Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Lisle, IL

Fire damage restoration in Lisle

Fire restoration is cleanup and rebuild under one company. On the cleanup side, we remove burned and soaked materials, clean soot off surfaces that can be saved, run HEPA air scrubbers, and dry out the water from the fire hoses. On the odor side, we remove what holds the smell and seal the stained framing that stays. Then we rebuild the rooms.

We reach Lisle on I-88 and Route 53, past the Morton Arboretum, and Ogden Avenue and Maple Avenue take us through the DuPage County village. If the fire started inside a wall, from wiring or an outlet, the char can run up the stud bay well past what you see on the surface. We open the wall until we reach clean, sound framing, and we photograph each opening so your carrier sees what we found.

Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration by ONIT Solutions

What a Lisle fire job includes

Opening walls to sound framing

We open fire-damaged walls and ceilings until we reach framing that is clean and solid.

Soot cleaning

Soot is cleaned off ceilings, walls, trim and cabinets that are worth keeping.

HEPA air scrubbers

We run HEPA scrubbers during tear-out and cleaning to clear soot from the air.

Removing and sealing for odor

The materials that hold the smoke smell come out, and stained framing is sealed before new drywall goes up.

Drying out the hose water

Extraction, air movers, dehumidifiers and daily moisture readings continue until the house reads dry.

Rebuild and finish

Framing, insulation, drywall, flooring, cabinets, trim and paint get finished to match the rest of the house.

How we work a Lisle fire job

Each opening we make gets photographed, and you get copies of those photos along with the moisture readings. The estimate is itemized in the format carriers use, and we meet your adjuster at the house if they want. Equipment rates are in writing before setup, and we check the machines every day. Any change to the scope gets your written approval before the work is done.

FAQ

Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Lisle: questions

What should I do before you get there?

Do not go in until the fire department says the house is clear. Leave the soot alone, because wiping smears it and makes cleaning harder. Photograph every room and anything damaged, then call your carrier to report it.

Do you take fire damage calls near Lisle?

Yes. Naperville, Downers Grove, Woodridge and Warrenville are on our route.

Is a permit needed to rebuild in Lisle?

Usually, when the rebuild includes framing, wiring or plumbing, and a fire that started in a wall almost always involves wiring. We pull the permit where the village requires it and schedule the inspections.

When can you come out?

We answer (815) 585-1750 around the clock by call or text and dispatch as soon as we can. The drying and rebuild dates go in writing with the estimate.

Why do you open more wall than looks burned?

Char and smoke travel up the inside of a wall past what shows on the paint. We open until we reach clean framing so the rebuild does not close damage back in, and we photograph each opening.
