Fire Damage Restoration in Roswell, GA

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 is extracted from the crawlspace and subfloor and the structure is dried before it drives mold in Georgia’s humid climate.
Soot & smoke cleaning
Surfaces, contents and the HVAC 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.
