FIRE DAMAGE TERMINOLOGY
Structure Fire
Usually any fire in or on a structure is considered a “structural fire”. The amount of damage does not dictate whether or not it’s deemed a structural fire. Structures can be home, non-home or non-residential properties. Non-residential properties include offices, institutions, manufacturing, retail properties and more!
Salvageable vs Unsalvageable
When going through the personal contents of your home, you will be hearing a lot about salvageable contents and unsalvageable contents. Your restoration company is safely going through the damaged items and separating what could be restored.
Generally, non-porous items such as glass and metals are salvageable. Furniture with removable covers, fabrics, clothes, and curtains could be salvageable as long as flames from the fire did not melt them.
Unsalvageable items include: plastics, food (perishable/non-perishable), hygiene products, medicine, cosmetics, damaged fabrics/clothes. Some of these items may not appear damaged, but they absorb the most smoke and chemicals during a fire.

Before & After
A Word from Our Customers
We had a house fire in August of 2021…Phoenix was out same night as fire and had roof patched up to prevent further damage. [They] helped out throughout the insurance claim to make sure nothing was missed for us and his repair team worked through all the hurtles of the insurance company, city codes, and covid issues for employees to make sure that everything went as smooth as possible…I highly recommend their company for all restoration repairs.Get in Touch

Insurance Terminology
Throughout the fire restoration process, our estimating department communicates with the insurance adjuster assigned to your loss. Every necessary documentation and photograph is submitted to the adjuster for their review. Here are common insurance terms that come up:
Dwelling Coverage
The dwelling is the physical structure of the property. Your dwelling insurance will cover most repairs or rebuild costs according to its limits.
Detached Structures
Detached structures or “other structures coverage” helps pay for damaged structures not attached to your dwelling. Items include sheds, fences and detached garages.
Personal Property
This part of your insurance coverage can help replace damaged items after a fire such as appliances, clothes, and furniture.
Limits and Deductibles
The policy limit is the most your insurance will pay for a covered loss. Your deductible is the amount you will pay out-of-pocket towards a covered loss. It is always recommended that you compare repair costs with your deductible on a smaller loss.
Actual Cash Value or Replacement Cost Coverage
Actual cash value coverage helps reimburse you for the depreciated value of damaged items, while replacement cost value coverage typically helps pay to purchase a new item at today’s price.
Always look into your insurance policies.
Your homeowners insurance should cover repairs and some replacements, but the limits vary. Always meet with your insurance agent to identify your limits and deductibles. Intentional fires may not be covered by your insurance

Depending on the severity of a fire, complete restoration could take 3 months to a year.THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT SMOKE DAMAGE
Damage from a fire is not always visible!
Smoke and soot from a fire can greatly affect the structure and is not always visible. Chemicals from the fire can be absorbed into the walls, floors, and contents in the property. Always consult with your restoration company before entering a structure, especially if you have health concerns.
