Call or text (815) 585-1750 any time, day or night, and we start putting your Clarendon Hills house back after the fire. Upstairs rooms the flames never reached still get cleaned of soot and checked for odor.
Once the fire department clears the house, the work has a set order. Burned materials come out first, then the soot gets cleaned off every surface worth saving while HEPA air scrubbers catch what floats loose. Water from the hoses gets extracted and dried with air movers and dehumidifiers, and smoke odor is handled by taking out what absorbed it and sealing what stays. After that we rebuild, because ONIT Solutions does both the cleanup and the construction.
We cover Clarendon Hills, coming in on Ogden Avenue, Route 83 or 55th Street. In a two-story house, smoke follows the stairwell up and leaves soot along the ceilings, the tops of the walls and inside the upstairs closets, even when the fire stayed on the first floor. So we read and clean the second floor as part of the job, not as an afterthought. If your Clarendon Hills home has a finished attic or a bonus room, that space gets checked too, because warm smoke collects at the highest point it can reach.
Burned drywall, insulation, carpet and trim are cut out and hauled off, room by room, until we reach clean framing.
Soot along stair walls, upper ceilings and closet shelves is cleaned with the rest of the house, not left for later.
HEPA scrubbers run while we tear out and clean, so loose soot is captured instead of drifting into the next room.
Porous materials that hold the smell are removed, and the surfaces that stay are sealed before new paint goes on.
We extract the water the hoses left, set drying equipment sized to each room and take moisture readings every day.
New drywall, insulation, flooring, trim and paint go in and are matched to the rooms around them.
The first visit is a walkthrough with you, and you get the daily equipment rates in writing before any scrubber or air mover is set. While the cleanup runs, we photograph and measure everything that comes out and write the rebuild scope in the format insurance carriers use. If the adjuster wants to meet at the house, we meet them there. Hidden damage behind a wall is priced in writing and approved by you first, and the job ends with a walkthrough of each room.
Day or night, call or text (815) 585-1750. If you can, send pictures of the stairwell and the upstairs rooms along with the room that burned.
