Understanding Fire Damage
Fire damage can be fairly minimal or worryingly extensive. It can range from minor smoke damage to total devastation of a property. But whether your concerns are over a superficial staining and smoke smell, or severe structural demolition, you will regardless want to ensure that the issue is dealt with in the shortest time frame and with the absolute and total remedying of all damage.
Professional fire damage restoration doesn’t just concern itself with removing the damaged parts or the areas affected by flames. In any fire damage restoration there will generally be primary and secondary harms to be remedied. The initial damage from the fire needs to be fixed and made safe, for sure, but there is also any water accumulation from the extinguishing of the fire to be dealt with. There are also always threats to be considered from smoke and soot, which can hang around and be hazardous to health.
In all of these elements, the importance of fire damage restoration is essential, so that the property can be returned to its normal state or better. True professionals will ensure that this is done in good time and to the highest level of quality
The Fire Damage Restoration Process We Offer
When you hire professionals through Restoration Rapid, we ensure you can benefit from a total and overarching process that runs through three important phases. At the end of the job, you can be sure that the post-fire process can be embarked on smoothly.
Initial inspection and assessment
Emergency response and mitigation
Cleaning and restoration
Initial inspection and assessment
Professionals will attend your property and conduct a thorough inspection of the damage done by the fire. They will assess and categorize everything that has been affected by the fire and create a restoration plan that will form the basis for the work to follow.
Emergency response and mitigation
Although the emergency services will have attended to extinguish the fire and provisionally make the area safe, our professional experts will deploy a team to stabilize the situation. This will include actions such as boarding up window frames, putting tarps up where roofs have been damaged, and taking care of any water that has pooled in the area.
Cleaning and restoration
At this stage, the fire damage restoration plan can go into effect. Specialist techniques are employed to rescue items that may have suffered smoke and soot damage, rendering them as good as new. Structural elements are returned to their original state and personal belongings are salvaged where possible. Finally, industrial cleaning techniques are used, with air scrubbers, deodorizers and professional cleaning agents used to restore the property to it’s pre-fire state.

Frequently Asked Questions
We’ll move quickly to ensure each stage of the work is completed without delay and the next stage can begin, although we’d recommend you allow several weeks and maybe months depending on the extent of the fire. The initial assessment should only take a day or two and the emergency mitigation will take a similar period.
Cleaning and deodorization can take between three and ten days to be done completely, and must be finished before we can begin to fully restore and repair the space. In the case of smaller fires with less damage, this can take as little as a week, but the greater the damage, the longer the process, and this can take a month or more; what’s important here is that we won’t sign off on work until it’s properly done, and this can take time.

It’s not really for us to give you a figure at this point; it really does depend on such a wide range of factors that we wouldn’t want to pull a number out of the air. The cost will reflect the extent of the work done, the equipment needed and the time it takes. We will, however, work closely with you and your insurance company to ensure that you are covered to the greatest extent possible for the work needed, minimizing out-of-pocket costs and keeping your bill as low as possible. We will provide extensive documentation to make sure that the insurer pays what is theirs to pay.
The first thing to do in case of a fire is ensure you and yours are safe and sound; nothing else matters until that is ensured. Do not enter the property until you are permitted to by fire safety officers. Once you are in a position to do so, contact Rapid Restoration, and we will begin the process of bringing things back to the way they were. Once it is safe, and only then, take pictures of the damage and keep them safe; this will assist with insurance claims and repairs. If possible, secure windows and doors to prevent unauthorized access.
