Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration | Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to repair fire damage?
The length of time it takes to repair your home after fire damage ultimately depends on the extent of the damage. Small issues could take a few days to repair but more extensive damage could take several weeks or months.
Nothing in the process should be overlooked so that the integrity of your home isn’t compromised. We know how much you want to be back in your home which is why we’ll work as quickly as we can to restore your home after a fire.
Can I paint over smoke damage?
Painting over smoke damage without the complete restoration process is like painting over mold without removing it. All this does is cover up the problem without getting rid of the smoke damage which is harmful to your and your family’s health.
So, technically you can paint over smoke damage, but the damaged areas won’t be truly repaired.
Rather, you should have your home examined and restored by a damage restoration company. Our smoke damage restoration specialists, for example, won’t leave any stone unturned and will take every measure necessary to restore your home.
