Fire Damage Restoration
A fire in the house, even a small one. Securing, drying, cleaning and rebuilding.
Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out
Belongings that need cleaning, storing or listing for a claim.
Right after a fire: the first hour
- Safety first. Get everyone out and stay out until the fire department says it is safe to go back in (USFA).
- Don’t turn utilities back on yourself. If firefighters shut off gas, power or water, let the utility or a professional restore them.
- Call your insurer and get a claim number.
- Photograph everything before anything is moved or cleaned.
- Secure the property. Have open windows, doors and roof damage boarded up or tarped.

Insurance in Texas, in plain terms
- You photograph. Take photos and video of every room and damaged item before cleanup, and keep receipts.
- The restorer documents. The restoration company records the damage and writes an itemized estimate.
- The adjuster decides. Your insurer decides what the policy covers.
- The deductible is yours. Texas law bars contractors from offering to waive, rebate or absorb it (TDI).
