Call or text (815) 585-1750, 24/7, once the fire department has cleared your Homer Glen house. We clean out the fire and smoke damage, dry the water from the hoses, and rebuild the rooms that were lost.
Fire restoration starts after the fire department hands the house back to you. Our crew takes out what burned or cannot be cleaned, from charred drywall and insulation to soaked carpet, and cleans the soot off the surfaces that can be saved. HEPA air scrubbers run the whole time we work, and the smell gets handled at its source: the materials holding it come out, and smoke-stained framing gets sealed before anything new goes over it. Then ONIT Solutions rebuilds the rooms, from framing and drywall to trim and paint.
We cover Homer Glen off I-355, and we work along 143rd Street, 159th Street, Bell Road and Route 7. If your home sits on a large lot with an attached garage, a garage fire can push smoke through the shared wall and into the attic over the living space. We check those areas even when the flames never reached them. Some Homer Glen addresses are in the village and some are in unincorporated Will County, and we sort out which office issues the rebuild permit for yours.
Burned drywall, insulation, trim and flooring come out and get hauled away, so the rebuild starts on framing that is solid.
Walls, ceilings, cabinets and hard surfaces that held up get cleaned of soot instead of replaced.
Air scrubbers with HEPA filters run during the tear-out and cleaning to pull fine soot out of the air.
We remove the materials that hold the smoke smell and seal the stained framing, rather than covering the smell up.
Water from the hoses gets extracted, then air movers and dehumidifiers dry the floors and wall cavities while we log moisture readings every day.
Framing, drywall, insulation, flooring, cabinets, trim and paint go back in from one written scope.
We walk the house with you, photograph every room, and write the estimate line by line in the pricing format insurance carriers use. If drying equipment is needed, you see the daily rates in writing before anything is set up. Anything we find behind a wall that changes the scope gets written up and approved by you before we do it. When the rebuild is done, we walk each room with you and go over the punch list.
Call or text (815) 585-1750, 24/7, and if you can, text photos of the garage, the attic and any room that took smoke.
