What to Know
Understanding Fire and Smoke Damage
Smoke and Soot Cleanup
We start each job with a thorough fire damage inspection to assess what areas have been affected, including closets, drawers, and blinds. The corrosive nature of soot requires expertise to ensure surfaces and contents are properly cleaned and restored. KPM Restoration is IICRC certified for work in smoke-damaged structures and OSHA Hazwoper-40 certified for handling chemicals or other contaminants after a fire.
Puff Back Cleanup
Puff backs are most common in oil-fired appliances like heaters and furnaces. When oil builds up in the ignition chamber and finally ignites, it sends oily soot and smoke through your heating system and out every vent. The residue covers floors, walls, furniture, blinds, clothing, and carpets. We use specialized cleaning techniques and materials to properly remove the soot, stains, and odors.
We Work With Your Insurance
A fire can be extremely stressful. We are here to make the recovery process as smooth as possible. We treat you and your possessions with respect, provide professional fire and smoke cleanup, and work with your insurance company through the entire claims process.
How Fire Damage Restoration Works
From emergency response to handing back the keys, we manage every phase of your fire damage recovery.
Emergency Board-Up and Securing
We secure your property immediately, boarding windows, tarping roofs, and stabilizing structures to prevent further damage, weather exposure, and unauthorized entry.
Documentation and Insurance
Every inch of fire, smoke, soot, and water damage is thoroughly documented with photos, scope reports, and Xactimate estimates. We meet with you and your adjuster to agree on the restoration plan.
Water Removal and Drying
We extract all firefighting water, set up commercial drying equipment, and monitor moisture levels to prevent mold growth.
Smoke, Soot, and Odor Removal
All surfaces are professionally cleaned. We use thermal fogging and hydroxyl generators to permanently eliminate smoke odors. If needed, we pack out contents to our facility for off-site cleaning and safe storage.
Reconstruction
Our crews handle the full rebuild: framing, drywall, flooring, paint, and any other repairs needed to restore your property to pre-loss condition. One contractor from start to finish.
