Residential Firefighting Damage Services in Englewood, CO

Helping You Get Back to Normal After a Fire 

A fire can be one of the most traumatic experiences a homeowner will ever face, and when the flames are finally out, there’s still work to be done to restore your home to its original state. At ServiceMaster Fire and Water Restoration, we understand the challenges that come after the fire trucks leave. Firefighting can leave behind significant water damage. That’s why we’re available 24/7, 365 days a year, ready to step in and help homeowners recover with compassionate, professional care.

What Our Services Entail

Firefighting damage services go beyond traditional water extraction. After a fire, it’s common to find standing water, soaked furniture, and lingering moisture throughout your home from the efforts to extinguish the flames. This water damage can be a hidden risk, creating the perfect conditions for mold growth, weakening structural materials, and damaging your belongings.

Our services are designed to tackle this problem efficiently. By extracting water, drying the affected areas, and addressing potential mold, we ensure that the damage stops with the fire. This comprehensive approach is crucial for your family’s health and your home’s safety, helping you get back to a space that feels fully comfortable once more.

Other damage that can occur includes:

• Odor Penetration: The longer smoke odors linger, the more they permeate materials like carpets, curtains, and insulation. This can make your home uncomfortable and unhealthy, with odors becoming harder to eliminate the longer they remain untreated.
• Electrical Hazards: Water intrusion can affect electrical systems, increasing the risk of short circuits, malfunctions, or even additional fires. Damaged wiring left unattended poses a significant safety threat.
• Structural Instability: Prolonged exposure to water, soot, and heat can weaken load-bearing structures, leading to potential collapse or extensive repairs down the line.

Our Restoration Process 

Our team follows a clear, step-by-step process to bring your home back to its pre-fire condition with as little disruption as possible:

1. Remove Any Remaining Water: The first step is to remove any standing water left by the firefighting efforts. Our powerful pumps and extractors are designed to handle even large amounts of water quickly, giving us a clean slate to start the rest of the restoration process.
2. Drying and Dehumidification: After water removal, we use high-speed air movers and dehumidifiers to dry out floors, walls, and furniture, ensuring that no hidden pockets of moisture are left behind. This step is vital to prevent warping, swelling, and other structural issues that water damage can cause.
3. Mold Remediation: Mold can start growing in as little as 24-48 hours in moist environments. We thoroughly inspect for mold and, if necessary, perform mold remediation to ensure a safe, healthy home environment. Addressing this issue early can prevent larger, more costly mold issues down the line.
4. Restoration with Advanced Tools and Technology: Finally, we restore your home using advanced tools and technology. This includes cleaning, deodorizing, and making necessary structural repairs. From rebuilding walls to eliminating smoke odor, our team brings your home back to a comfortable and welcoming condition.
