Location: Bridgewater, NJ

Solutions provided:

Homeowner Allison K. reported a small kitchen fire in her Bridgewater, NJ home after a toaster oven overheated and ignited the cabinet above it. Though the fire was contained quickly, it scorched the cabinetry, produced heavy smoke, and spread soot across nearby walls, ceilings, and appliances. Our fire damage restoration team arrived promptly to assess the smoke and soot damage, remove the fire-damaged cabinet, and begin smoke odor removal procedures. Thermal fogging and HEPA filtration were used to treat the affected area, ensuring no lingering smoke particles remained. The surrounding drywall and backsplash required detailed cleaning due to soot staining and smoke residue.

Kitchen fire damage in Bridgewater, NJ often begins with countertop appliances, and even minor fires can result in significant smoke contamination. In this Bridgewater job, we performed targeted cleaning and odor control, along with smoke-damaged drywall removal behind the burned cabinet. The homeowner’s insurance provider approved the fire damage restoration claim, covering all repairs. Fire restoration in Bridgewater typically includes duct system smoke removal, soot cleanup, and deodorization—especially in kitchen fires where confined flames still create widespread smoke. This Bridgewater, NJ fire restoration case illustrates how even small appliance fires require thorough professional cleanup to eliminate all fire-related damage and ensure a safe, odor-free home.
