Fire & Smoke Damage · Northern New Jersey
After the Fire, Do Not Guess Who to Call.
Fire damage may involve structural concerns, soot, smoke odor, and water from firefighting efforts. Tell us what happened and we will check our network for an independent restoration company near you.
What to do immediately
- Re-enter only after the fire department clears the structure.
- Do not turn utilities back on yourself.
- Do not wipe soot from walls or upholstery — it can drive residue deeper.
- Open windows only if the fire department confirms it is safe.
- Start a written inventory and photo record for your claim.
If there is fire, gas, structural, or electrical danger, call 911 or your utility company before anything else. This page is general guidance, not professional advice for your specific property.
Damage indicators to look for
- Soot film on walls, ceilings, or HVAC vents
- Lingering smoke odor in fabrics and drywall
- Charring, warping, or heat-damaged framing
- Water damage from suppression efforts
- Discolored or corroded metal fixtures and electronics
What an independent local provider may handle
- Board-up, tarping, and site stabilization
- Water removal from firefighting efforts
- Soot and residue cleaning of surfaces and contents
- Smoke odor treatment and air scrubbing
- Reconstruction coordination and claim documentation
Scope, methods, and pricing are determined by the independent company you hire, not by Restoration Network.
