Post-fire damage evaluation and air quality testing for safe restoration
After a fire, visible damage is only part of the story. Smoke particles, soot residues, and chemical byproducts can infiltrate building materials and HVAC systems, creating long-term health hazards and odor problems.
Our fire and smoke damage assessments provide property owners, restoration companies, and insurance adjusters with detailed documentation of contamination extent, air quality impacts, and proper cleaning protocols.
Thorough photographic and written documentation of fire, smoke, and soot damage
Particle analysis to measure airborne contaminants and combustion byproducts
Soot and residue sampling from walls, ceilings, and HVAC components
Evaluation of ductwork and systems for smoke infiltration and cross-contamination
Identification of persistent odor sources and neutralization recommendations
Detailed cleaning and remediation specifications for contractors and adjusters
Smoke particles, soot deposits, and airborne ash that can penetrate deep into porous materials and create respiratory hazards.
Combustion byproducts including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), acids, and other corrosive substances that continue to off-gas.
Organic materials from burned contents that create persistent odors and can support microbial growth if not properly cleaned.
Smoke infiltration into ventilation systems that can spread contaminants throughout the structure even after visible cleaning.
Unbiased assessments with no financial interest in the restoration work
Court-admissible reports with extensive photography and laboratory data
Clear, comprehensive reporting that supports claims and restoration scopes
Quick deployment to document conditions before restoration begins
