Whatcom County Fire Damage Restoration Services
Comprehensive Home Fire Recovery in Whatcom County
No one expects a fire. Whether caused in the kitchen, by a forgotten candle, or in an old outlet, fires spread as quickly as they start. To make things worse, both the fire and fire extinguishing materials leave smell and residue. Soot, with its strong odor, spreads beyond the radius of the fire. If not cleaned properly, that burnt smell remains in your home. The dust from a fire extinguisher is corrosive to metals and can cause etching in windows if not removed. With ServiceMaster Restore, our fire damage restoration services go far beyond the actual damage itself. We properly clean and deodorize every affected area, so your life and home are restored to normal.

Fire Damage Restoration FAQs in Whatcom County
How long does it take to repair fire damage?
Due to the various degrees of damage and necessary repairs, it is difficult to estimate how long it will take. What you can do is speak with the experts at ServiceMaster Building Maintenance, who will evaluate the damage and provide a projected completion date.
DIY Cleanup Risks After Fire Damage
Trying to wipe away soot can actually cause it to condense, making it even harder to clean. We strongly advise hiring qualified and knowledgeable fire restoration professionals to thoroughly clean your house because attempting to clean soot can sometimes cause greater damage to impacted items.
Will I have to find an other place to stay while the fire is being restored?
That will ultimately be your decision. Nevertheless, it is a good idea to take a break from the cleaning process in order to avoid any safety hazards in addition to the stress of seeing your home in a damaged state. You may want to think about doing things like forwarding your mail to a different address, contacting your utility provider, temporarily halting services, etc. if it turns out that the procedure is taking considerably longer than you had planned.
Safety Concerns During Fire Damage Restoration
During the initial inspection, safety hazards are identified and communicated before starting work. Some safety concerns during the restoration process include trip and falling hazards, faulty electrical wiring and air quality for example.
