Fire and smoke damage restoration
After a fire, the job is three problems at once: an open structure, smoke and soot residue, and water from firefighting. First Responders boards up and tarps the property, cleans and deodorizes smoke damage, dries the water, and rebuilds, so one company handles it from the first night to the final walkthrough.

From our customers
This is a great company to work with. They were on site within hours of first phone call. Management maintained constant contact until all work was complete which took several months. There were multiple crews all were very professional.
I love they give back to our local law enforcement, I love the work they did, I really loved my overall experience from beginning to end.
I had a great experience with First Responders after my kitchen flooded.
Fire and smoke damage restoration questions
Can smoke smell be fully removed?
In most cases, yes, when the residue is removed from surfaces and odor is treated in the structure and HVAC. Masking sprays do not work long term.
Should I clean soot myself?
No. Wiping soot can smear it deeper into surfaces. Leave it until it can be cleaned with the right products.
