When your home is damaged by fire, the damage may seem minor, but if not properly documented, it may lead to more problems later. Without professional help, your insurance company may deny any future claims. Fire restoration services to help you document the damage and file accurate claims. In many cases, fire restoration services take over before your insurance company does. They can help you rebuild your home or business after a fire. ECOS Environmental is one such company.

The cost of fire damage restoration

The cost of fire damage restoration can be expensive, especially if you lose time or have several items to be restored. Fortunately, there are many ways to minimize your cost. By following a few simple guidelines, you can avoid the rising costs of fire restoration. First, prevent fire from spreading. In the event that a fire occurs, it is best to contact a professional fire damage restoration company as soon as possible. The sooner you begin the restoration process, the less expensive it will be.

Depending on the size of the fire, there are many different ways to determine the cost of fire damage restoration. The cost of simple single-fuel fires can be much less than a complex fire with artificial materials and incomplete combustion. Additionally, the cost of fire damage restoration can depend on the type of fire extinguisher used to put out the blaze. Carbon dioxide extinguishers don’t cost anything extra, but chemical extinguishers can leave toxic residues.

Steps involved in fire restoration

When a fire destroys your home, you need to be sure that you hire a fire restoration professional to help you get your property back to the way it was. They can repair the damage and clean your home while taking photos of every room so you can show your insurance company. These professionals can even consult you on prevention. They can help you identify which items can be salvaged, and they will discuss what steps are required to ensure that you do not have to replace them.

Among the most important steps involved in fire restoration is removing soot from all surfaces. Soot can ruin surfaces and the contents in a house and must be professionally removed. Even if you have a hose on hand, pipes bursting in the fire can still leave traces of soot and other harmful byproducts. A professional fire restoration company will have the right equipment and tools to remove the soot and restore the quality of the air.

Equipment used in fire damage restoration

The fire and water restoration business offers a relatively low barrier to entry. However, to be successful, it is important to purchase smart gear. In this article, we’ll take a look at the fire tools and equipment used by the pros. Whether you’re restoring a house or an apartment, the right equipment is vital to the success of your restoration project. Here’s what you need to know before you buy.

Professional fire damage restoration requires special safety equipment. Hard hats and protective clothing are essential to preventing head injuries. Heat exposure can also cause small cracks in ceilings and even chunks to fall off. Hard hats also protect workers’ eyes and neck from impacts and bumps, as well as from electrical exposure. Fire damage restoration professionals also wear chemical-resistant gloves. They can be purchased from professional restoration distribution centers. To ensure safety, it is important to wear a fire-resistance glove when handling fire-damaged materials.

Common problems with fire damage restoration

The smoke in a fire causes visible and invisible damage to your home. Fire damage restoration services use sophisticated equipment to provide superior results. You can start the restoration process by increasing ventilation in the affected area. You can use dry-cleaning sponges, rubbing alcohol, or vinegar to remove embedded particles. Trisodium phosphate is particularly helpful in releasing embedded particles. Soot removers made for smoke damage are also useful.

Water damage can also damage your possessions. Firefighting water can damage materials, causing mold growth. Firefighting chemicals also leave behind a messy mess. Using the services of fire damage restoration professionals is vital. They should also be licensed and insured. If they are not, you should avoid hiring them. Fire damage restoration companies can help you avoid these common pitfalls and get your home back to its original condition sooner.

What People Are Saying...

Working with Mario and his team at United Restoration Services was a pleasure! His team quickly came to our residence after we experienced severe water damage. They were calm, walked us through the process, and, remediated and cleaned all the damaged areas. They guided us through the claims process, and were highly professional. These situations are very stressful, and Mario's follow-up afterwards was very helpful!
United Restoration services are top notch. They cleaned a house we had been renting for the past year. No detail escaped them. The crew was professional, showed up on time, and got right to work. I have never seen such exacting attention to the cleaning process. The house sparkled after they were finished. Would totally recommend without hesitation!!!
A pipe burst, my condominium was flooded; two floors and one ceiling were ruined. Not more than a few hours passed before an entire crew showed up (at night) to begin the clean up, place five industrial-type fans between the two floors, returned the following day to continue with clean up. Members of this team continued for several days to return, remove garbage, check on wetness, etc. This group, headed by Mario Lutz was incredible.
This letter should reflect more than a thank you. This letter is authorization for you to give my name and number to anyone that requires your services. They will be told of your knowledgeable communication, ability to handle any size job, meet deadlines , and willingness to work with other contractors to ensure no delays. Thank you again for performance instead of excuses.
I cannot fully express how pleased I was with the service provided by United Restoration Services Inc. Cynthia Mason and her wonderful crew completed the job on time (very reliable), the work was above and beyond my expectations. If their service is required, I strongly recommend them.
