Reasons St. Clair County homeowners call us after a fire
We're on site in about an hour
Please don't climb a ladder in the dark to cover a broken window yourself, since footing around a burned house is poor. Our 24/7 line reaches a person, the emergency service covers homes and commercial properties, and a crew with board-up materials usually arrives in about an hour.
A free inspection of the fire damage
The inspection is free. Before we leave, ask us what happens next: what to do tonight, who to call in the morning and when the crew comes back. We're an IICRC Certified Firm, IICRC certified for fire and smoke restoration and odor control.
We work directly with your insurance company
We work with any insurance company and send our documentation to your adjuster ourselves. If your insurer asks you to upload photos and documents through its app and that's hard to manage, ask for another way to send them, such as email or regular mail.
We help you get the most from your claim
Once you're focused on the inside, it's easy to forget the outside: soot above the windows, heat-warped siding, a melted light fixture or a scorched deck rail. We add those to the insurance claim with the rest and ask for full coverage of each, though the insurer decides the amount.
Financing if you need it
Insurers often pay to repaint only the rooms with smoke damage. If you'd like the hallway and the rooms beside it repainted so the colors match, financing can cover that, along with extra cleaning, your deductible or other work the claim 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...

St. Clair County fire damage repair in five steps
Step 1. You call and we secure the house
Call our 24/7 line from somewhere safe; after the fire department lets us in, a crew closes broken windows and doors with board-up. If officials allow it first, remove anything valuable that can be seen through the openings, like a laptop, jewelry or medication.
Step 2. We inspect the fire and smoke damage
Acrylic and fiberglass tub surrounds and shower bases can warp or yellow from heat even when the flames stayed in the next room. Our technician checks them, along with mirrors, vanity tops and the smoke residue on bathroom walls, and photographs each room.
Step 3. We remove water, soot and debris
Firefighters often pull down wet insulation and drywall and leave it in piles, and those piles keep the floor underneath soaked. They go out as debris first, then water extraction and drying equipment work on the subfloor and the walls around it.
Step 4. We clean and deodorize
Light fixtures and bulbs coated with soot can give off a burnt smell each time they warm up, so the inside of each fixture gets cleaned, not just the shade. Walls, ceilings and trim get soot removal next, and deodorizing deals with any lingering smell.
Step 5. We rebuild and handle the paperwork
Reconstruction is ours as well. If heat reached the well pump or water lines, test the water before drinking it, and St. Clair County's Health Department says private well owners are responsible for that sampling. You and the insurer get our invoice, which asks for direct payment.

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.

Fire damage questions we hear in St. Clair County
Questions we get from our customers' and our answers.
The fire stayed in one room, so why is there soot in the far rooms of our St. Clair County home?
Once windows break or firefighters open the house, wind can rush in and push smoke deeper inside instead of letting it out. Heat drives it the same way, along hallways and up the stairs. Wherever it goes, it leaves residue that carries odor, even on walls that look clean, so our restoration process takes in every room the smoke reached.
Will you dry out the firefighting water in our St. Clair County house?
Yes, that's part of the same fire job. Hose water collects at the bottom of wall cavities behind the baseboards, where it sits unseen and can feed mold. We handle the water extraction and drying, opening the base of a wall where we need to. The fire claim generally covers that water damage as well, with your adjuster confirming the details.
Can you clean the furniture and clothes from our St. Clair County house fire?
No, and better to know that now. We work only on the house itself: framing, drywall, ceilings, flooring and the cabinetry that's part of it. Furniture, clothing and electronics go to a contents company instead, and your policy probably lists them under separate coverage. List and photograph each damaged item before it's thrown away, and bring contents up with your adjuster early.
When is it safe to go back into our St. Clair County home, and what can we take?
That's decided by firefighters or a building official, who may keep everyone out while the structure, wiring or gas is in question. Given a brief visit, collect medicine, glasses, keys, phones, wallets and documents. Don't turn utilities back on yourself, and throw away food the smoke or heat got to.
Does an inspection of our St. Clair County home open a claim or bind us to you?
No. There's no charge, nothing is sent to your insurer, and hiring us stays optional. Only the policyholder can start a claim, and you decide which contractor does the work, even if the insurer names one. Start the board-up and water removal before the adjuster visits, because a policy expects you to keep the damage from growing.
