Fire Damage Cleanup – Some Steps

A fire causes physical, financial, and emotional challenges. In most cases, the effects are difficult for those on the outside to understand. In addition, the fire damage cleanup is important to do immediately. To help in this process, you need a restoration company on how to address your needs quickly and efficiently.

When a fire disaster occurs, ensure the safety of your family or employees first. Once everyone is safe, call a restoration crew immediately. The longer your property is exposed to smoke, soot, and ash, the more extensive (and expensive) the property damage.

Did You Know?

IBX Services is the water and fire damage restoration company leader in Toronto and all GTA areas. We offer 24/7 emergency services and work quickly to restore your property to pre-loss condition.

Here are the steps you should expect from a professional fire damage cleanup and restoration company:

Inspection of the Building

Professionals like us inspect and test areas of your building affected by the fire and analyze the extent of the damage. Some areas are easier to spot than others. This first step determines an action plan for the restoration process and the fire damage cleanup.

Emergency Board-up

Temporary board-up and tarping repairs secure your property from further liability after a disaster. Without professional board up, animals, rain, and thieves can invade your property and cause more damage. Technicians cover roofs, windows, doors, and walls to secure and protect your home and business.

Water and Fire Damage Cleanup (if necessary)

Many people do not expect water damage to affect their homes or business after a fire. But pipe bursts and rainstorms cause the majority of damage after a fire. Our professionals will extract all water from the premises and dry the affected areas. This process will protect the building from long-term structural damage and mold too.

Smoke and Soot Removal

Companies like IBX Services use innovative equipment and techniques to remove smoke and soot from ceilings, walls, and other surfaces. Be sure to hire a company that uses Ozone treatment to remove odors from your home or business. This treatment uses powerful oxidizers and organic chemicals to break down molecules and remove the odor and smoke permanently.

Property Restoration After the Fire Damage Cleanup

Restoration includes minor repairs such as painting, replacing the carpet, and plumbing. For major repairs, our restoration crews offer structural reconstruction or electrical wiring installation.

IBX Services doesn’t just clean and repair the structural damage—we also restore your contents. Don’t lose time and call us at +1-416-252-5959!
