Fire Damage

We have seen the devastation that a natural or man-made disaster can cause. The emotional stress can be overwhelming. At Steamatic, we take all the emotions into consideration on every job. Our goal is to get people back in their homes as quickly as possible and restore possessions to original quality. Steamatic will even rush emergency items such as clothing, childrens’ toys and other important items to ease the disruption to life.

Steps to Fire and Smoke Damage Recovery

1. Inspection and Assessment

Following the call from you or your insurance agent / adjuster, Steamatic will visually inspect the damage to the structure and its contents. Fire, smoke and water damage is usually not totally destructive and many items can restored to their pre-loss condition. Your Steamatic representative will provide you with a Scope of Work and a cost estimate for recovery. Upon acceptance, the restoration process can begin quickly.

2. Contents

Emergency preservation procedures for items that quickly deteriorate such as electronics and papers are promptly implemented. Steamatic restoration technicians will then evaluate items to determine if they can be cost-effectively restored.

3. Pack Out of contents

Contents will be inventoried, documented, and made ready for pack-out. Items are transported to the Steamatic restoration facility for cleaning, restoration, and/or storage until structure restoration is complete.

4. Structure

Structure restoration will involve debris removal, deodorization and dehumidification. Cleaning of walls, ceilings, floors, fixtures, air ducts, and hard/soft surfaces is performed from the top down to control fallout. Steamatic produces its own line of proven, proprietary chemicals and cleaning equipment to safely and effectively clean and restore.

5. Final Inspection

Upon completion of restoration, you and your Steamatic representative will perform a final inspection to determine that all concerns have been addressed. Restored contents are returned to your home or office. You and/or your insurance provider will then receive a Work Complete statement.
