After the fire is out, the real recovery begins. We remove soot and smoke odor and rebuild your Salt Lake City property from the ground up.
A fire is one of the most devastating things that can happen to a Salt Lake City home or business — and the damage doesn't stop when the flames are out. Smoke and soot keep working long after, staining surfaces, corroding metal and electronics, and driving a stubborn odor deep into porous materials. RJM Restoration steps in immediately to secure your property and begin recovery before that secondary damage sets in.
Firefighting almost always leaves significant water behind, so nearly every fire job begins with the same urgency as water damage restoration: extracting water and drying the structure to prevent mold and warping. From there our IICRC-certified team cleans soot from every surface, uses professional-grade equipment to neutralize odor at the source, and restores salvageable contents rather than replacing them wherever possible.
Because saturated materials from fire suppression can breed spores within days, we inspect for and address any resulting mold growth as part of a complete restoration. Throughout the process we document every detail for your insurance company and coordinate the claim directly, so you can focus on your family instead of paperwork.
We evaluate structural safety, then board up and tarp openings to protect your property from weather and intrusion.
We extract firefighting water and dry the structure to stop mold and prevent further deterioration.
Specialized cleaning agents lift soot and smoke residue from walls, ceilings, fixtures, and contents.
Thermal fogging, hydroxyl and ozone treatment, and HEPA air scrubbing neutralize smoke odor at the molecular level.
We repair and rebuild damaged areas so your home is fully restored to its pre-loss condition.
Yes. Even light smoke leaves acidic residue that continues to etch surfaces and can pose health risks. Professional cleaning stops that ongoing damage and removes odor that household products can't.
It can. We treat odor at the source using thermal fogging, hydroxyl/ozone treatment, and air scrubbing rather than just masking it, so the smell doesn't return once the equipment is gone.
Absolutely. Fire claims are complex, and we document the loss in detail, provide a full scope of work, and bill your insurer directly to keep the process moving.
It depends on the severity — small jobs can take a few days, while major structural rebuilds take several weeks. We give you a clear timeline after the initial assessment.
