Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Romeoville

Around the clock, (815) 585-1750 takes your call or text after a Romeoville house fire. We clean the soot, dry what the hoses soaked and rebuild the rooms the fire took.

Romeoville fire damage cleanup and repair

When the fire department clears your Romeoville house, the next job is figuring out what can be saved. We separate what burned or warped from what only took soot, remove the first and clean the second. HEPA air scrubbers run during the cleanup, and the materials holding smoke odor come out while the framing that stays gets sealed. Water left by firefighting is extracted and dried, with readings taken every day, before the rebuild begins.

Romeoville is on our regular route, off I-55 and Route 53, with Weber Road and 135th Street running through town. If your Romeoville home has a finished basement, the water used upstairs can run down through the floor and soak the drywall, carpet and pad down there too. We check the lower level with a moisture meter even when the fire stayed on the main floor. That way the basement gets dried along with everything else instead of being found wet later.

What a Romeoville fire restoration includes

Sorting saved from lost

We decide room by room what gets cleaned and what gets replaced, and we show you why.

Demolition and haul-off

Burned drywall, insulation, flooring and trim are removed, and every load leaves the property.

Soot cleanup

Saved walls, ceilings and fixtures are cleaned of soot residue before any sealing or paint.

HEPA filtration

Air scrubbers with HEPA filters run during the work to catch fine soot in the air.

Lower level drying

Water that ran down from firefighting is extracted, and the lower level is dried and checked daily.

Full rebuild

Insulation, drywall, cabinets, flooring, trim and paint go back in to match the house.

What to expect on a Romeoville fire restoration

We start with photos of every room and a written, itemized estimate in the format insurance carriers use. Rates for air scrubbers, air movers and dehumidifiers are shown in writing before any of them are set up, and we check that equipment every day. You get the photos, readings and estimate, not just the carrier. Extra work found behind a wall is priced and approved by you before we do it, and a final walkthrough closes the job.

FAQ

Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Romeoville: questions

What should I do while I wait for you?
Stay out until the fire department says the house is safe. Do not wipe the soot, because it smears and stains. Take photos of every room and the things that were damaged, and call your carrier to start the claim.
Do fire repairs in Romeoville need a permit?
Rebuild work that replaces framing, wiring or plumbing usually does. We pull the Romeoville village permit and schedule the inspections. Cleanup and drying usually do not need one.
How long will drying take after the fire?
It depends on how much water was used and where it went. We take moisture readings every day and remove the equipment as soon as the readings show dry.
Do you take fire jobs near Romeoville?
Yes, we take them in Bolingbrook, Lockport, Lemont and Crest Hill too. Call or text (815) 585-1750.
Will my insurance pay for this?
That depends on your policy, and we cannot promise what a carrier approves. We write the estimate in the format carriers use, meet the adjuster at the house if they want, and send a supplement when their scope misses damage.
