Q: What are common challenges faced during fire or smoke damage restoration?

• <div><p>Challenges include ensuring structural safety, completing soot removal, meeting restoration codes, and effectively managing insurance claims.</p></div>

Q: Does insurance cover acts of nature?

• <div><p>Yes, most insurance plans cover acts of nature. In policy documents, this also may be called &ldquo;Acts of God&rdquo; or &ldquo;natural disasters.&rdquo; However, not all acts of nature are covered by your policy, and the extent to which they&rsquo;re covered depends on your specific contract. Check your policy documents to understand your coverage limits and exclusions.</p></div>

Q: Can smoke damage be completely removed?

• <div><p>In many cases, professionals can completely remove certain <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/smoke-damage-types.htm">types of smoke damage</a> from walls and ceilings, but it&rsquo;s only possible if the damage is minor. For more extensive damage from major fires, you&rsquo;ll likely need to replace the damaged materials entirely. Some items, like upholstered furniture, are much trickier to clean and might need to be replaced even if the smoke damage is minimal.</p></div>

Q: Will smoke smell go away on its own?

• <div><p>Smoke smell can linger for months or even years and will not go away on its own once it&rsquo;s penetrated into your walls, floors, ceilings, and furniture. The particles that give smoke its distinctive smell can permeate every corner of your home and can take a very long time to dissipate. Your best bet to combat smoke smell is a combination of thorough cleaning, air purifying, and replacing heavily damaged materials. </p></div>

Q: Does homeowners insurance cover smoke damage?

• <div><p>Yes, most homeowner&rsquo;s insurance companies cover smoke damage if it stems from a covered issue, like a house fire or a wildfire. If you&rsquo;re unsure, you can read through your policy or call your provider immediately after the event to see if the damage is covered. Make sure to document all of the damage, including damage to furniture and other items, when you file an insurance claim so you can be properly compensated.</p></div>
