Why Oak Ridge, TN homeowners choose us after a fire
Same-day response
A fire leaves the house open, and every night it stays open adds to the damage. Someone answers our phone day or night, holidays included. Our crews drive out from the Tri-Cities, so we set a same-day arrival time with you on the call.
A free inspection, no commitment
We walk the house with you, show you what can be saved and what has to go, and put it in writing. The inspection is free, and you decide whether we do the work.
We accept all insurance
We work directly with your insurance company and handle the back and forth with your adjuster. If smoke reached a neighboring unit, we document each unit separately.
We document everything for your claim
We photograph every room, including the ones with only light smoke, and scan each one in 360, so your claim covers all of the damage.
Financing if you need it
Even a covered claim leaves a deductible, and some losses are not covered at all. Financing is available for either one, so you can spread the cost over time.
How our fire damage restoration runs in Oak Ridge, TN
Step 1. You call our office
Call our 24/7 line once the fire department releases the building. We set a same-day arrival time with you on the call, and a crew heads out from the Tri-Cities. Until we arrive, do not wipe sooty walls or run the heat or air conditioning.
Step 2. We secure the building
We board up broken windows and forced doors and tarp any open roof, so the weather stops adding to the damage.
Step 3. We find where the smoke and water went
Smoke travels further than the fire, and the hoses leave water in the walls and floors. We check every room, including the ones that look clean, and photograph each one. Houses on the outer streets back onto the wooded Oak Ridge Reservation, so we check for smoke that came in from outside as well as from inside.
Step 4. We clean, dry and remove the smell
We take out the water, dry the structure, clean the soot and ash from the ceiling down, and treat the smoke smell at its source instead of covering it up.
Step 5. We handle the insurance paperwork
We write the estimate in Xactimate, the same software insurance companies use, and send your insurance company the photos, readings and scope it needs. If anything is not covered, financing is available.

Oak Ridge, TN fire cleanup questions we get
The ones we get on almost every job.
How quickly can you be in Oak Ridge after a fire?
Same day. We book the window with you before the call ends, and a person answers overnight and on holidays. Tell us the street, and whether the fire department has handed the building back yet.
A brush fire came up to my Oak Ridge house but nothing inside burned. Is that a claim?
It usually is. Smoke gets in through vents, eaves and any opening, and it settles on everything inside whether or not a flame crossed the wall. We run an inspection, record what it reached, and write the scope for that alone. Smoke damage without fire damage is still a loss.
How does the claims process work if the fire started outside my Oak Ridge home?
The cause decides which part of your policy answers, so the first question your carrier asks is where it started. We record the origin the fire department gave, what the fire reached, what the smoke reached and what the hoses wet, and the insurance claim runs off that one file rather than three.
My Oak Ridge house is an older one. Does that change the fire cleanup?
It changes how carefully we look. In an older house the soot works into woodwork, into joints and into cavities a newer build does not have, so the inspection runs longer and the list of what we scope is longer with it. We agree that list with you before anything comes out.
Does an Oak Ridge estimate cost me anything?
No. The visit is free, the written scope is free, and it is yours to keep whether you use us or not. Our price is our price, so the figure does not move because a carrier is paying. Some people take it away and think about it for a week, which is fine.
