Assessment
The first step in the process, assuming you have already called for is the assessment. Upon arrival, the team will assess and inspect the entire premises. They need to know the true extent of the damage. In doing so, they can make a clear plan on how best to move forward.
Mitigation
Next, we will begin mitigating damage. With a fire, all systems are compromised. As such, the team will need to turn off the water to the house, shut off the electricity system, and ensure there are no gas leaks. Then, they will take steps to remove potentially restorable items from the affected areas.
Cleanup
Next comes the decontamination portion of the process. The team, using advanced equipment and techniques, will clean smoke, dust, and soot from all surfaces This step is also when the team will begin the water damage restoration process. The fire brigade has likely dumped hundreds of gallons of water into the property too.

HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) Vacuums – A strong vacuum with filters to trap particles such as soot on surfaces.
