Fires leave behind more than charred debris—smoke damage, soot, and odors can spread throughout a property. Our Orange County fire and smoke damage restoration team handles cleanup, odor removal, and structural repairs. We use specialized air scrubbers, HEPA vacuums, and ozone treatments to restore indoor air quality. From kitchen fires in Huntington Beach to electrical fires in Santa Ana, our professionals clean, repair, and reconstruct damaged spaces. We also work with insurance providers to make the restoration process stress-free and efficient.
When disaster strikes, protecting your belongings is just as important as repairing your property.

Water spreads into places you can’t see—under floors, inside walls, and behind cabinets. Our Orange County water damage restoration team uses commercial-grade tools to find hidden moisture and dry structures fast, preventing mold growth and structural damage while reducing repair time and cost.
Pumps: Submersible and truck-mounted units quickly remove standing water from rooms, basements, and crawl spaces.
Air Movers: High-velocity axial/centrifugal fans speed evaporation across floors, walls, and under cabinets.
Dehumidifiers: LGR/desiccant systems capture water vapor and control humidity to safe levels during drying.
Thermal Imaging: Infrared cameras map hidden moisture behind drywall and insulation without destructive demo.
Certified technicians perform a full assessment to locate all visible and hidden moisture. We use thermal imaging, hygrometers, and pin/probe moisture meters to map affected walls, floors, and cavities. You’ll get photos, readings, and a clear scope for your Orange County property and insurance.
We stop the source, extract standing water with pumps, and set a targeted drying plan. High-velocity air movers and LGR/desiccant dehumidifiers reduce humidity, while containment and antimicrobial treatments help prevent mold and odors. We monitor daily and adjust equipment for optimal drying.
Once dry to IICRC standards, we repair and rebuild: drywall, insulation, baseboards, flooring, cabinets, and paint. We clean and deodorize, verify final moisture readings, and handle documentation for your insurer. Your space is returned to safe, pre-loss condition—often better than before.
