The electrical equipment fire was quickly extinguished, but it produced heavy soot damage and dense smoke that traveled throughout multiple rooms of the Boonton, NJ property. Although the structural fire was contained to one area, acidic soot residue coated walls, trim, flooring, and personal belongings. Our team responded to Boonton, NJ to begin the Fire Restoration Process, performing a detailed fire damage assessment and implementing immediate smoke odor removal procedures. Smoke-damaged drywall and charred trim were carefully evaluated to determine the extent of demolition and cleaning required. The homeowner in Boonton, NJ filed a fire damage insurance claim, and the fire damage cleanup and restoration services were covered by insurance.
