Why Provo homes take this damage
Rental & multifamily fires
Dense BYU-area housing means a fire in one unit threatens several others through shared walls and stairwells.Aging wiring
Older Provo homes carry wiring that is a real ignition source and hides heat behind plaster and lath.Kitchen fires
Grease fires in shared student housing leave protein soot through common areas and units.What fire restoration actually involves
Board-up & utility shutoff
Once the fire department releases the structure, the company secures it — boarding openings and tarping the roof — and confirms utilities are safely off.
Suppression-water extraction & drying
The water used to fight the fire runs to the lowest finished level and is extracted and dried before it drives mold, even in cold winter conditions.
Soot & smoke cleaning
Surfaces, contents and the forced-air HVAC system are cleaned by residue type — dry, wet or protein soot each need a different method.
Deodorization & rebuild
Odor is neutralized at the source with thermal fog, hydroxyl or ozone, then damaged materials are rebuilt.
