Fire and smoke damage restoration

Fire Damage Is More Than What Burns

After a fire, the visible destruction is only part of the story. Toxic smoke and soot travel far beyond the flames, penetrating walls, ductwork, insulation, and belongings throughout your property. Without professional remediation, smoke odors and corrosive residue continue causing damage for months.

Everest Restoration’s fire damage team provides a complete response — from emergency board-up and tarping to full structural rebuilding. We use thermal fogging, ozone treatment, and HEPA air scrubbers to eliminate smoke odor at the molecular level, not just mask it.

We serve Kirkland, Bellevue, Redmond, Seattle, and all of Greater Eastside WA with a 60-minute response guarantee.

Our Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Process

1

Emergency Securing

We immediately board up windows, doors, and roof openings to prevent weather intrusion, theft, and further damage.

2

Damage Assessment

A detailed inspection documents all fire, smoke, and water damage (from firefighting efforts) for your insurance claim.

3

Water Removal

We extract all water used to extinguish the fire — preventing secondary water damage and mold growth.

4

Soot & Smoke Cleanup

Specialized sponges, chemical sponges, and HEPA vacuums remove soot from all surfaces, including ceilings, walls, and contents.

5

Odor Elimination

Thermal fogging, hydroxyl generators, and ozone treatment permanently neutralize smoke odors throughout the property.

6

Full Reconstruction

Charred structural elements, drywall, flooring, cabinets, and finishes are replaced and restored to pre-loss condition.

Types of Fire & Smoke Damage We Restore

Each fire behaves differently depending on what burned. Our technicians are trained in all fire damage types and use the right approach for each material and residue type.

🔥 Structural Fire Damage

Charred framing, melted wiring, collapsed ceilings — we assess structural integrity and perform safe, code-compliant rebuilds.

🌫️ Smoke & Soot Damage

Dry smoke, wet smoke, protein residue — each requires different cleaning agents. We identify and match the right technique to the residue type.

🏠 Kitchen Fires

Grease fires produce thick, pungent protein smoke that coats every surface. Professional deep cleaning and odor treatment is essential.

💨 Electrical Fires

Often hidden inside walls, electrical fires can cause undetected damage. We inspect all wiring areas and coordinate with licensed electricians.

💧 Firefighting Water Damage

Thousands of gallons of water are used to fight fires. We combine fire restoration with water damage remediation in a single coordinated project.

🏢 Commercial Fire Damage

Business interruption costs money. We prioritize rapid response and efficient rebuild timelines for commercial and multi-unit properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do immediately after a fire?
Ensure everyone’s safety and call 911 first. Once the fire is out and authorities clear the property, call us at (425) 866-3940. Do not attempt to clean soot yourself — improper cleaning can permanently stain surfaces. Avoid turning on HVAC systems as this spreads smoke particles.
How long does fire damage restoration take?
Minor smoke damage may be resolved in 1-2 weeks. Moderate structural damage typically takes 3-6 weeks. Severe fires requiring full reconstruction can take 2-6 months. We provide a detailed timeline and milestone schedule after our initial assessment.
Does insurance cover fire damage restoration?
Yes — fire damage is one of the most consistently covered perils in standard homeowner’s and commercial insurance policies. We work directly with your carrier and can help ensure all damage is properly documented and included in your claim.
Can smoke smell ever be fully eliminated?
Yes, with professional-grade ozone treatment, thermal fogging, and hydroxyl generation. Store-bought sprays only mask the odor. Our equipment treats the molecular compounds that cause smoke smell, permanently eliminating it.
