When your property has fire damage, the clean up requirements can be extensive, often needing cleaning services beyond the norm to return you to the original condition of your space. You’ll typically need fire damage restoration experts who understand the complexity of a fire damage, and who can guarantee odor removal forever. Based in Cincinnati – our team is ready to help restore your property.
Your fire damage is unique. Just like every catastrophe is. Residential and commercial properties are all built differently, and soot will travel through your building differently depending on window openings, vents, where the fire was started, what kinds of products caught fire, and much more. Because of that, you may find smoke damage in places you don’t expect, and the scope of work may vary from original expectations.
And you’ll find that the water that brought safety from the fire, may bring water damage, and it’s own cleanup needs. If not handled soon, this water damage will usually lead to mold growth that needs separate mold remediation – and suddenly the work to restore your property can become very complicated.
The fire department or insurance carrier may determine that your property is unsafe for entry, or will be under investigation for a moment. In these events, it’s often still possible to begin stabilization of your space, to help limit mold growth, and start protecting your belongings.
We recommend this step be taken as quickly as possible, after our initial assessment, because high moisture content in the structure of the building leads to secondary and even structural damage, or impossible upholstery cleaning. Quickly addressing these constraints with temporary power supply, and non-intrusive dehumidification (during the inspection and third-party investigation phase) minimizes the extent of further repair needs and mold.
Of course, considerations change in summer and winter months, from mitigating the risk of mold during summer months, to risk of burst pipes and more during winter months. Fire damage restoration experts in Cincinnati OH can educate you through the process, and protect your belongings after fires.
Your grandmother’s wedding dress. The wall hanging you bought in Thailand. And the teddy your children sleep with. Any of these belongings could be more valuable to you than the business you run, or be worth more than the whole job scope of this fire.
We’ve seen it all. And it’s important for you to know that customers can profile personal items for salvage, even when they may not look valuable to others. Skilled technicians will make an assessment of everything affected by smoke and fire (and mold) to determine what is worth restoration.
For example, a $400 dress may have soot all over it in the closet, but not have been touched by fire or flame. It’s not easy to find a dress to replace it with (the time and energy of full closet replacement tends to be immense for homeowners who have to do this). But an IICRC certified restoration business who specializes in fire damage contents cleaning, may only need $40 to return that garment to it’s original condition. And they may restore the broken button while they’re at it.
These services (for a customers personal items) can be expedited for primary belongings, and urgent items. A customer recently was appearing on the news, and needed a particular blouse. Another was catering a wedding and needed their uniform.
Great care is given to make sure that every piece of salvageable clothing, and your sofa, and your art work is documented in it’s current condition before removal from the fire damage property. Our fire damage clean up team uses advanced equipment and will return back to you without odor.
Your space has likely never smelled like this. The complex chemicals that are left in your property require more than usual cleaning services can offer. In fact, soot removal in your affected areas may require more advanced equipment than most fire damage restoration companies even own, like dry ice blasting equipment, to physically remove soot and smoke damage, rather than just mask the smoke with chemicals and Kilz.
To be able to offer homeowners like you an odor free guarantee on residential and commercial properties in the Cincinnati metro area, we first create free estimates of emergency service that we believe will remove odors in full. It’s very-very unusual that this scope would include anything to do with paint, Kilz, or other chemicals. Our fire damage cleanup scope needs to be accepted in full, and performed in full by our Yeti Restoration technicians, and we’ll stand behind it for you, knowing that once the smoke and fire is removed, there’s no more odor to be worried about. The work is complete.
You may have structural damage or water damage to deal with now, but the initial impact of the fire smoke will be gone, and your insurance company (on a covered loss) will be able to recognize and compensate you as property owners for these specialty cleaning services. After all, your insurance company is contractually obligated to pay for the restoration services necessary to return your property to the condition it was in before whatever destruction caused this event.
Assuming you have insurance, and your claim is a covered loss (most fire losses are – and we can help figure that out), the restoration services you require will be covered in full by your insurance carrier.
The damage restoration services that are required, will often be more than you perhaps can see on day one, and that’s to be expected. Your insurance company don’t expect you to understand the full scope at once. In fact, the remediation of the smoke damage may only be fully understood as restoration services are begun.
At times, your insurance adjuster may request a scope of anticipated restoration services, but should understand that residential and commercial properties are each unique, and each fire is unique. Wall cavities can pressurize during a fire, and smoke will fill the stud cavities, even where insulation is found. This insulation will never effectively be in it’s original condition, and would need to be replaced.
You should expect a service that will protect you from cut corners, and ensures restoration services are complete in full.

We get to do this a lot, and we’ll bring our expertise to secure the best outcomes for you and your family as we engage with you and the adjuster that your insurance carrier uses.
Fire damage restoration companies encounter mold removal on almost every job. Truthfully, this doesn’t have to be the case.
There is no ideal scenario in fire damage cleanup. You’re always considering multiple stakeholders (at least homeowners, fire department and insurance). Sometimes delays caused by conflict of interests, or a lack of trust in the process or the insurance adjuster cause the timeline of damage restoration to be delayed. These delays (for good or bad reasons) can lead to fire damage restoration being a mold removal problem at the same time.
You’ll have to repair damage at some point, but water damage restoration may come first – and can often be facilitated without demolition to areas of the property that are under investigation or observation for structural damage.
Mold will grow wherever it has something to eat, something to drink, and somewhere to hide. Here in Cincinnati, we have great weather for growing mold in unconditioned property after water damage, so you may have areas that the fire department were able to spray water, now being removed.
Depending on the scale of damage, it’s possible that appropriate restoration would have necessitated the removal of these porous substrates whether there was water damage or not. But either way, the cleanup will tend to be less intrusive of your property and belongings when you act quickly to avoid mold, and bring in a business who can serve you with restoration and water removal within a short number of days, not weeks.
