Why Homeowners Call Us for Fire Damage Cleanup
Clearing a burned room is not a job for a rented shop vac and a free afternoon. Wet ash is caustic, the drywall is heavy and full of nails, and every bag you carry out is a piece of evidence for your claim. Here is what you get when you dial our line.
Licensed & Insured Independent Pros
The contractors in our network are independent, licensed and insured local businesses, not guys with a pickup and a flyer. Ask for the license and a certificate of insurance before tear-out begins, and ask if they work to the IICRC S700 fire and smoke standard.
A Written Estimate Before Tear-Out
Nobody should start ripping out cabinets on a handshake. The contractor walks the loss, measures square feet of drywall and carpet, counts linear feet of base cabinet and estimates dumpster loads. Ask for a written, line-item estimate before any work starts, then forward it to your adjuster.
Rapid Local Dispatch
Someone picks up at any hour, and the dispatch process begins during that first call. We reach for crews working near Three Points first. Arrival depends on crew availability and distance, and it is often the same day.
The Right Gear for a Burned Room
Fire cleanup is filthy, hazardous work, and the gear shows it. Expect half-face or full-face respirators with P100 cartridges, Tyvek coveralls, nitrile gloves, HEPA vacuums, negative air machines, 6-mil poly sheeting with zipper doors, flat bars, and heavy contractor bags rated for nails and broken glass.
Wait until the fire department releases the house and the utility confirms the power is safe before anyone starts clearing. Wet ash is alkaline enough to irritate skin and eyes, so keep kids and pets out of the burned rooms.
Dedicated Fire Damage Cleanup Solutions
The job comes down to this: remove what is ruined, save what can be cleaned, and leave a room that no longer reeks of smoke. These are the jobs the independent crews in our network handle most.
Most of the cost on a cleanup job comes from labor and disposal, so a crew that sorts carefully saves you real money on the claim. Cabinet doors that only needed a wash should not be the first thing thrown on the pile. Ask the contractor to walk you through what stays and what goes before the first bag is filled.
Debris and Ash Removal
Crews shovel and bag the wet ash, collapsed ceiling, burned furniture and charred trim, then carry it out on a protected path.
- Roll-off dumpster sized to the job (10, 20 or 30 yard)
- Plywood under the dumpster to protect the driveway
- Floor runners from the burned room to the door
Selective Demolition
Charred and soaked drywall gets cut back to a clean line, typically at the nearest stud or seam. Wet insulation, carpet and pad, vinyl plank and burned base cabinets go out with it.
- Cut lines measured and photographed
- Electrical left untouched for the electrician
- Fasteners pulled so the framing is ready to inspect
Salvage Sorting and Photo Records
Every item is sorted into keep and toss piles and photographed before it leaves the house. Ask for wide shots of each room, close-ups with a tape measure for scale, and a written list your adjuster can match to the photos.
- Carpet and pad samples held until the adjuster signs off
- Brand and model labels photographed on appliances
- Disposal receipts kept for the file
Poly Walls, HEPA Vacuuming and Wipe-Down
Poly sheeting and a zipper door seal the burned rooms off, and a negative air machine keeps ash from drifting into the clean side of the house. Loose ash is HEPA vacuumed first, because wiping dry soot just smears it, then surfaces get a dry chemical sponge and a damp wipe, ceiling first and floor last.
Kitchen Grease Fire Cleanup
A grease fire leaves a sticky, brown film that smears if you touch it, plus a charred range hood and the upper cabinets right above the stove. Crews pull the burned uppers, haul out ruined appliances and spoiled food, and degrease what stays.
- Hood and duct checked for grease buildup
- Pantry and fridge contents photographed and bagged
Garage Fire Cleanup
Garage fires are their own animal: gas cans, paint, pool chlorine, pesticides, a burned vehicle and a wall of melted tools. Hazardous containers are pulled aside for proper disposal, and any vehicle stays put until the auto adjuster has seen it.
- Tools photographed for the contents claim
- Slab swept and HEPA vacuumed when cleared

What Three Points Callers Told Us Afterward
Our dispatchers check in after each job, and these are some of the replies.
A pan of oil flared, the hood caught, and the cabinets over the stove were charcoal before the extinguisher was empty. The contractor took out the burned uppers, bagged every can in the pantry and scrubbed the rest. They saved the lower cabinets, which made the adjuster happy.
A tenant's bedroom fire left me with a unit I could not even walk into. They photographed each item before it hit the dumpster, and the list they handed me went straight into the claim. Three days later it was bare studs and a clean slab.
The garage fire left melted tools, bulging paint cans and pool chemicals all over the floor. They kept the chemicals out of the dumpster and did not touch the car until our auto insurer had looked at it.
Hose water had soaked the carpet and pad, and the smell was in every room. They sealed the room off with plastic, ran an air machine and pulled the carpet and pad the same afternoon. The written estimate matched the final bill.
Fire Damage Cleanup Questions We Hear Every Week
Should I throw out burned things before the adjuster sees them?
No. Photograph everything first and keep it until the adjuster says it can go. If an item is rotting or dangerous, such as food or a soaked mattress, shoot photos with a tape for scale, write down the brand and model, then let it go. Keep a small cut sample of carpet and pad as proof of quality.
How big a dumpster does a fire cleanup usually need?
One bedroom typically fits in a 10 or 20 yard container, but a kitchen with cabinets, appliances and wet drywall usually calls for a 20 or 30 yard. Soaked drywall and plaster add weight fast, and most dumpsters carry a tonnage cap. Make sure the estimate spells out the container size and the number of hauls.
Why do crews cut the drywall higher than the burn marks?
The visible char is only part of the damage. Hose water wicks up drywall well above the waterline, and smoke works into the paper face and the cavity behind it. Crews check with a moisture meter and cut to a clean line at a stud or seam so the patch is easy to hang later.
Is it safe to stay in the house while the tear-out is happening?
That comes down to how widespread the damage is and whether the electrical and HVAC have been cleared. A single-room job with proper poly walls and negative air often lets a family keep using the rest of the house. Leave the system off until someone inspects the ducts, and talk it through with the crew lead.
What happens to paint cans and chemicals after a garage fire?
Those containers do not belong in the dumpster. Heat-damaged gas cans, paint, solvents, pool chlorine and pesticides can leak, react or flare, so crews separate them and send them to a household hazardous waste site or a licensed hauler. Ask the contractor to explain their disposal plan up front.
Will my insurance pay for debris removal and tear-out?
Most homeowner policies include debris removal as part of the dwelling coverage, but limits and terms vary, so read your policy or ask your agent. What helps the most is clean documentation: photos, an item list, measurements and a line-item estimate the adjuster can follow. You stay in charge of the claim and the contract with the crew.
