Raleigh's fire-restoration market overlaps heavily with its water-damage market, and its reviews carry the same signature: drying-process discipline, drywall removal done cleanly, and communication that doesn't drop mid-job. Duct cleaning appears as its own theme — smoke odor in HVAC systems is a recurring Triangle complaint.
"Easy process" and "courteous staff" lead the tags, and insurance navigation appears steadily. For fire work specifically, ask whether duct and HVAC treatment is in scope, how contents are tracked if packed out, and how the crew documents for your adjuster — the record here says those are the pressure points.

Fire losses are priced by how far smoke, heat and firefighting water traveled — the fire itself is often the smaller part of the bill. Nearly every serious fire job includes a water job: what the hoses soaked is on a mold clock within days.
| Damage level | Typical scope | Typical cost |
|---|---|---|
| Minor — smoke & soot | Cleaning, deodorizing, repaint; no structural work | $2,000 – $8,000 |
| Moderate — room + water | Teardown, dry-out of firefighting water, rebuild of affected rooms | $8,000 – $30,000 |
| Major — structural | Reconstruction, full contents pack-out, temporary housing | $30,000 – $100,000+ |
What to do after the fire is out — before and while a restoration crew is on the way.
Don't re-enter until the fire department clears the structure. Heat-weakened floors and damaged wiring injure more people after the fire than the fire does.
Fire is a covered core peril on essentially every homeowners policy. Ask about board-up coverage and Additional Living Expenses — the hotel tonight may be reimbursable.
Document every room before cleanup. Don't wipe soot — the wrong technique smears it permanently — and don't run the HVAC, which spreads soot through the house.
Everything the hoses soaked is on the same 24–48h mold timeline as a flood. Drying starts now, not after the adjuster's visit.
