Why do you need professional fire and smoke damage restoration service

While smoke doesn’t cause immediate damage to the property or building, it has long-term effects that don’t just compromise the structure but also lead to numerous health risks.

Physical damage

Soot and smoke can cause discoloration of walls and ceilings, corrosion of metal components, and deterioration of building materials that compromise the structure.

Health complications

Inhalation of soot and smoke particles poses significant health issues, particularly respiratory illnesses like asthma, bronchitis, etc., and a range of cardiovascular complications.

Environmental impact

Soot and smoke lead to poor air quality, smog formation, and the release of black carbon, which in turn contributes to global warming. It is important that smoke and soot is cleaned properly after the fire to prevent further damage from occurring. Smoke and soot residuals can continue to damage the property and its contents if not cleaned correctly. Professional fire and smoke damage restoration companies have the know-how and the expertise to apply cleaning methodologies that can restore your property to the pre-fire condition

Damage to the belongings

Furniture, clothes and other household objects suffer great damage after the fire. Soot can stain upholstery and clothes permanently if not cleaned properly. Wooden furniture and vinyl flooring may also require repair and replacement.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an incredible experience with PNW Restoration after discovering water damage in our home. They were incredibly responsive, arriving at our house within a few short hours. As it was our first time dealing with a flood, we were grateful for their thorough approach. Bryan Becker, the Project Manager, and Nick Peterson, the Lead Water Technician, took the time to walk us through the damage and explain their plan to fix it. Throughout the entire process, they clearly communicated every step, ensuring we understood everything. Their daily check-ins were reassuring, and their over-communication, kept us informed and at ease. They even provided invaluable support during the frustrating insurance claim process. We highly recommend PNW Restoration for their professionalism, responsiveness, and excellent customer service. Thank you, Bryan and Nick, for making a stressful situation much more manageable!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fast  and comprehensive mitigation response. Jakeb is caring and responsive. Kylie and Nick  doing the work were professional and friendly while working hard. Restoration has  been a little more difficult with scheduling and less than reliable subcontractors.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A recent small leak in a bathroom pipe has turned into a major restoration project. We were referred to PNW Restoration and I am so glad we were. Jakeb Shelton the project manager contacted us immediately and answered all our questions (we are novices) about what to expect from our insurance company and the project. He is handling contact with the insurance adjuster, saving us a multitude of headaches. Every one of the PNW employees who have worked on the demolition phase of our project (Kylie, Nick, Wade, Brett and all the others whose names I can't recall) have been polite, accommodating and unbelievably hard workers. Every question we have asked, no matter how minor, has been answered immediately and satisfactorily. The project continues into the rebuild phase and I am confident the employees we will work with in the future will be just as great. I cannot recommend PNW Restoration more highly. Awesome, awesome customer service, too!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jake was the project manager and helped take care of a sewer line issue I was having. Brett, Kylie, and Noe came and did a tremendous job making sure all of my furniture and hardwood flooring was covered and took care of doing new vapor barrier and insulation and water cleanup under my house with little room to work in. They were flexible on timing and made sure cleanup was done well!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. PNW Restoration came to my rescue after a water damage event required the removal and demolition of my entire kitchen down to the subfloor. Jake was my remediation project manager and his team, especially Wade, Brett, and Matthew were amazing! Everyone has been extremely responsive, helpful, tidy, fun, and supportive during a very stressful time, all while helping me with my insurance company. They are a great company and willing to go above and beyond. They’ve provided all the guidance and care that you could ask for and I look forward to working with them to get the kitchen back up and running.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We really appreciate the work that PNW team did when we had major water damage from our attic, 2 floors and the crawl space. They were all extremely professional, always gave me a call to make sure that someone would be home when they came, and they respected the house and space when they were in it. They also outsourced some stuff and made sure those teams also represented them well. In all, PNW team were genuinely wonderful people and made one of the hardest periods of our life, manageable.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is smoke damage?

Smoke damage is the damage caused to the building or the property not by fire but by smoke. This includes discoloration of walls and ceilings, corrosion of building materials, staining on furniture, upholstery, and other clothing items and a foul odor even in areas that have not been directly affected by the fire. If the smoke is caused by heavy fire in the house, it is best to call professionals for help.

What is the difference between fire and smoke damage? Are they the same?

No. Fire and smoke are not the same. Fire damage refers to the direct result of flames like charring, structural damage etc. Smoke damage, on the other hand, refers to damage caused by residual particles of smoke and soot long after the fire has been extinguished.

How does the restoration process of fire and smoke damage differ?

Fire damage involves addressing the damage caused by the flames i.e. replacing items that were affected by the flames. Smoke damage, on the other hand, has a more far-reaching effect and can affect areas that were not directly engulfed in flames. Smoke damage restoration would involve thorough cleaning of the entire property followed by odor removal strategies.

How do you clean smoke damage on walls and ceilings?

At PNW Restoration, we use high-grade scrubbers and advanced cleaning solutions to remove smoke and soot stains from walls and ceilings.

Does renter insurance cover smoke damage?

Rental insurance policies generally cover smoke and fire damage but there may be certain exceptions. It is best to revisit your policy document for details or get in touch with your insurance company.

Can weed smoke damage walls?

Any type of smoke be it from candles, incense sticks, cigarettes or weed can damage walls because smoke releases residual particles that settle on surfaces.

How do you clean smoke damage from wood?

At PNW Restoration, we use specialized cleaning techniques and advanced solutions to effectively remove smoke damage from wood surfaces. Our teams carefully clean and restore furniture and other wooden items to their best possible condition, addressing both soot buildup and lingering odors. We take great care to preserve the integrity and appearance of the wood.

How much does fire damage restoration cost?

The cost of fire damage restoration can vary widely depending on the extent of the damage, the size of the property, and the specific services required. Factors such as smoke and soot cleanup, structural repairs, content restoration, and water damage from firefighting efforts all play a role in determining the total cost. At PNW Restoration, we begin by thoroughly inspecting the extent of the damage and provide a detailed estimate based on the need of the property.

Can you paint over smoke damage?

It is not advisable to paint directly over smoke stains. Make sure to thoroughly clean and scrub the area followed by applying primer to the walls before painting to prevent stains from showing through.

How to remove the smell of smoke from the house?

Removing the smell of smoke from the house requires a thorough cleaning process as smoke can permeate walls, furniture and even HVAC systems. At PNW Restoration, we use a combination of advanced techniques like HEPA filtration, thermal fogging, and ozone generators followed by cleaning and restoration to ensure a fresh, clean environment.

How to clean soot?

Soot can be abrasive and can damage delicate materials. Therefore, at PNW Restoration, we use a range of specialized cleaning techniques to effectively remove soot from a variety of surfaces and restore them to their original condition.

Can fire damage concrete?

Concrete, when exposed to extreme heat for prolonged periods can undergo significant damage. Here are some ways fire can damage concrete:-`

Surface cracking - When the concrete is subjected to high heat for prolonged periods, it releases moisture trapped inside. This causes the concrete to expand, crack and flake off.

Weakens structures - Concrete contains water and minerals that break down when exposed to intense heat. This reduces the strength and load-bearing capacity.

Discoloration - Smoke and soot stains cause discoloration of walls and ceilings thereby affecting its aesthetic appearance.

How do you eliminate smoke odor from the clothes and furniture?

Smoke odors can be persistent and therefore removing them from clothes and furniture require more than just standard cleaning.

At PNW restoration, for removing smoke odor from clothes, we use specialized detergents and a range of odor eliminating solutions like use of odor removal products, air drying, steam ironing etc. to effectively remove smoke odors from clothes.

Similarly for removing smoke odors from furniture we use a range of techniques like cleaning and vacuuming, steam cleaning, ozone treatment, deodorizing sprays etc to effectively remove smoke and soot odors from furniture.

How do you eliminate smoke odor from your car?

Removing smoke odors from your car can be challenging. At PNW Restoration, our professionals are trained in smoke odor removal techniques. We follow a comprehensive cleaning process wherein we fully clean the car interiors and HVAC systems, shampooing of carpets followed by cleaning of the upholstery. We use specialized deodorizing techniques like ozone treatment etc to make sure your car is clean and smells as fresh as new.
