Fire Damage Restoration FAQ
Call 911 first if the fire is still active, then contact DCR Dakota Cleaning & Restoration at (605) 337-3133. Do not enter the building until authorities say it’s safe. Avoid touching soot-covered items and don’t attempt to clean anything yourself, as improper cleaning can cause permanent damage. Document everything with photos for insurance claims before we begin restoration.
Fire damage restoration typically takes 1-4 weeks depending on the extent of damage. Minor smoke damage cleanup can be completed in 2-3 days, while major structural fire damage may require 3-6 weeks. Our team provides a detailed timeline during the initial assessment. We work 24/7 when necessary to minimize disruption and get you back in your property as quickly as possible.
Yes, most homeowners insurance policies cover fire damage restoration, including smoke damage, soot removal, and structural repairs. DCR works directly with all major insurance companies and offers direct billing to minimize your out-of-pocket expenses. We help document damage, provide detailed estimates, and communicate with adjusters throughout the claims process. Always contact your insurance company within 24-48 hours of the incident.
Smoke odor removal requires a 4-step professional process: First, we remove all soot and debris. Second, we clean all surfaces with specialized deodorizing agents. Third, we use industrial ozone generators and thermal fogging to neutralize odor molecules in porous materials. Finally, we seal affected surfaces with odor-blocking primers. DIY methods like air fresheners only mask odors temporarily – professional treatment is necessary for permanent elimination.
Fire damage restoration involves structural repairs, debris removal, and rebuilding damaged areas. Smoke damage restoration focuses on cleaning soot residue, eliminating odors, and restoring contents without structural damage. Smoke can travel throughout an entire building, affecting rooms far from the fire source. Both require IICRC-certified technicians and specialized equipment, but smoke damage is often more extensive than visible fire damage.
This depends on the extent of damage and safety concerns. Minor smoke damage may allow you to stay in unaffected areas, but major fire damage typically requires temporary relocation. Health hazards include soot particles, chemical residues, and compromised air quality. If utilities (electricity, water, gas) are damaged, the property is uninhabitable. We assess safety during our initial inspection and provide honest recommendations for your family’s wellbeing.
