Wet to Dry, start to finish
A fire changes everything. We handle the next part.
Recovering from a fire is about more than the building. We take over the structure (board-up, soot, the water left by firefighting, odor and the rebuild) so you can focus on your people.
You get clear steps, honest updates and one crew, instead of juggling contractors during the hardest week of your year.

Questions
Fire & Smoke Damage FAQ
How soon after a fire should restoration start?
As soon as the fire department says it is safe to enter. Soot becomes harder to clean with time, and the water left from firefighting starts its own damage within a day or two.
Why does the smoke smell keep coming back?
Smoke gets into insulation, framing, ductwork and fabrics. Airing out and air fresheners only cover it. Lasting odor removal treats the materials that hold it.
Do you handle the water damage from firefighting?
Yes. It is part of every fire job: extraction, drying and moisture monitoring so mold does not become a second problem.
Will you work with my insurance company?
Yes. We document the loss with photos and a detailed scope and coordinate with your insurer when applicable.
