What to expect during the commercial fire damage repair process.
If fire or smoke has damaged your property, trust our professionals to provide expert fire restoration, smoke damage cleanup and even assist with water damage caused by extinguishing the fire. From a damage assessment to full remodeling, we'll be by your side through the entire process.
Even with a small fire, the damage isn't always isolated to that room or space. Our fire damage restoration experts will go through the entire structure to assess the extent of any losses. We'll then develop a restoration plan and estimate based on our findings. With this assessment complete, one of our professionals will explain everything to you and answer any questions you might have about next steps.
A devastating fire can leave your home or business exposed to the elements and compromise security. With CRC, you don't have to worry about these issues. We'll properly board up your property, including any broken windows, damaged doors and even the roof if needed.
CRC specializes in methodically cleaning fire, smoke, soot and water damage. Our cleanup process includes each of these vital steps:
- Use pumps, industrial-strength fans and dehumidifiers to remove all water and dry out carpet, furniture, drywall, wood and other materials
- Remove smoke and soot residue from the walls and other surfaces using specialized equipment and cleaning methods
- Address smoke odors utilizing a portable filtration system (air scrubber)
- Clean, deodorize and restore any belongings or structural materials that can be salvaged, then discard irreparable items according to insurance guidelines and with your approval
Once the cleanup is complete, CRC will work with you and your insurance company to fully restore your property to its pre-fire state. Our subcontractors are licensed, insured and vetted for their professionalism. From rebuilding your entire kitchen floor to ceiling to restoring your store front, no fire restoration project is too big or too small.
