Commercial Fire & Smoke Damage Scenarios
Fires in retail, office, and industrial spaces create both smoke and water damage. Rapid pack-out, soot cleaning, and phased reopenings protect revenue and limit downtime.
Retail Store Fire Damages Inventory and Fixtures
An electrical fault in display lighting ignited packaging materials, producing heavy smoke and sooty residues across sales floors and back-of-house storage. Inventory and point-of-sale equipment required immediate protection and cleaning.
Our Solutions:

- Content pack-out and off-site cleaning for salvageable inventory
- HEPA cleaning and thermal fogging for odor control
- Detailed loss inventory and coordination with insurance for claims
Electrical Fire in Office Space Affects Server Closets
A localized electrical fire in a tenant's office created heavy smoke that migrated into a server closet and under raised floors. Protecting data and minimizing downtime was critical for business continuity.
Our Solutions:

- Raised-floor drying and targeted desiccant dehumidification
- Specialized electronics cleaning and documentation for insurers
- Phased reopening plan to restore critical operations quickly
Firefighting Water Compounds Smoke Damage in Commercial Property

Our Solutions:
- Immediate water extraction and containment of fire-damaged zones
- Separate drying and soot-cleaning tracks to avoid cross-contamination
- Document combined damage for insurance and reconstruction planning

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know
How do you protect business-critical equipment during commercial fire cleanup?
We prioritize electronics and server rooms on arrival: coordinate with IT for safe power isolation, stage equipment in climate-controlled areas, and use raised-floor drying systems and desiccant dehumidifiers to protect infrastructure while work progresses. We document pre-existing conditions for insurance and work with data-recovery partners when needed.
Can my business reopen while fire and smoke restoration is underway?
Often we use phased restoration to allow partial re-opening. We isolate affected zones with containment, run HEPA air scrubbing, and focus on critical operational areas first. Your project manager will provide a phased reopening plan that balances safety, insurance requirements, and minimizing revenue loss.
What does content pack-out and cleaning include for commercial properties?
Content pack-out inventories, tags, and transports salvageable items to our cleaning facility where ultrasonic and dry-foam processes remove soot and odors. Non-salvageable inventory is documented for claims. Pack-out protects stock, records, and specialized equipment from secondary water damage during structural drying.
How does insurance coordination work for commercial fire claims?
We provide detailed documentation including photos, moisture readings, and inventory lists to support commercial claims. Our team coordinates directly with adjusters, provides scope estimates for multiple tenant spaces if needed, and issues daily progress reports to speed approvals and reduce business interruption exposure.
