(847) 316-9145What Is Fire Damage Restoration? A Precise, Technical, and Safety-Critical Process
Fire restoration is far more complex than debris cleanup. In Deerfield homes and businesses, fires create chemical residues, structural instability, hidden corrosion, and dangerous airborne particulates. Effective restoration requires ANSI/IICRC S700-compliant procedures, specialized HEPA filtration, advanced odor neutralization, and the oversight of a certified Master Fire & Water Restorer.
Our team protects your health, stabilizes the structure, prevents secondary damage, and restores your property to a safe, clean, pre-loss condition.
Emergency Response & Damage Stabilization — When Every Minute Matters
Fire damage continues long after flames are extinguished. Hot surfaces, displaced insulation, damaged wiring, saturated drywall, and acidic soot begin degrading your property immediately.
ServiceMaster Restoration By Simons – Lake County provides fast 24/7 emergency response to Deerfield and nearby areas including Bannockburn, Riverwoods, Highland Park, Lincolnshire, Lake Forest, and Northbrook.
We quickly secure the property, evaluate structural risks, board up openings, tarp roofs, and begin stabilizing affected areas to prevent collapse, mold, odor absorption, and corrosion.
Water Damage Mitigation Following a Fire Incident
Most fires require significant water to extinguish flames. That water—combined with soot and smoke—creates the perfect conditions for mold growth, electrical instability, and material degradation.
We provide immediate water extraction, structural drying, moisture mapping, dehumidification, and environmental monitoring to stop secondary damage in Deerfield’s single-family homes, condos, and commercial buildings.
Smoke, Soot & Odor Removal — Restoring Clean, Safe Indoor Air and Surfaces
Soot is toxic, acidic, and capable of permanently damaging surfaces within hours. Smoke infiltrates wall cavities, insulation, carpets, HVAC ducts, and personal items.
Our certified technicians use industry-leading HEPA vacuums, alkaline cleaners, thermal fogging, hydroxyl treatment, and S700-approved protocols to:
- Neutralize smoke odor at the molecular level
- Remove corrosive soot from structural materials
- Purify indoor air and eliminate particulate hazards
- Prevent long-term staining, discoloration, and corrosion
This level of cleaning is essential for homes in Deerfield, Highland Park, Lake Forest, Bannockburn, Riverwoods, and Lincolnshire where HVAC systems and multi-story layouts can distribute contaminants quickly.
Content Cleaning & Personal Property Restoration
Fire impacts more than the structure—it affects your belongings.
We provide specialized pack-out, inventory, cleaning, and restoration services for items such as clothing, electronics, cookware, furniture, documents, and artwork.
Using ultrasonic cleaning, deodorization chambers, and climate-controlled storage, we restore salvageable items whenever possible and maintain full transparency through digital inventory systems.
