Michael R. contacted PDQ after a garage fire caused extensive smoke damage and soot contamination throughout his property in Butler, NJ. The fire is believed to have started from an electrical equipment malfunction in the garage, creating heavy smoke conditions that spread into adjacent living spaces in Butler. Our crew performed an emergency assessment of the fire damage, documenting soot deposits on exposed framing, garage surfaces, stored contents, and structural components throughout the Butler home. Fire restoration efforts included debris removal, HEPA vacuuming, smoke-damaged material removal, and detailed cleaning of affected surfaces. Technicians also addressed smoke odor removal using specialized deodorization methods designed to eliminate persistent fire and smoke odors. The fire damage insurance claim was approved, and the restoration work completed in Butler was covered by the homeowner’s insurance carrier.

During the fire restoration process in Butler, NJ, crews removed fire-damaged insulation, cleaned soot-damaged structural members, and performed detailed smoke damage restoration throughout the garage area. Special attention was given to smoke-damaged drywall, contents cleaning, and duct system smoke removal to prevent lingering contamination within the Butler property. The project included fire damage cleanup, odor control, structural cleaning, and preparation for reconstruction activities. Air quality concerns were addressed through filtration and contamination removal procedures commonly used after garage fire damage and electrical fires in Butler. Documentation was maintained throughout the restoration process to support the fire damage insurance claim and verify completed mitigation services. Upon completion, the Butler property was stabilized, cleaned, and ready for the next phase of repairs following the fire and smoke damage event.
