Mount Vernon, WA Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration
As Skagit County's seat, Mount Vernon is one of the most bustling communities of the region. It was deemed the best small city in America in the 1990s and has yet to lose that appeal. Much like any growing community, the potential for disasters grows as well. We have a full division of fire restoration technicians available to help mitigate and recover when these emergencies occur. Once first responders have cleared the property for entry, we can begin vital emergency services to protect our technicians and the house's occupants.
Essential Steps of Fire Mitigation for Mount Vernon
Knowing what professionals intend to do first with your damaged address after a fire can help you appreciate your need for professional restorers. Fires can make living conditions unbearable after extinguishment, requiring multiple mitigative actions to get taken to preserve and protect the property and its contents. The objective of mitigating is to lessen loss and expenses for the customer, and this can involve multiple approaches, such as:
- Water extraction
- Fire debris removal
- Air quality control
- Content relocation

Our Fire Restoration Process
Every fire damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.
Step 1: Emergency Contact
The fire restoration process begins when you call us. Our consultant will guide you through the crisis and may ask several questions to help us better understand the type of fire damage you experienced, determining the equipment and resources needed.
Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment
We determine the scope of the fire and smoke damage by examining the affected areas and by testing the adjoining rooms for smoke and soot damage. An accurate assessment is crucial to the planning process.
Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service (if needed)
In many fire damage cases, it’s necessary to board up missing windows and walls and to place tarps on a damaged roof. This helps to maintain security and to protect against further damage.
Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)
If needed, we can begin the water removal process with powerful pumps and extraction units. This removes most of the water. We complete the water removal and drying process with industrial-strength dehumidifiers and air movers.
Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces
We use specialized equipment and techniques to remove smoke and soot from ceilings, walls, and other surfaces.
Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing
We clean and sanitize the restorable items and structures damaged by the fire. Our professionals use a variety of cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. We’re also trained to remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.
Step 7: Restoration
Restoration is the final step—getting your home or business to its pre-fire condition. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet; or it may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
