  2. Persistent smoke odor that does not air out
  3. Discoloration or yellowing on painted surfaces
  4. Warped or buckled flooring from suppression water

Fire Damage Restoration, Step by Step

Emergency Response

Call (612) 834-1501. We respond 24/7 to secure your property with board-up, tarping, and fencing to prevent further damage and unauthorized entry.

Assessment and Scope

Our team inspects structural integrity, smoke and soot penetration, water damage from suppression, and air quality. We classify damage zones and build a detailed scope of work with photo documentation.

Smoke, Soot, and Water Removal

We remove soot from all surfaces, extract standing water from fire suppression, deodorize with thermal fogging and ozone treatment, and clean or remove damaged materials. HVAC systems are cleaned to prevent recirculating smoke particles.

Rebuild and Restore

Our general contracting crew handles structural framing, drywall, flooring, trim, paint, electrical, and plumbing. We rebuild your home to pre-loss condition with the same team that handled mitigation. One point of contact, one timeline, one company.

SCOPE OF SERVICE

What Fire Damage Restoration Actually Covers

Fire damage restoration is more than cleanup. It addresses every layer of damage left behind by fire, smoke, soot, and the water used to extinguish the flames.

Emergency board-up and securing. Broken windows, compromised doors, and damaged roofing are secured immediately to protect your property from weather, animals, and unauthorized entry.

Smoke and soot removal. Soot is acidic. Left untreated, it permanently etches glass, corrodes metal, and stains porous surfaces like drywall, wood, and fabric. We clean all affected surfaces using dry sponge techniques, HEPA vacuuming, and chemical cleaning based on the soot type (wet, dry, protein, or fuel-oil)

:

Odor elimination. Smoke odor penetrates deep into materials. Surface cleaning alone will not remove it. We use thermal fogging, ozone generators, and hydroxyl treatment to neutralize odor at the molecular level.

Water damage from fire suppression. Fire hoses and sprinkler systems dump thousands of gallons into a structure. This water must be extracted and the structure dried using the same industrial equipment and protocols we use for standalone water damage restoration.

Content pack-out and restoration. We inventory, pack, transport, and restore salvageable personal belongings off-site. Items that cannot be saved are documented for your insurance claim.

Structural reconstruction. As a licensed general contractor, we handle all repairs. Framing, drywall, flooring, roofing, siding, electrical, plumbing, painting, and final finishes. Your home is rebuilt to code and to pre-loss condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does fire damage restoration take? +

It depends on the scope. A kitchen fire with smoke damage to adjacent rooms may take two to four weeks. A structural fire requiring full demolition and rebuild can take several months. We provide a detailed timeline during the initial assessment and keep you updated with real-time progress reports throughout the project.

Does insurance cover fire damage restoration? +

Most homeowner's insurance policies cover fire damage, including structural repairs, smoke and soot removal, water damage from suppression, and temporary living expenses (loss of use). We handle all documentation, photograph every phase, and submit directly to your adjuster. You do not need to coordinate between contractors and your insurance company.

Is it safe to enter my home after a fire? +

Do not re-enter until the fire department clears the structure. Even after clearance, smoke residue and compromised structural elements can pose health and safety risks. Our team assesses structural integrity, air quality, and electrical safety before any work begins. If the property is not safe to occupy, we help coordinate temporary housing through your insurance.

Can smoke damage be removed from furniture and personal items? +

Many items can be restored. We use ultrasonic cleaning, ozone treatment, and specialized dry cleaning for textiles. Electronics, documents, and photographs are evaluated individually. Items that cannot be saved are documented and inventoried for your insurance claim.

Do I need to hire separate contractors for cleanup and rebuilding? +

No. Bedrock is a Minnesota Licensed General Contractor (#BC787322). We handle every phase: emergency securing, smoke and soot removal, water extraction, demolition, structural repair, and full reconstruction. One team, one point of contact from emergency call to move-in day.

What should I do immediately after a fire? +

Contact your insurance company to open a claim. Then call (612) 834-1501. We will secure the property, begin damage assessment, and start mitigation to prevent secondary damage from smoke, soot, and standing water. Do not attempt to clean soot yourself. Improper cleaning can spread residue and make staining permanent.
