Coconut Grove, FL Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration

Assessing Damage to Coconut Grove Homes After a Fire

Fire disasters can be overwhelming for Coconut Grove homeowners, as damaging conditions can spread quickly through the property even after extinguishment occurs. With many properties that rely on being open and available to the public, such as the open-air mall CocoWalk, damage evaluations should begin as soon as possible. We have experienced and friendly project managers that can walk through damaged businesses and houses with the owner to ensure that the right information gets cataloged, including the current effects, the damaged contents, standing water concerns, and pre-existing conditions.

Smoke Damage and Fire Cleanup for Coconut Grove Structures

Combustion can lead to the production of smoke and soot damage that adheres to surfaces and contents throughout a home or business. Fires that threaten massive structures like Florida International University could impact hundreds or even thousands of students and faculty. Soot can be a dangerous presence in fire loss environments, so we employ air scrubbers and hydroxyl generators as soon as possible. 

Fire Damage Repairs and Reconstruction

As a leading fire restoration company in the region, we offer a full-service approach that provides restoration services and reconstruction as necessary. While this can benefit larger structures like Mercy Hospital, it can also save homeowners time and money on making fire losses "Like it never even happened."

Our Fire Restoration Process

Every fire damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.

Step 1: Emergency Contact

The fire restoration process begins when you call us. Our consultant will guide you through the crisis and may ask several questions to help us better understand the type of fire damage you experienced, determining the equipment and resources needed.

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

We carefully inspect and test adjoining rooms of your property to determine the extent of the fire, smoke, and soot damage. This step is crucial to developing a plan of action.

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service (if needed)

In many fire damage cases, it’s necessary to board up missing windows and walls and to place tarps on a damaged roof. This helps to maintain security and to protect against further damage. 

Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)

The water removal process begins almost immediately and removes the majority of the water. We then use dehumidifiers and air movers to remove the remaining water and complete the drying process. 

Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces

We use specialized equipment and techniques to remove smoke and soot from ceilings, walls, and other surfaces. 

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

Any restorable items will be cleaned and sanitized. We’ll use a variety of specialized cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. Our professionals will also remove smoke and other odors using advanced air scrubbing equipment and fogging devices with deodorizers.

Step 7: Restoration

Restoration is the final step—getting your home or business to its pre-fire condition. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet; or it may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
