Fire and smoke damage restoration in Cairns

After a fire in Cairns

Cairns humidity means water from firefighting does not leave on its own. Timber and furnishings stay damp, and the smoke smell binds to that damp. A shop in the city and a house at Smithfield both need the wet areas separated from the smoked areas before anything is thrown away. Some contents can be cleaned. Some cannot. That is an inspection, not a guess on the phone.

Fire Restoration works with homes and businesses across Australia, including Cairns. Call 0435 118 851 once the fire brigade has said the property is safe to enter. Tell us the suburb, whether anyone is still out of the building, and whether the damage is smoke, charring, or water from putting the fire out.

What we clean

• Soot on walls, ceilings, glass and contents, without smearing it further.
• Smoke odour in soft furnishings, cupboards and roof spaces.
• An inventory of what can be cleaned and what cannot, so an insurance claim has a list rather than a guess.
• Water left by firefighting, which is part of most structure fires and needs drying as well as smoke cleaning.

We do not publish a promise that a technician is a fixed number of minutes away. Attendance depends on the address and what the job needs. The phone call is how that gets arranged.

Questions

Should I start cleaning before you arrive?

No. Wiping soot spreads it. Take photos if it is safe, keep the power off if the brigade told you to, and call.

Does this cover a business as well as a house?

Yes. Shops, offices, clubs, factories and homes. Say which one it is so the right equipment is discussed.

Do you only work in Cairns?

No. Cairns is one of the cities we cover. The full list is on the locations page.
