Fire Damage Restoration

Fire and smoke damage can be devastating, requiring more service and expertise than an ordinary contractor or house cleaner can provide. Many different processes and techniques need to occur.

Restoring a property back to occupiable condition, following fire or smoke damage, requires expertise in removing debris, shoring and bracing, boarding up, and tarping for safety. Following securing a site, our team will assist in any needed demolition, water removal and additional cleaning-up.

Our certified experts will work to return your property to pre-loss condition by cleaning, deodorizing, refinishing and restoring hard furnishings. If not charred; furniture, draperies, and other building contents can be restored as well.

Our highly trained project managers are the best in the industry and have the capability to restore commercial, residential, and industrial properties following a fire or smoke related incident.


Following a fire, many types of contents can be salvaged. In many cases the experts at Southeast can

  • Remove smoke and soot from upholstered furnishings, draperies and building interiors and other building contents
  • Clean, deodorize, refinish and restore hard furnishings; such as desks, tables and credenzas

Fire Damage

According to the National Fire Protection Association, there were over 494,000 structure fires reported last year in the United States alone. While some of those structures weren’t salvageable, many of them were and are, with the right team. That’s where we come in. From acidic soot cleanup to odor neutralization and deodorization, Southeast technicians have the knowledge, equipment and expertise to restore any structure deemed salvageable. In addition to restoring the damage caused by the fire, we have extensive experience in water damage restoration – a common byproduct of first responder’s extinguishing efforts.

  • Emergency board up
  • Damage assessment, appraisal, valuation, estimation
  • Structural repair
  • Content inventory, restoration, and storage
  • Deodorization

Southeasts's Streamlined Process

Recovering from any kind of disaster is inherently inconvenient, and we recognize this. That’s why we strive to make the restoration process as easy, cost-effective, and efficient as possible. Our streamlined process involves everything from directly communicating with insurance agents, to using specialty techniques and equipment to minimize costs, demolition, and the amount of time your home or business is being repaired. We utilize special organizational systems to help our teams efficiently work together and expedite the restoration and insurance processes. These systems also allow us to easily keep our customers and their insurance agents up to date with the progress of the project.

The Importance of Fast Action

After a fire, time is money. Acidic soot residue from fires can discolor plastics in minutes. In just hours, it can discolor furniture, appliances, counter tops, and other unprotected materials. Within days, acidic residues may permanently discolor walls and cause metals to corrode. In addition, the water used to put out fires can cause just as much damage, if not more damage than the fire. As time goes on, the damage only gets worse, and the restoration process becomes more and more intensive. That’s why Southeast team is ready to respond within one hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year.
