Frequently Asked Questions
Real questions from Northern California homeowners
Can smoke damage be cleaned or does everything need replacement?
Many smoke-damaged items can be professionally restored if addressed quickly. Porous materials may need replacement, but hard surfaces, electronics, and many textiles can often be saved with proper cleaning techniques.
How long does smoke odor last without treatment?
Untreated smoke odor can persist for months or years as particles embed in materials. Professional odor elimination using thermal fogging or ozone treatment is the only way to permanently remove smoke smell.
Is smoke damage covered by insurance?
Yes, homeowner's insurance typically covers smoke damage from fires, including cleanup, restoration, and content cleaning. We document all damage and work directly with insurance adjusters.
