Service Overview

How We Approach It

Smoke odor lives in porous materials: drywall, insulation, fabric, wood. You cannot mask it with deodorizer. We neutralize odor at the molecular level using hydroxyl generators and ozone in unoccupied spaces, then verify with air quality testing before reconstruction.

What's Included

  • Soot + smoke odor removal
  • HVAC decontamination
  • Pack-out + content cleaning
  • Hydroxyl odor treatment
  • Structural rebuild
  • Insurance-scope documentation

Hvac Decontamination — the Step Most Restorers Skip

If smoke entered the HVAC system, the system needs to be cleaned per NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) standards before re-occupancy. Soot inside ductwork acts as an odor reservoir — every time the HVAC runs, it pushes that residue back into the living space. Owners report "the smoke smell came back" weeks after restoration. The reason is almost always that the ducts were not properly cleaned.

Our HVAC scope: source removal (HEPA vacuuming of supply + return ducts), antimicrobial treatment, replacement of any porous duct insulation that was contaminated, and replacement of the air handler filter + any disposable components. We document with before/after photos at multiple inspection points so the carrier sees the work was actually completed and not just billed.

For homes with old ductwork that was already in marginal condition before the fire, we will tell you honestly when replacement makes more sense than cleaning. The decision drives a different scope, different timeline, different insurance discussion — better to know on day one than discover after a partial cleaning that the system needs replacement anyway.

Content Pack-out: When to Move Your Stuff Out

For significant fires, content pack-out is the standard approach. We catalog and box everything in the affected area, transport it to our cleaning facility, sort by material type (washables / dry-clean / electronics / hard surfaces / unsalvageable), clean each appropriately, and store cleaned items in a climate-controlled environment until the property is ready for re-occupancy.

Pack-out has two big benefits beyond the cleaning itself. First: it gets your possessions out of the affected environment so they stop absorbing additional smoke odor while reconstruction runs. Second: every item is documented with a photo + condition note + cleaning result, which becomes the basis for the contents portion of the insurance claim. Items we determine are unsalvageable get documented as such, and the documentation is what supports the claim valuation.

For smaller losses where pack-out is not needed, we clean in place — same standards, same documentation, just performed at the property. Our crew brings cleaning supplies + HEPA equipment + transport bins for items that need shop work.

Process

Our Process

    You Call

    A real person answers 24/7. We get the address, the situation, what equipment to load. Two minutes max on the call.

  4. 04

    Dry It Right

    Air movers + dehumidifiers run for 3-5 days. We log moisture readings daily, reposition equipment until every wet substrate hits the dry standard.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

If you don't see your question, just call or message us.

Do you offer free estimates? +

For property losses (water, fire, storm, sewage), we provide a no-cost on-site assessment and an Xactimate scope of work. For non-emergency reconstruction or mold remediation we provide a written estimate after on-site evaluation. We do not give phone-quote prices for restoration work — accurate scoping requires seeing the loss in person.

What certifications do your technicians hold? +

Our crew holds IICRC certifications in Water Damage Restoration (WRT), Applied Structural Drying (ASD), and Applied Microbial Remediation (AMRT) per IICRC S500/S520 standards. Specific cert status of any technician on your job is available on request — we do not stretch certifications we do not actually hold.

How do you decide what materials to remove vs save? +

IICRC S500 has clear material removal criteria based on water category and how long the material was wet. Cat-1 water + reached within 24-48 hours = often save in place. Cat-3 water = porous materials always come out. Borderline cases get the moisture-meter test: substrate that returns to dry standard with equipment runtime gets saved; substrate that stalls above dry standard for 5+ days gets removed.

Can you work in occupied condo and apartment buildings? +

Yes — we have COIs ($2M general liability + workers comp, additional insured naming the building) on file for most major condo and apartment complexes in our service area. We work within building noise windows, use service elevators, and coordinate with building management on access protocols. For larger buildings we are pre-cleared for vendor approval so paperwork does not delay active-loss response.

What if I find more damage after the work is done? +

If hidden damage emerges after reconstruction completes — usually because moisture migrated through a path that was not visible during initial scoping — we re-engage at no additional charge for the warranty period (typically 1 year on workmanship). Beyond warranty, we re-evaluate as a new claim. The initial documentation we keep on file makes the second claim faster and clearer for the adjuster.

Do you handle commercial restoration? +

Yes, we handle small to mid-size commercial restoration in Middlesex County — offices, retail, medical, light industrial. Commercial work has different operational tempo than residential (tenant operations come first, after-hours noise scheduling, larger COI requirements). We have separate residential and commercial tech rotations because the workflows differ.

Are your prices in line with what insurance pays? +

Yes — our scopes are written in Xactimate at carrier-standard pricing for the NJ market. We do not inflate scope to chase coverage and we do not cut corners to under-bid. The price reflects the work IICRC standards require for the loss type. Adjusters see our scopes regularly and approve them without back-and-forth because the line items match the documented conditions.
