Thomson, GA Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration

Fires can be overwhelming for Thomson homeowners, especially when the fire spreads throughout the entire property. As devastating as losses like this can be, there are still many steps that professional restoration technicians like our SERVPRO team can take to get your house back to preloss condition without complete demolition and reconstruction. When you consider some of the historic properties in the area like Hickory Hill, the objective to protect as much of the original construction is even more necessary. With a fast response to emergencies from technicians available 24/7, we can implement mitigative tasks beginning as soon as our team arrives. 

Emergency Services for Thomson Homes 

Repairs and reconstruction are often unavoidable entirely with fire losses. Being a general contractor licensed through the state of Georgia can help to provide McDuffie County homes with several emergency services that can significantly limit the spread and severity of other hazardous and damaging conditions. Emergency services often precede standard mitigation practices and even the job scoping phase. This preliminary stage typically includes: 

  • Debris removal
  • Controlled demolition 
  • Roof repair and board-up
  • Temporary fencing 
  • Air quality improvement 

Deodorizing Thompson Homes After a Fire Loss  

Removing harsh odors is a great restoration challenge. While many intense scents exist in the open environments and spread through the HVAC system, porous materials also allow for smoke to become trapped. Thermal fogging and ozone machines both can address trapped and free noxious odors for neutralization.

Our Fire Restoration Process

Every fire damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.

Step 1: Emergency Contact

We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week. When you call, one of our representatives will ask a series of questions about the fire damage to your home or business. This information helps us respond immediately with all the needed equipment and resources.

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

We determine the scope of the fire and smoke damage by examining the affected areas and by testing the adjoining rooms for smoke and soot damage. An accurate assessment is crucial to the planning process. 

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service (if needed)

In many fire damage cases, it’s necessary to board up missing windows and walls and to place tarps on a damaged roof. This helps to maintain security and to protect against further damage. 

Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)

The water removal process begins almost immediately and removes the majority of the water. We then use dehumidifiers and air movers to remove the remaining water and complete the drying process. 

Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces

We use specialized equipment and techniques to remove smoke and soot from ceilings, walls, and other surfaces. 

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

We clean and sanitize the restorable items and structures damaged by the fire. Our professionals use a variety of cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. We’re also trained to remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

Step 7: Restoration

Restoration is the process or restoring your home or business to its pre-fire condition. Restoration may involve relatively minor repairs, such as replacing drywall and painting, or it could include significant reconstruction of entire rooms.
