THE PROCESS

At RESTO-MAX, the very first step in every fire and smoke damage project is the same, we take steps to clean the air and return it to a safe quality level. Fires and smoke give off pollutants that not only leave harsh odors but are also harmful to you and your loved ones’ health. You will notice our technicians wear full- and half-face respirators; this is for their own health and safety during the project.

1. Removing damaged components 

Any unsafe components that are not able to be restored are removed from the home. Trying to cover up these problems will worsen them in the long run 

2. Treating for odor and contamination

If framing can be saved, we treat it with odor counteractants that ensure no microbial contamination is present.

 3. Removing flooring

 To prevent the collection of soot, dust, and other harmful elements, we remove any floor coverings that could promote an unhealthy or unsafe environment.

4. Evaluating structural framing 

We make sure the unseen parts of the house, such as framing and subfloor material, are up to safety standards. 

5. Cleaning salvageable material and content 

At RESTO-MAX we are trained in cleaning any of your salvageable material or content from a fire. We know how valuable your belongings are and take extra care to help preserve and restore all that we can. 

6. Reconstruction

If your home needs any new sheetrock, doors or other construction components as a result of a fire, RESTO-MAX can help you with the reconstruction. We consider it our responsibility to return your home to pre-loss conditions. Also, we can provide recommendations regarding trusted contractors who can take on larger projects.

7. Final Inspection

Before leaving the premises, we conduct a thorough inspection to ensure that no signs of smoke, fire or water damage remain. The job isn’t done until you are satisfied with it, and this means that we are willing to retreat any areas that are still showing signs of damage.

HELPING YOU WITH INSURANCE CLAIMS

If you are making a claim with your insurance company, RESTO-MAX can help facilitate the process and lessen the burden on the homeowner by preserving photographic evidence and providing all necessary documentation. We respond promptly to your requests for this documentation when it’s needed.
