What to Do After a Fire
- Stay out until firefighters say the building is safe to enter.
- Don’t turn on the HVAC system or electrical systems in damaged areas, which can spread soot or start another fire.
- Don’t wipe soot from walls, furniture or fabrics.
- Throw away food, medicine and cosmetics exposed to heat or smoke.
- Photograph the damage, call your insurance company and then call us.
Our Fire Damage Restoration Process in Cupertino
- Secure the property: We board up windows and doors and tarp damaged roofs to protect the home from weather and intruders.

- Remove water: Water from firefighting is extracted and the structure is dried to prevent mold.

- Rebuild: Our construction team repairs or rebuilds what the fire destroyed.
Wildfire Smoke Damage
A home doesn’t have to burn to be damaged by fire. Wildfire smoke and ash can settle in attics, HVAC systems, carpets, curtains and furniture, leaving a smell that lingers for weeks and fine soot that stains surfaces. We clean and deodorize the structure, clean ducts and replace filters, and clean or restore affected belongings.
Water Damage After a Fire
The water used to put out a fire soaks drywall, insulation and flooring, and it needs to be dried just as quickly as any other leak. Our water damage restoration team in Cupertino extracts the water and dries the structure so mold doesn’t follow.
Help With Your Insurance Claim
We document fire, smoke and water damage with photos, inventories of your belongings and detailed scopes of work, giving your adjuster what they need to process the claim.
