Harriman, TN Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration

Because of our proximity to the Emory River and other major water bodies, Harriman homes experience fire losses with higher humidity than many other areas of the country. This can often result in many of these structures contending with thick, wet smoke that can be challenging to clean and remove without industrial-grade cleansers and experienced restoration technicians. Our SERVPRO professionals can respond quickly to fire losses to reduce these conditions' severity and promote a safer work environment for restoration.

What is Fire Mitigation for Harriman Homes? 

The initial steps our technicians take to manage loss effects spreading in a fire-damaged home can reduce out-of-pocket expenses and irreparable damage. Much of these first actions focus on making the work site safer for responding technicians and occupants of the house if they are not displaced. Air filtration practices with HEPA products remove many circulating contaminants and carcinogens down to 0.3 microns in size. Other emergency services and mitigative actions we undertake include:  

  • Content relocation
  • Water removal
  • Controlled demolition 
  • Debris removal 
  • Content cleaning

With a contracting license, we can provide additional helpful services that reduce restoration time and expenses for customers. With our ability to provide repairs and reconstruction when necessary after cleaning, there is a seamless transition from restoration to build back to get you back into the property as soon as possible.

Our Fire Restoration Process

Every fire damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.

Step 1: Emergency Contact

We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week. When you call, one of our representatives will ask a series of questions about the fire damage to your home or business. This information helps us respond immediately with all the needed equipment and resources.

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

We determine the scope of the fire and smoke damage by examining the affected areas and by testing the adjoining rooms for smoke and soot damage. An accurate assessment is crucial to the planning process. 

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service (if needed)

Fire damage can often compromise windows, walls, and roofs. To maintain security and to protect against further damage, we can board up missing windows and walls and place tarps on damaged roofs. 

Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)

If needed, we can begin the water removal process with powerful pumps and extraction units. This removes most of the water. We complete the water removal and drying process with industrial-strength dehumidifiers and air movers. 

Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces

Your property’s ceiling, walls, floors, and other surfaces will likely have smoke and soot residue. We’ll use specialized cleaning products, equipment, and techniques to properly clean your home or business. 

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

We clean and sanitize the restorable items and structures damaged by the fire. Our professionals use a variety of cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. We’re also trained to remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

Step 7: Restoration

Restoration is the final step—getting your home or business to its pre-fire condition. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet; or it may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
