Michael T. contacted PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration for a fire damage cleanup at his home in Randolph, NJ after an electrical equipment fire occurred in the basement ceiling. The fire was caused by overheated wiring that ignited surrounding insulation and framing, leading to smoke damage and localized structural fire damage. Emergency board-up was not required, but immediate fire restoration services were needed to address soot damage, smoke-damaged drywall, and charred wood framing in Randolph, NJ. Technicians performed a detailed fire damage assessment, followed by removal of fire-damaged insulation and debris from the affected basement area. Specialized soot removal and smoke odor removal methods were used to prevent lingering fire-related odors from spreading throughout the Randolph, NJ property. The fire damage insurance claim was approved, allowing the fire restoration process to move forward without delay.

During the fire restoration in Randolph, NJ, crews focused on cleaning smoke residue from structural surfaces, exposed wiring, and nearby contents impacted by the electrical fire. Smoke-damaged drywall sections were removed, and duct system smoke removal was completed to address smoke migration concerns common after basement fires in Randolph, NJ. Advanced air scrubbing equipment and deodorization treatments were used to fully eliminate smoke odors caused by the electrical equipment fire. The fire damage cleanup also included HEPA vacuuming and detailed surface cleaning to restore the basement to a safe condition. Throughout the project, documentation was maintained for the fire damage insurance claim to support coverage for repairs and restoration in Randolph, NJ. The job concluded with final clearance checks to ensure all fire, smoke, and soot damage had been properly addressed.
