  • Contents pack-out, cleaning, and storage

After the fire is out

Firefighting leaves behind water and chemical residue. Both need professional handling, fast.

  • Standing water & saturation

    The water used to extinguish a fire soaks the structure and must be extracted promptly.

  • Soot & smoke residue

    Soot is acidic and keeps damaging surfaces until it's properly cleaned.

  • Lingering smoke odor

    Smoke penetrates porous materials and needs specialized deodorization to remove.

  • Weakened structure

    Heat and water together can compromise framing and finishes that need assessment.

  • Discoloration around vents

    Staining and yellowing near HVAC registers show smoke traveled through the ductwork and spread beyond the burn area.

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

What our fire & water service includes

We handle the water left behind and the fire damage together, then rebuild.

  • Post-fire water extraction

    We remove firefighting water and dry the structure before secondary damage sets in.

  • Soot & smoke cleanup

    Surfaces and contents are cleaned of corrosive soot and smoke residue.

  • Odor removal

    Specialized deodorization neutralizes smoke odor at the source, not just masks it.

  • Structural restoration

    We repair and rebuild fire- and water-damaged areas to pre-loss condition.

How Our Process Works

We keep the process simple and transparent so you always know what's next.

  1. Emergency Assessment

    Our specialists secure the impacted area, inspect the soot and smoke, and explain the plan before any work begins.

  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 combined damage can't wait

Fire damage and water damage compound each other, and both worsen by the hour.

  • Soot keeps corroding

    Acidic soot etches metal, glass, and finishes the longer it's left in place.

  • Mold from firefighting water

    All that water creates the same mold risk as any flood if it isn't dried quickly.

  • Set-in smoke odor

    The longer smoke sits in materials, the harder and costlier it is to remove.

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

  • Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out

    We inventory everything, pack it out, and clean it off-site in secure storage while your rowhouse is repaired. Square footage here runs tight, so contents leave the property before repair work even starts. Keepsakes and furniture get itemized before they leave, then packed back in.

    More about Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out

  • 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

  • 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.
