove water, soot and debris
Soaked carpet is too heavy to roll out in one piece, so we cut it into strips, extract the water underneath and pull the pad. Drying equipment starts right after, and the burned drywall and trim leave the house as debris.
Step 4. We clean and deodorize
Small parts like outlet covers, vent grilles and switch plates often cost less to replace than to clean, so they're usually swapped out. Larger surfaces like walls, ceilings and cabinets get soot removal and cleaning, and odor treatment follows wherever a smell remains.
Step 5. We rebuild and handle the paperwork
Our own crew handles the reconstruction, from drywall to paint and trim. If you're staying elsewhere, keep the power and water accounts open, since the rebuild needs both. You and the insurer both get our invoice and documentation, and we ask your carrier to pay us directly.

Wonderful experience during such a stressful time. They came out immediately, the employees were extremely polite and respectful, and kept me updated every step of the way. They also helped guide me through the insurance claims process which seemed overwhelming at first. I would definitely recommend.

Rochester Hills fire damage questions, answered
Questions we get from our customers' and our answers.
Why does my Rochester Hills house smell of smoke in rooms the fire didn't reach?
Smoke from a fire is hot and under pressure, so it squeezes into gaps around pipes, wiring and trim and slips into rooms down the hall. As it cools, it leaves a fine residue that holds the smell, even where nothing looks dark. Our inspection looks for smoke damage in every room, and the restoration process covers them all.
Will you also deal with the water from fighting the fire at my Rochester Hills home?
Yes, and we treat that water damage as one job with the fire. Water from the hoses seeps down through ceilings and under flooring where you can't see it, so drying runs alongside the soot cleanup. It usually falls under the fire claim as well, though your adjuster decides that.
Do you clean furniture and clothing after a fire in Rochester Hills?
No. We restore the house: framing, drywall, ceilings, floors and built-in cabinets. Your belongings are the job of a contents company, usually under their own part of the claim. Take photos and keep a list of damaged items before you discard anything, since your adjuster may want proof.
When can we go back into our Rochester Hills house, and what should we grab?
Firefighters or a building official decide when the house is safe, and that can take a while if the structure or utilities were hit. On a short visit, pick up medicine, glasses, wallets, phones, chargers and documents. Keep the power and gas switched off, and bin any food that sat near the heat or smoke.
Will your inspection in Rochester Hills start an insurance claim or tie me to you?
No. Nothing is filed with your insurer, and the free inspection carries no obligation. Opening a claim is the policyholder's decision, and you pick the contractor, whatever names the insurer suggests. Don't put off the board-up or drying until the adjuster visits, because insurers expect you to stop the damage from getting worse.
