"Best description? Superior work. Thoughtful interaction and patience with the many questions. This was my first experience with work of this nature. Bo, the manager, could not have been more helpful. Alex and Ford worked endlessly to mitigate the mold and at the same time were informative and attentive to my questions. Excellence is the word that describes both their effort and the manner in which they took time to educate me on the remediation. Bo went out of his way to respond to both issues and questions."

Raised on a farm we offer the work ethic and core values to complete your restoration efficiently and professionally. Our knowledge of the insurance industry will also alleviate the pressures of dealing with your claim

"We would not recommend Emergency Disaster Recovery service; they bid a complete project but only had staff to complete stage one which left open exterior walls in the winter months and left us scrambling to finish the project. Scope of work changed with-out any communication. We felt they lacked professionalism and when they did communicate it was accusatory not solution-minded.Overall experience was less than one star."

"Water clean up and restoration. Steve and Tina were out within the hour to begin clean up. After getting the water cleaned up on the main level - the basement was cringe worthy - but they dived right in to tear out carpet, discard ceiling drill holes to dry out dry wall. They work hard and fast to minimize permanent damage to our basement. They offered a quote to do the repair work (replace ceiling tiles, replace carpet, repair dry wall and paint. But they were just as happy to let us do the work our selves or hire someone else as well. Steve and Tina were wonderful to work with."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

Fire damage restoration can take as little as a week to repair minor damage, but a full property renovation after a major fire can take longer than a year, including time to get approval for the work and get your contractors paid through your insurance company. Overall, it’s always best to talk to your insurance provider and your repair team about your individual situation to get the best estimate.

Luckily, you can typically eliminate your microwave’s burnt smell within a few hours for most situations. Be sure to let it air out for two to three hours after cleaning to let the odor evacuate your home—if you close your home up too early, the odor will be trapped. For stronger, more stubborn burnt smells, it might take a full day or more to really notice a difference. 

Yes, professionals use specialized treatments to remove smoke odors and improve indoor air quality.

The first thing you should do when cleaning smoke damage is open all your windows to ventilate the affected area and run an air purifier with a HEPA filter. Cover your furniture and belongings to prevent soot accumulation, and vacuum any soot that’s on the floor and other surfaces. Be sure to wear a mask, gloves, and eye protection when cleaning the affected area.
