A structure fire changes a Lewiston property in minutes, but the cleanup clock is even less forgiving. Our local crews are equipped to start stabilizing the site the same day you call.
Call +1-866-484-1409Every technician on our Lewiston roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.
Local experience in 83501 means our estimators aren't guessing — they've seen how Lewiston's building department handles fire-damage permits dozens of times before.

Full coverage on every job we run in Lewiston, ID.
A real technician answers the Lewiston line, any hour.
Fire and smoke restoration credentials, not general labor.
We coordinate directly with your adjuster on your behalf.

An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.
Dark residue collecting near vents is a sign your ductwork carried soot into rooms nowhere near the fire.
Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.
Untreated smoke residue starts pitting metal surfaces surprisingly fast — often inside 48 hours.
Airborne residue from a fire can keep irritating your lungs well after the flames are out.
Lewiston, ID insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
None of these six signs get better with time. The Lewiston properties that come through a fire loss with the least long-term damage are almost always the ones where someone called within the first few hours, not the first few days.
Same-day securing of the structure — board-up, tarping, water removal — before the damage compounds.
We treat drywall, contents, and HVAC separately rather than running one blanket chemical wash across everything.
Phased scopes that let Lewiston businesses reopen unaffected sections while the rest of the rebuild continues.
Framing, drywall, and finish carpentry brought back to pre-loss condition and signed off by local Lewiston inspectors.
Hydroxyl generators and thermal fogging break down odor at the source instead of masking it with fragrance.

We'd rather put the guarantee on paper up front than have a disagreement about it once the job is finished.
Change orders require your written sign-off — nothing gets added to the bill without it.
Framing, drywall, and finish work carry a one-year guarantee.
One coordinator manages your Lewiston job from the first call to the final walkthrough.
A guarantee is only as good as the scope it's attached to, which is why we spend extra time getting the initial Lewiston inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
