The Fire Damage Restoration Process in Elmhurst
Recovering from a fire follows a careful, ordered sequence that protects what survived and rebuilds what didn't. Here is how our certified ServiceMaster team approaches fire and smoke damage restoration for Elmhurst homes and businesses.
- Emergency contact & assessment. Call our 24/7 line and a crew responds quickly to Elmhurst, inspects the structure, and documents the full extent of fire, smoke, soot, and water damage for your insurer.
- Board-up, roof tarping & site security. We board broken windows and openings and tarp damaged roofs to keep weather, debris, and intruders out while restoration is planned.
- Water removal & drying. Water used to fight the fire is extracted and the structure is dried with commercial air movers and dehumidifiers to head off mold and further loss.
- Soot & smoke residue cleanup. Walls, ceilings, contents, and surfaces are cleaned of soot and acidic smoke residue before it can stain and corrode permanently.
- Odor removal. Lingering smoke odor is neutralized at the source using thermal fogging, ozone treatment, and air scrubbing rather than simply masking the smell.
- Restoration & reconstruction. From drywall, paint, and flooring to full room rebuilds, we restore your Elmhurst property to its pre-fire condition.
Signs You Need Fire Damage Restoration in Elmhurst

- Soot, staining, or yellow-brown discoloration on walls and ceilings
- Charred or scorched framing, drywall, cabinetry, and personal belongings

Fire Damage Restoration FAQs — Elmhurst, IL
How much does fire damage restoration cost in Elmhurst?
Full fire restoration in Elmhurst commonly ranges from about $3,000 to $26,000 or more, depending on how severe the fire was, how far smoke and soot spread, and how much reconstruction is required. Smoke-specific cleanup often runs roughly $200 to $1,200 per room. We assess the damage in detail and work with your insurer before major work begins.
Does homeowners insurance cover fire and smoke damage?
In most cases, yes. Standard homeowners (HO-3) policies generally cover accidental fire and smoke damage to your structure and contents, plus additional living expenses if you have to relocate during repairs. Coverage details vary by policy, so we document everything thoroughly and coordinate directly with your insurance company throughout the claim.
How do you remove smoke smell after a fire?
Smoke odor is removed at the source, not just covered up. After cleaning soot and residue from surfaces and contents, our crews use thermal fogging, ozone treatment, and air scrubbing to neutralize the odor molecules trapped in walls, fabrics, and HVAC systems so the smell does not keep returning in your Elmhurst home.
What are the steps in the fire restoration process?
The process follows a clear order: emergency assessment and documentation, board-up and roof tarping to secure the site, removal of water left from firefighting, soot and smoke residue cleanup, odor removal with thermal fogging or ozone, and finally restoration and reconstruction to return your Elmhurst property to pre-fire condition.
Why is there water damage after a fire?
Putting out a fire usually means a large volume of water and sometimes chemical suppressants soak into floors, walls, and contents. If that water is not removed and the structure dried quickly, it can lead to warping, swelling, and mold. That is why water extraction and drying are an early part of every fire restoration project.
Is my home safe to stay in after a fire?
Often it is not, at least initially. Soot and smoke residue can be acidic and irritating, the structure may be compromised, and firefighting water creates hazards. Always follow guidance from the fire department. Our crews assess safety, secure the property, and work to make it livable again as quickly as is safe.
How long does fire damage restoration take?
Timelines vary with the severity of the fire. Securing the property, removing water, and cleaning soot can take several days, while odor removal and full reconstruction may extend the project for weeks on larger losses. We provide a clear scope after assessing your Elmhurst property and keep you updated at each stage.

What Our Customers Say
Incredible customer service. I had a major leak in my crawl space that leaked into the basement after a major thunderstorm. Adam and his crew were onsite within the hour with their equipment to dry out, disinfect, and restore the basement to prevent mold and water damage. They did an amazing job. Phenomenal customer service, honest and easy to work with. I highly recommend this team for any emergency services needed. 5 star experience.
— Sam H
ServiceMaster was suggested my by insurance agent as a company that “everybody” seems to be happy with. With flooded floors in my elderly mother’s condo. Without all of the details, I can say they are efficient, professional, and effective. They moved all furniture and personal belongings as many times as it took to get dried out and all the finishes restored. Adam at the Lisle, Il location has it all together and made it a simple solution within a huge disaster for an 89 year old. There are barely words for how well it went. I will trust them fully if the cloud of disaster strikes us again.
