Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration

Smoke Damage Assessment for Napa Homes and Businesses

Smoke damage is often underestimated because residue can be hard to see. An assessment identifies the type of residue, where it traveled and what cleaning each area needs.

We use visual inspection, residue wipe tests and odor evaluation, and document everything room by room, including attics and HVAC systems.

Residential and Commercial Smoke Damage Assessment

Residential Smoke Damage Assessment

In homes, Smoke Damage Assessment starts with safety, then protects belongings and stops soot from permanently staining surfaces. We protect floors, belongings and the rooms you are still living in, and explain each step before it happens.

Commercial Smoke Damage Assessment

In businesses, Smoke Damage Assessment is planned to reopen quickly and meet health and safety requirements. Daily updates and a single point of contact keep owners and managers informed.

Typical Timeline

Board-up and water removal happen the first visit. Cleaning and deodorizing take several days to a few weeks, and rebuilds can take longer.

DIY or Professional Smoke Damage Assessment?

Wipe a white cloth on a surface. If it comes back gray or black, residue is present.

Napa note: Napa County has lived through the 2017 Atlas Fire, the 2020 LNU Lightning Complex and the 2020 Glass Fire. Homes miles from the fire lines still dealt with smoke and ash in attics, ducts and contents.

What Affects the Cost of Smoke Damage Assessment?

Extent of Fire

Localized versus whole-structure damage.

Soot Type

Protein and oily soot take more cleaning than dry soot.

Contents Volume

How much needs cleaning, pack-out or replacement.

Odor Treatment

Sealing and deodorization requirements.

Typical Cost Range in Napa

A small kitchen fire with localized soot may run $3,000 to $10,000 to clean and repair. Whole-house smoke cleaning after a nearby wildfire often ranges from $4,000 to $20,000 depending on size and contents. Structural fire losses can run much higher. General ranges only.
