"I don't recommend Environment Control. Their billing practices are questionable. Kyle wrote in his invoice that I made an "off hours" initial call. I called at 9am on a Monday. Not sure how that is considered "off hours." but ok. When my insurance questioned other inconsistent billing practices on their invoice, as they do have a right, the owner of the company charged $200 an hour to review their email, thereby increasing my total to over a thousand dollars more and added an administrative fee. Then they placed a lien on my home even though my insurance already sent the check. When I called the front desk to complain, the front desk receptionist said that's just how they deal with insurance to get paid. Customers beware. I had a very stressful situation and they made it much worse by having questionable billing practices. But apparently you're not allowed to question it. Or else they'll charge you extra and put a lien against your home."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Some of the most common chimney problems include:

  • Creosote buildup

  • Chimney blockage

  • Deteriorating brickwork or stonework

  • Cracked chimney top

  • Damaged flashing

  • Flue liner damage or deterioration

  • Damaged chimney cap

If you suspect you have a chimney problem, contact a masonry contractor for an inspection. 

In many cases, professionals can completely remove certain types of smoke damage from walls and ceilings, but it’s only possible if the damage is minor. For more extensive damage from major fires, you’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.

Homeowners insurance does not cover DIY mistakes, so tread lightly if you plan to tackle your own home repairs or renovations. If you cause damage to your home while attempting repairs or renovations yourself, the cost of fixing the damage is often considered your responsibility. Most policies only cover damage caused by covered perils like fire, theft, or weather—not by homeowner errors.

On average, you should expect the fire damage restoration process to take two weeks, but the timeline can vary widely depending on the extent of the damage and the type of fire damage you have. Minor cooking fires that you’re able to extinguish yourself may only take a day or two to clean soot and remove smoke odors, while restoring an entire section of a home or fixing structural damage after a major house fire can take six to 12 months. Ask your professional for a more accurate timeline for your specific project.

Smoke damage remediation time will depend on the extent of the damage, but most remediation takes between one day and one week. Homes that require significant material restoration will take longer than homes that only have minor smoke damage to clean. A smoke damage restoration pro can estimate how long it’ll take to get you safely back in your home.
