Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Hoffman Estates, IL

Fire damage inside and out in Hoffman Estates

When the fire is out and the house is cleared, we remove what burned, clean the soot that settled on everything else and run HEPA air scrubbers through the cleanup. The water used to put out the fire is extracted and dried with readings every day. Odor is handled by taking out porous materials that soaked it up and sealing the framing that stays. Then we rebuild what was lost, outside walls included.

We cover Hoffman Estates on the Cook and Kane county side, off I-90 and Route 59, with Higgins Road, Golf Road and Barrington Road taking us through town. If a grill, deck or garage fire caught the outside of your house, the siding and soffit may be melted or burned, and smoke can get pulled through the soffit vents into the attic. We replace the damaged siding, trim and soffit, then check the attic insulation and sheathing for smoke. Roofing is not part of our work, so if the fire reached the shingles, we tell you that up front.

Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration by ONIT Solutions

Exterior and interior fire repair in Hoffman Estates

Siding and soffit replacement

Melted or burned siding, soffit and fascia get replaced with material matched to the rest of the house.

Exterior trim repair

We replace and paint the burned trim around windows, doors and corners.

Attic smoke check

We check the attic insulation and sheathing for smoke pulled in through the vents.

Deck rebuild

A deck the fire damaged gets rebuilt with stairs and railings to code, permitted where required.

Interior soot and odor

Soot comes off inside, porous materials come out, and the framing gets an odor-blocking primer.

Drying with daily readings

The hose water is extracted and dried, and we log readings until it is done.

How a Hoffman Estates fire repair runs

We walk the outside and inside of the house, take photos of each wall and room and write a line-by-line estimate in the format insurance carriers use. Before any drying equipment is set, the daily rates are in writing. If the adjuster's scope misses a wall of siding or the attic, we send a supplement and show them why. Extra work is priced and approved by you in writing first, and the job ends with a walkthrough inside and out.

FAQ

Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Hoffman Estates: questions

What should I do before you get there?

Wait for the fire department to clear the house before you go in. Do not wipe soot off anything, inside or out, because it smears. Photograph each side of the house, the deck and every room, then call your carrier to open the claim. Text the photos to (815) 585-1750.

Can you match my siding?

We match the profile and color as closely as the material allows. If an exact match is no longer made, we explain the options before anything goes up.

Do I need a permit in Hoffman Estates?

A deck rebuild, new framing, electrical and plumbing work usually need one. We pull what Hoffman Estates requires and schedule the inspections.

How long does an inside and outside fire repair take?

Inside drying and cleanup run until the readings and surfaces say they are done. Siding and deck work depend on weather and materials, and we give you the dates in writing once the scope is approved.

Which towns near Hoffman Estates do you cover?

We also take fire and smoke calls in Schaumburg, Palatine, Hanover Park and Rolling Meadows.
