Fire Damage Restoration FAQs

What does fire damage restoration include?

Fire damage restoration involves cleaning smoke and soot residue, removing odors, repairing damaged materials, and rebuilding affected areas to restore your home safely and completely.

Is fire damage only where flames were present?

No. Smoke, soot, and heat can travel throughout the home, causing damage in areas untouched by flames, including walls, ceilings, and ventilation systems.

How soon should fire damage be addressed?

As soon as possible. Delays can allow soot to permanently stain surfaces, odors to settle in, and materials to deteriorate further. Call us now at (865) 279-3717 to assess your issue immediately.

Can smoke odor be completely removed?

Yes. With professional cleaning and odor-neutralizing applications and equipment, smoke odors can be effectively eliminated for good, not just masked.

Is it safe to stay in my home after a fire?

Safety depends on the extent of the damage. Fire can compromise structural elements and air quality, so a professional inspection is recommended before occupying the space.

Will my insurance cover fire damage restoration?

Most homeowner insurance policies cover fire damage. HRC helps document losses and works directly with your insurance provider to streamline the claims process.

What should I do immediately after a fire?

Once authorities confirm it’s safe, avoid touching damaged areas and contact a professional restoration company. Soot and smoke residue can worsen damage if disturbed improperly.

Can fire damage cause long-term air quality issues?

Yes. Smoke particles can linger in HVAC systems and porous materials, affecting indoor air quality if not properly treated.

What happens to my belongings after a fire?

Items are evaluated individually. Many belongings can be cleaned and restored, while others may need replacement. We help document everything for insurance purposes.

How long does fire damage restoration take?

Timelines vary depending on the severity of damage. Minor smoke damage may take days, while larger structural repairs may take longer.
