How the services fit together
Fire restoration in Phoenix follows a sequence. The house is secured first with board-up and roof tarping, because open windows and roof vents let in dust, monsoon rain and intruders. Water from firefighting is removed and the structure dried next, since wet materials cannot be cleaned properly and can grow mould quickly in a hot, closed house.
With the building dry, soot removal and smoke damage cleanup begin, working from ceilings down and from dry methods to wet ones. Odor removal follows cleaning, finding and treating smell at its source in insulation, ducts, cabinets and other porous materials. Sealing, painting and rebuilding complete the job.
Each page below explains one of these services in depth: how it works, warning signs, how a contractor assesses it, how the job is done, what you can safely do yourself, Phoenix-specific factors and common questions. Reading the relevant pages before you call helps you describe your situation clearly and understand the advice you receive.
This site does not perform restoration work. Your call is connected to an independent contractor, and any work is arranged between you and that contractor during the call.
Each service page also links to the neighborhood pages where that service raises particular local questions.
