"I had an amazing experience with Northstar Restoration. I can say it started from my first contact speaking with their receptionist, then the owner and his wonderful staff. I purchase a new built property which was not cleaned properly, the place was left with dust particles mainly in unfinished basement which spread throughout the whole house. In addition, subcontractors did not use properly coverings so garage floor as well as carpets were impacted. The owner Jay came out and explained how they could help alleviate the issues we faced. He was very thorough in his assessment and presented the options. We ended up getting our garage concrete floor cleaned, basement concrete cleaned and all mechanicals wiped downed and heap vacuum, air ducts cleaned and carpet cleaned. This was a huge project split into 3 days. All of the his technicians were extremely knowledgable and thorough. Because the project was 3 days and different areas I had 6 different technicians they were ALL outstanding. I commend Jay and all of his staff for making this a wonderful experience I could not be more pleased with the outcome. And would not hesitate to use their services in the future if I had a need."

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.

Yes, most homeowner’s insurance companies cover smoke damage if it stems from a covered issue, like a house fire or a wildfire. If you’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.

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.

The first step is removing water or chemical residue, if applicable, after extinguishing. Next, your professional will clean up soot, remove damaged materials, treat the smoke damage, and complete any necessary structural repairs. After that, your pro will begin the build-back process and install finishes to restore your home to its previous condition.

Solar panels that haven’t been properly inspected and maintained pose several risks to homeowners. Firstly, a dirty, obstructed, or malfunctioning solar panel won’t be able to generate as much power, which could lead to power shortages and wasted money. But more importantly, neglected solar panel arrays can become dangerous if left for too long. Corroded wires and exposed circuitry are fire hazards, so it’s strongly recommended to keep up with regular maintenance to protect your home.
