Our team carries contents cleaning & pack-out from emergency board-up and soot cleanup all the way to structural rebuild and contents restoration. Because acidic soot etches surfaces fast, our crews act rapidly, document the loss for your insurer, and ensure every impacted area is fully restored.

  • One licensed team from cleanup to rebuild
  • Cleanup through complete structural rebuild
  • Careful cleanup that safeguards your property
  • Contents pack-out, cleaning, and storage

Signs you need contents cleaning and pack-out

Your belongings can often be saved, but not by leaving them in a soot- and smoke-filled space. These are signs to pack them out.

  • Soot and smoke on your belongings

    Furniture, clothing, and keepsakes coated in soot keep degrading until they are cleaned in a controlled setting.

  • Items sitting in a damaged space

    Belongings left in a room being cleaned or rebuilt are at risk and often need to be moved out to be protected.

  • Smoke odor in fabrics and upholstery

    Soft goods holding a strong smoke smell need specialized off-site cleaning to fully remove the odor.

  • Valuables needing careful handling

    Electronics, documents, and heirlooms often need specialized cleaning that is safer done off-site.

  • No safe place to store things

    When the home isn't secure or clean, packing contents out to safe storage protects them during the work.

Seeing any of these in Philadelphia? Don't wait. Call (844) 810-6096 for a fast, no-pressure assessment.

What our contents cleaning & pack-out includes

A complete, professional process from first response to final restoration.

  • Inventory & pack-out

    Carried out by certified crews with the commercial tools this step actually needs.

  • Off-site contents cleaning

    Photographed and logged as we work, so your insurer sees exactly what was done.

  • Soft-goods & textile cleaning

    Scoped and priced before the staff starts, so the number you hear is the number you pay.

  • Secure storage & pack-back

    Handled by the same staff from the first visit to the last, with one point of contact throughout.

How Our Process Works

Here's how our crew handles contents cleaning & pack-out from the first call to the final walkthrough.

  1. Emergency Assessment

    A certified technician evaluates the fire loss on arrival and walks you through what happens next.

  2. Soot & Smoke Removal

    We remove the residue immediately, then deodorize with thermal fogging and air scrubbing.

  3. Deodorize & Treat

    Surface cleaning alone won't cut it, so we deodorize the air and materials until the smoke smell is gone for good.

  4. Restore to Pre-Loss

    We rebuild the structure and refinish every surface, then return your cleaned contents so the property feels whole again.

Why fast action matters

Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out is time-sensitive. The longer you wait, the more it spreads and the more it costs.

  • It gets worse over time

    Left untreated, the problem spreads and becomes harder and costlier to resolve.

  • Secondary damage

    Delays often lead to additional damage to materials, structure, or surrounding areas.

  • Health and safety risks

    Situations like this can carry real health or safety risks until they're properly handled.

Fire Damage in Philadelphia: What to Know

Straight answers on how fire damage restoration works, what it costs, and how insurance fits in, so you know what to expect before you call.

  • The Types of Smoke Residue

    Fires leave wet smoke, dry smoke, protein residue, or fuel-oil soot, and each one bonds to surfaces differently. Identifying the residue type is what determines the right cleaning method, because the wrong one can set a stain permanently.

  • Why Smoke Odor Lingers

    Smoke particles are small enough to penetrate drywall, insulation, and ductwork, so a room can look clean yet still smell. Surface cleaning isn't enough. Thermal fogging, ozone, and hydroxyl treatment neutralize the odor at its source.

  • Why Board-Up Can't Wait

    Open windows and a damaged roof expose your property to weather, theft, and further loss, and insurers expect you to mitigate. Emergency board-up and roof tarping in the first hours protects the structure while the cleanup is planned.

  • Soot Is Acidic, and Time Matters

    Within hours, acidic soot begins to etch glass, corrode metal and electronics, and stain walls. The sooner soot and smoke residue are removed, the more of your home and belongings can be saved.

  • One Team: Cleanup Through Rebuild

    We handle the whole recovery under one roof, covering board-up, soot and smoke cleanup, deodorization, and full structural rebuild back to pre-loss condition, so you never have to hand off to a second contractor mid-project.

What our crew handles

Our Fire Damage Services in Philadelphia

Full-service fire recovery for every kind of fire, residential and commercial, from emergency board-up and soot removal to complete rebuild.

  • Smoke Damage Cleanup

    Greasy smoke film settles into plaster and old wood trim fast, staining longer the more it sits. Pre-1940 rowhouse interiors, roughly 41 percent of the city's housing, hold onto residue where modern drywall would not. Our crew clears it before it sets.

    See Smoke Damage Cleanup details

  • Soot Removal

    Acidic soot gets to work fast, etching glass and pitting metal within hours of a fire. Original fixtures and glass in Germantown and Old City rowhouses are especially vulnerable. We start with dry chemical sponges, moving to wet soot cleaning wherever the dry pass alone cannot finish the job.

    More about Soot Removal

  • Fire Damage Cleanup

    Once the fire is knocked down, the rowhouse is still left holding char, ash, and the water crews used to douse it. Narrow rowhouse blocks and tight alleys call for staged debris removal, not a driveway dumpster. Our crew clears and stabilizes the site so repairs can start.

    More about Fire Damage Cleanup

  • Smoke Odor Removal

    Covering up a smoke smell only holds it back for a while, it always resurfaces. Thermal fogging, ozone treatment, hydroxyl generators, and HEPA air scrubbing break it down at the source instead. Smoke that crosses a shared party wall can leave odor in a unit that never burned.

    How our Smoke Odor Removal works

  • Structural Repair & Rebuild

    Bringing a room back to pre-loss condition means real reframing, re-drywalling, and refinishing, not just paint. A 19th-century rowhouse gets matched plaster, trim, and masonry details so repaired rooms blend with the block. A single licensed crew sees the job through.

    See Structural Repair & Rebuild details

  • Emergency Board-Up & Tarping

    We close up openings and get a tarp on the roof within hours, never days. A fire-damaged rowhouse on a dense block is exposed to weather and to the attached houses on both sides. Same-day securing keeps a bad situation from spreading further down the row.

    More about Emergency Board-Up & Tarping

  • Fire & Water Damage Restoration

    Firefighting water runs down party walls into basements across the whole row, not just the fire unit. Left standing, those materials start growing mold within days. Our crew extracts water and structurally dries the property first, then moves into soot and smoke cleanup.

    More about Fire & Water Damage Restoration

  • Commercial Fire Damage Restoration

    Downtime costs a business money every day it stays closed, so we size our crew to the loss rather than making every job wait in line. Chinatown and Italian Market restaurant rows deal with grease fires and commercial exhaust systems, and get priority scheduling and after-hours work to reopen sooner.

    How our Commercial Fire Damage Restoration works

  • Puff-Back Cleaning

    When a furnace puffs back, it can coat walls, ceilings, and ductwork in oily black soot within minutes. Oil-fired heat is historically common in older Northeastern housing, and when it happens our crew uses degreasing agents built for oily soot, not standard smoke cleaning methods.

    More about Puff-Back Cleaning

  • Wildfire Smoke Remediation

    Regional wildfire smoke can occasionally drift into the mid-Atlantic during dry, windy stretches, settling ash and fine particles onto a home with no flame ever touching the structure. Our crew removes exterior ash, runs HEPA filtration, and deodorizes the interior until the air is clear.

    See Wildfire Smoke Remediation details

  • Duct & HVAC Smoke Cleaning

    Smoke pulled into forced-air ducts keeps recirculating soot and odor long after the cleanup looks finished. About 72 percent of the city's housing predates 1960, much of it still running older duct and furnace systems, so duct cleaning paired with HEPA filtration is often the step people skip.

    How our Duct & HVAC Smoke Cleaning works

  • Chimney Fire Cleanup

    Original chimneys and fireplaces sit in pockets of Chestnut Hill, Mount Airy, Germantown, Manayunk, and Old City, not every home, but enough that fires happen. Our crew handles the soot and smoke damage around the firebox and nearby walls. Skip relighting until a pro inspects the flue.
