Real, verified 5-star reviews from homeowners and businesses we've served.
“I’ve been in the property management business for over 20 years, and in that time I’ve worked with many restoration companies. KPM Restoration is hands down the best I’ve ever dealt with. From the first call through the completion of the job, their team was professional, responsive, and incredibly thorough. They communicated clearly, showed up when they said they would, and handled the entire process with a level of organization and care that is rare in this industry. Restoration work often happens during stressful situations, and KPM made the process smooth and manageable. Their workmanship and attention to detail were excellent, and they treated the property as if it were their own. If you’re looking for a restoration company that is reliable, efficient, and truly knows what they’re doing, I would highly recommend KPM Restoration.”

“KPM was incredible to work with from start to finish. I had water damage in my home and they responded quickly, arrived on time, and immediately got to work assessing the damage and explaining the restoration process to us. John and Mike were professional, knowledgeable, and very reassuring during a very stressful situation.”

What to Know
Understanding Fire and Smoke Damage
Smoke and Soot Cleanup
Smoke and soot cause damage long after the fire is out. Soot is corrosive and can permanently stain surfaces, discolor paint, and damage electronics if not cleaned quickly. We use specialized techniques to clean walls, ceilings, HVAC systems, and contents. Our technicians are IICRC certified for work in smoke-damaged structures.
Puff Back Cleanup
Puff backs happen when oil builds up in a furnace or boiler ignition chamber and finally ignites, sending oily soot through your heating system and out every vent. Schenectady's older homes with oil-fired heating systems are especially susceptible. The residue covers floors, walls, furniture, blinds, clothing, and carpets. We use specialized cleaning techniques to remove the soot, stains, and odors.
We Work With Your Insurance
We have staff who used to work for insurance companies, so we know how the claims process works from the inside. We handle your paperwork, coordinate with your adjuster, and bill your insurance directly so you can focus on getting back to normal.

Tarping a Fire-Damaged Roof in Schenectady
After a house fire, the roof is often left compromised, leaving the home exposed to rain, snow, and further water damage. This short shows our crew securing the structure with emergency roof tarping in Schenectady, the step that prevents secondary damage while the full fire restoration process begins.
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.
