Why Shelby Township homeowners trust us with fire cleanup
We're on site in about an hour
We can often be on the way while firefighters are still packing up, so boarding up can begin the moment they hand the house back. Our phones are answered 24/7, and our emergency service reaches homes and commercial properties alike, usually within about an hour.
A free inspection of the fire damage
We inspect at no charge as an IICRC Certified Firm, IICRC certified for fire and smoke restoration and odor control. When a fire starts in an attached garage, smoke often travels through the shared wall and the entry door, so we inspect both sides of that wall.
We work directly with your insurance company
We work with every insurance company and speak with your adjuster for you. If the claim goes quiet for a while, we follow up and find out what the adjuster still needs, and our photos and room-by-room documentation are ready to send.
We help you get the most from your claim
When fire ruins part of a continuous floor or a run of cabinets, replacing only that part can leave a visible mismatch. We document how the pieces connect for your adjuster and ask for everything the policy allows, though the insurer has the final say.
Financing if you need it
A house left open into winter takes more damage, so it helps to close in the outside walls and windows before the cold sets in, even if the claim isn't settled. Financing can pay for that work now, as well as your deductible or costs your coverage leaves out.

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...

Our fire damage repair steps in Shelby Township
Step 1. You call and we secure the house
Once everyone is safe, call our emergency line and let us know whether the utilities were shut off and the fire department has released the house. We cover broken windows, doors and any wall openings with temporary board-up so the house stays secure while it's empty.
Step 2. We inspect the fire and smoke damage
Our technician notes which doors were shut during the fire, because a closed bedroom often has far less smoke damage than an open one beside it. That helps decide room by room whether a light cleaning will do or whether drywall, trim and flooring need replacing.
Step 3. We remove water, soot and debris
Burned cabinets and countertops come out as debris, down to sound material, and a scorched backsplash wall usually goes with them. Water extraction handles the hose water, drying equipment goes in, and the wall behind the range is checked for heat damage before new cabinets go in.
Step 4. We clean and deodorize
Soot on siding, soffits and the trim around windows gets washed off too, since smoke that vented outside stains the house and can smell near open windows. Inside, soot removal and deodorizing cover every room the smoke reached, closets and cabinets included.
Step 5. We rebuild and handle the paperwork
Our own team does the reconstruction, matching trim profiles, paint colors and flooring to the rooms that weren't damaged. When the work is done, the final invoice and job records go to both you and the insurer, with a request that payment come straight to us.

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.

Shelby Township fire damage questions
Questions we get from our customers' and our answers.
The fire was in one room of my Shelby Township home, so why do the bedrooms smell?
Smoke climbs stairways and slips under doors, and once it cools, it leaves residue on walls, closet shelves and carpet far from the fire. Much of that residue is too fine to see, but it carries the smell. That's why our restoration process goes room by room, not just where the fire was.
Do you also deal with the hose water in my Shelby Township home after a fire?
Yes. Firefighting leaves a lot of water behind, and it soaks into hardwood, subfloors and lower-level drywall, where that water damage can warp wood and lead to mold. We extract and dry that water as part of the fire job. It usually falls under the same fire claim, though your adjuster confirms the details.
Can you restore our sofas, clothing and keepsakes after a fire in Shelby Township?
No, we don't. We repair the structure itself: drywall, ceilings, floors, cabinets, framing and trim. A separate contents company handles personal belongings, and your policy probably covers those under a different section of the claim. Take photos and write down each item before anything goes to the curb, and ask your adjuster how they want it listed.
How soon can I go back into my Shelby Township home, and what should I take?
The fire department or a building official decides when the house is safe to enter, and we don't overrule them. If you're allowed a quick trip inside, take medication, glasses, your phone, wallet, ID and important documents. Leave the electricity and gas alone, and throw away food that smoke or heat touched.
Will your free inspection in Shelby Township start a claim or lock me into hiring you?
It does neither. Our inspection files nothing, and only you, the policyholder, can open an insurance claim. Who does the work is your decision, even if the insurer suggests another company. Don't wait for the adjuster to approve securing the house and removing water, because your policy requires reasonable steps to stop more damage.
