Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration FAQ — Florence
Can smoke smell really be removed?
Yes, when done properly. We clean soot from every surface, use thermal fogging or ozone/hydroxyl treatment to neutralize odor at the source, and seal or replace materials that can't be cleaned.
How soon should fire damage cleanup start?
Within days. Soot is acidic and keeps etching metal, glass and finishes the longer it sits, and wet materials from firefighting start growing mold quickly.
Is mold or water damage covered by homeowners insurance?
Often, yes — sudden events like burst pipes, appliance failures and storm damage are usually covered, while long-term neglect or flooding from outside water may not be. We document everything with photos and moisture readings and work directly with your adjuster.
Do I need mold testing before removal?
Not always. If mold is visible and the cause is obvious, we can go straight to removal. Testing is useful when you smell mold but can't see it, when someone in the home has health symptoms, or when you need clearance documentation for a sale or landlord.
