Fire Crisis & Damage Overview
Fire happens when you least expect it – and can be sparked from some unexpected sources: Electrical malfunctions, space heaters, candles, kitchen fires, motor malfunctions and even holiday decorations can all start a devastating blaze.
Even after the fire is out, danger lingers. Ash and smoke can corrode surfaces, hazardous chemicals and odors may be released, and the structural integrity of your building may be compromised. You will also likely be facing water damage from your sprinkler systems or the fire department.

Who Does the Fire and Smoke Work
Smoke behaves differently depending on what burned. Protein smoke, synthetic soot, and natural-material char each require different cleaning agents and sequences — and using the wrong one sets residue into the surface permanently.
Emergency Mitigation Services is an IICRC Certified Firm (#59937490). Our Director of Operations holds Master Fire & Smoke Restorer, IICRC’s highest fire credential, plus Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration Technician and Odor Control Technician certifications.
Odor Control certification matters more than most homeowners expect. Fire odor lives in porous materials long after visible soot is gone, and neutralizing it is a separate technical process from cleaning — not a matter of masking.
He also holds Master Textile Cleaner, Upholstery and Fabric Cleaning, and Contents Processing certifications, which govern what happens to soft goods and belongings after a fire.

Fire Disaster Tips
After a fire, the safety of you and your employees is first and foremost. Only re-enter the building after told it is safe to do so or with a qualified guide. Once you are permitted back into the building, collect whatever undamaged items you need to run your business remotely and secure your sensitive files and data storage.
- Take photos and start making an inventory of damaged equipment and stock.
- Don’t turn on electrical items or appliances until you are told it is safe to do so.
- Don’t wipe down soot on the walls – it is needed for your insurance claim.
- If you are able, elevate product and machinery. Remember, most items will be full of water and can be very heavy to move – be careful!
- Replace the HVAC filter.
- Tape damp cheesecloth over air registers to collect smoke and soot.
- If you are able, open windows to let the air out.
