Lewiston, NY Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration

Fires are a violent and threatening situation for homes and businesses in the area. When fire events damage Niagara County properties, we can mitigate losses in even large properties like Mt. St. Mary's Hospital.

What Emergency Services Are Common After Lewiston Housefires?

Fire debris removal, content relocation, and water removal services are often among the chief mitigation actions when our team first arrives at a disaster. The efforts spent to protect contents and the structure can make restoration processes more efficient, such as:

  • fire damaged homes 
  • fire damage restoration 
  • fire and smoke damage 
  • smoke remediation 

Can Smoke Damage Removal Include Odors?

Smoke remediation is a general term meant to describe many actions taken to clean up and restore post-fire effects in area homes and businesses. One of the obstacles properties face is the formidable smells often generated by combustion. From the burning of plastics and aerosols, odors left behind can require immediate attention. We have deodorization tools, products, and practices to neutralize noxious scents after a fire.

Cleaning Up Lewiston Homes After Soot Damage

Soot can be one of the greatest restoration obstacles, primarily because its composition and threat level vary considerably from one affected surface to the next. Careful consideration is necessary to determine the best approach for cleaning and removal to protect underlying material substrates whenever possible.
