Fire & Smoke
Fire and smoke damage restoration in Las Vegas
After a fire there are three problems at once: the burn, the smoke and soot that travel through the house, and the water used to put it out. We secure the property, clean and deodorize what can be saved, dry what got wet, and rebuild the rest.

Fire Damage RestorationFire damage restoration is the full process of securing a property after a fire, then cleaning soot and smoke, removing odor, and rebuilding whatever the fire, heat or firefighting water damaged. You need it as soon as the fire department releases the property back to you, because soot is acidic and keeps damaging surfaces the longer it sits, and an open or damaged structure needs to be secured the same day.See the service →
Smoke & Soot CleanupSmoke damage cleanup removes soot, smoke residue and odor from walls, ceilings, HVAC systems and belongings after a fire, even a small one that never spread beyond a stove or a single room. Smoke and soot travel through a house's air far beyond where the fire itself burned, so a full cleanup usually reaches rooms that never saw flame.See the service →
Odor RemovalOdor removal treats the actual source of a lingering smell, smoke, sewage or mildew, rather than covering it with a spray or air freshener, using equipment and techniques that reach into materials, HVAC systems and wall cavities where the odor is trapped. It is usually needed after a fire, a sewage backup, or a water leak that was not addressed quickly enough to prevent mildew.See the service →
Board-Up & TarpingBoard-up and tarping is the same-day work of securing a home or business after a fire, storm, break-in, or roof failure - covering broken windows and doors with plywood and covering damaged roof sections with tarps - so the property is protected from weather, theft, and further damage while repairs are arranged. It is often the very first call after an incident in Las Vegas, whether that is a monsoon storm that tore off roofing or a fire that left a wall open to the outside.See the service →Questions
Straight answers
What should I do in the first hour after a fire is out?
Wait for the fire department to confirm it is safe to re-enter, then contact your insurance company to open a claim. Avoid touching soot or running the HVAC system, and call for board-up if there are broken windows, doors or an opened roof.
The fire was only in one room, why does the whole house smell like smoke?
Central air conditioning and open floor plans common in Las Vegas homes circulate smoke through the ductwork and living space well beyond the room where the fire happened. That is why an inspection covers the whole house, not just the fire scene.
Why does the smoke smell keep coming back after I clean?
Surface cleaning removes visible soot but smoke odor molecules can soak into porous materials like drywall, carpet padding and fabric, and into HVAC ductwork. Until those source materials are treated or the ductwork is addressed, the smell tends to return, especially when the AC or heat runs.
How fast can you board up my property?
We treat board-up and tarping as an emergency service and typically secure the property the same day, whether that is after hours or on a weekend. We never promise an exact arrival time, but we prioritize these calls.
