At Apex Restoration, our fire damage restoration process is comprehensive and thorough. We start with a professional inspection to assess the extent of damage and identify safety hazards. Our certified technicians then secure your property with board-up services for windows and doors, and roof tarping if needed. We remove any water used in firefighting with pumps and vacuums, followed by industrial-grade drying and dehumidification to prevent mold growth. We use specialized techniques and equipment to clean soot and smoke residues from all surfaces, then employ deodorization methods like air scrubbers and fogging to eliminate smoke odors. Finally, we handle all structural repairs – from walls and floors to roofs – and complete the restoration with finishing touches like painting and carpeting to return your home to its pre-fire condition.

The timeline varies significantly based on the extent of damage. Minor fire damage might take several days to a week, while extensive damage can require several weeks or even months for complete restoration. At Apex, we provide transparent timelines during our initial assessment and keep you informed throughout the process. Our goal is to restore your property efficiently while maintaining our high-quality standards.

Most homeowners insurance policies do cover fire damage restoration, but coverage specifics vary by policy. At Apex Restoration, we work directly with your insurance company to streamline the claims process. We provide detailed documentation, photos, and estimates to support your claim. Our team coordinates with your insurance adjuster to ensure you receive the coverage you're entitled to, making the process as smooth as possible during this stressful time.

Your safety is the top priority. Never re-enter your property until it's declared safe by authorities. Once safe, contact your insurance company immediately to report the damage. Document everything with photos and videos for your claim. Then call Apex Restoration at (801) 513-1137 for emergency services. We typically arrive within 60 minutes and are available 24/7. We'll secure your property and begin the restoration process while working with your insurance company.

Our certified technicians use specialized equipment and techniques to remove soot and smoke from all surfaces, including walls, ceilings, furniture, and HVAC systems. We employ professional-grade cleaning products designed specifically for fire damage. Our process includes thorough sanitization of affected areas and advanced deodorization techniques like ozone treatments and thermal fogging to neutralize smoke odors and improve indoor air quality.

For your safety and health, it's generally not safe to remain in a fire-damaged home. Structural damage, smoke residues, and potential contaminants create health risks. Our team will assess your specific situation and advise when it's safe to return. We understand this displacement is difficult, which is why we work efficiently to restore your home as quickly as possible while maintaining safety standards.

Our restoration experts carefully assess each item to determine what can be cleaned and restored. We use professional-grade equipment and techniques to restore fabrics, furniture, electronics, and personal belongings when possible. Items with sentimental or high value often receive special attention. We'll work with you to prioritize which belongings are most important to salvage and provide honest assessments about what can be successfully restored.

Mold prevention is crucial after firefighting efforts. We immediately extract all water used to extinguish the fire using pumps and vacuums. Then we deploy industrial-grade fans and dehumidifiers to thoroughly dry the structure. Our team monitors moisture levels throughout the process to ensure complete drying, preventing mold growth that could compound your property damage.

Absolutely. Even small fires can cause hidden damage and health risks from smoke and soot residues. Smoke can penetrate areas you might not see, and improper cleaning can spread contaminants. Our professional assessment identifies all affected areas and ensures proper cleaning and deodorization. At Apex, we provide free estimates, so there's no cost to have us evaluate the situation professionally.
