Your home in Washington, DC is where your life happens - and the people at Fire Damage Doption understand that removing fire damage from a home is completely different from a commercial job. Our residential process is thorough and methodical: every surface, every material, every hidden space.
Soot is acidic and corrosive. Left untreated in your Washington, DC home, it permanently etches into walls, corrodes metal fixtures, and destroys porous surfaces like wood and fabric.

For Washington, DC business owners, a fire is both a property disaster and a revenue crisis that gets worse every single day the business stays closed.

Industrial ozone generation, hydroxyl machine treatment, and thermal fog application - used in combination - are the only way to fully neutralize smoke odor in a Washington, DC property. Air fresheners, candles, and single-pass fogger treatments do not eliminate smoke odor. They mask it temporarily while the underlying contamination continues.
