Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration

When fire damage occurs, the severity can range from light smoke damage to total destruction of part or all of a building. Whatever the severity, most victims find themselves in unfamiliar territory and rely on insurance professionals and restoration contractors to guide them through this traumatic experience. 

A residential fire will often disrupt the occupant’s normal living patterns, even up to the point where the home may be uninhabitable for several months whilst repairs are carried out.

In commercial situations time may be the most crucial factor as the business may suffer as a result of lost revenue.

Whatever the situation or level of damage it is of paramount importance that the restoration contractor you use to restore the property is an industry accredited professional. Using unqualified contractors can increase the cost of the claim through lack of specialist knowledge and unprofessional workmanship.

SWR Restoration Services highly trained technicians have been accredited by the BDMA (British Damage Management Association), IICRC (Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification), NIDR (National Institute of Disaster Restoration) and WLI (Water Loss Institute) to name but a few. These accreditations are confirmation of our professionalism and commitment to excellence in our field. 

When we receive a new instruction we aim to be on-site within a few hours in order to provide a report on the damage, a concise scope of work and estimated costs. We also carry out necessary emergency decontamination of susceptible items to prevent further damage, which may occur as a result of the corrosive smoke residues. Following the initial emergency response we can usually deploy a restoration team to the site within 24 hours of authorisation to proceed.
