"Working with baney construction was an absolute nightmare. I had my house get hit with hail and called them to get a quote. From day one they new insurance was only covering the roof and 2 sides of my house. The roof went fine other than one corner of my house. They put new drip edge up and the drip edge is 2 inches away from the facia. So I took pictures and sent them to baney and there response was “that’s how the old drip edge was so that’s how we did it” the roof cost 15k and they couldn't even do it the right way. Then we agreed to have them do the siding on 2 sides of my house and after they had my money for 10 months I get a call saying they can no longer do it because insurance is only cover 2 sides. They new from day 1 that insurance was only covering 2 sides so I wasted 10 moths thinking they were going to do it also they $5,000 of my money to order material that they never even ordered for 10 months. If I can help anyone on here STAY AWAY FROM BANEY CONSTRUCTION!!!!"

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Even if they look fine, carpets should be replaced after smoke damage since they can absorb smoke, soot, and water all the way into the carpet padding. Fully removing smoke, fire, and water damage from carpeting can be a complicated and time-consuming process, so replacing the carpet is a safer bet.

Homeowner’s insurance will usually cover fire damage restoration unless you or someone in your home started the fire purposefully or if negligence was the underlying cause. In all other cases, including electrical fires, accidental cooking fires, and gas fires, you’ll need to pay a deductible, but the rest of the costs should be covered. Once you have the fire out and the damage has stopped spreading, contact your insurance company to file a claim and get fast approval for remediation.

It depends. For new ovens, it’s best to run a few empty cycles to prepare the oven for use and to keep any manufacturing byproducts from entering your food. But if your oven is smoking due to a few burnt pieces of old food, then it probably won’t hurt to eat it. If there’s a lot of smoke, then your food probably won’t taste good, even if it might not be harmful to consume.

It is not safe to live in a house with smoke damage—even minor smoke damage can lead to long-term health hazards and structural risks. Smoke smells and residue contain particulates and chemical compounds that are dangerous to breathe in and can damage your belongings and your home’s structural materials. Have a trained professional assess your home after a fire to determine when it’s safe to return.

After a house fire, you should not reenter your home unless the fire crew has told you it’s safe to do so. In the longer term, you should not attempt to make repairs to the house on your own. Professional crews are trained to clean up after a fire (including smoke and soot damage), dry out any water damage from the firefighter crews, and make the necessary structural, plumbing, and electrical repairs—and this is all likely covered by insurance.
