AFTER THE DESTRUCTION
​You’ve had a fire.  It’s out but now you are faced with the aftermath, everything from charred remains to smoke and soot damage.  The firemen did a great job but in the process windows may be broken and water is everywhere.
 

Every fire event is different.  Only an expert can properly lead you to a successful outcome.
 

Here is where TLC can help:
 

1. SECURE THE BUILDING
   We will board up and secure your home or business.
2. INSPECTION
   We will do a careful and thorough inspection to determine the extent of the damage.  The result of a fire can be far reaching.  Acidic soot particles are minute and can find their way into the smallest of openings, sometimes far from the origin of the fire.
3. WATER REMOVAL AND DRYING
   Our team will immediately begin extracting water left behind by the fire crew extinguishing the fire.  A drying process will begin using dehumidifiers and air movers. Left alone further structural damage can occur and encourage mold growth and rot.
4. CLEAN UP
   We will then begin the process of removing and disposing of all charred and non-recoverable items. Once these items are removed, structural bracing may be required to secure walls and ceilings.
5. CLEANING AND SANITIZING
   Using a wide range of cleaning techniques, all recoverable items and structure will be cleaned to restore them to their pre-loss condition.  Special cleaning agents are designed to remove smoke and soot from your personal items that, if left untreated, would result in discoloration and pitting.
6. RESTORATION
   The final step is restoring your home or place of business to pre-fire condition.  Our team of professionals will make minor repairs which may include installing drywall, painting, wood flooring, carpeting, to major repairs such as reconstruction of walls and ceilings.
