Fire and smoke damage restoration covers four overlapping problems in one home: visible fire damage, smoke residue and odor, water damage from the fire department's response, and contents that have been exposed to heat or soot. Speed matters — soot is acidic and continues to etch glass, mirrors, and finished metals every day it stays on the surface. Earth Saving Solutions secures the structure, contains the affected area, performs HEPA-filtered cleaning, and rebuilds under a single contract so families do not coordinate four separate vendors during a stressful loss.
When fire strikes your property, Earth Saving Solutions provides quick, compassionate, and expert restoration services to help you recover from fire and smoke damage with minimal disruption and maximum care.

Explore examples of our successful fire damage restoration projects, demonstrating our expertise in returning properties to pre-loss condition.
This restoration project began after an unattended cooking fire caused significant damage to a family home. The fire originated in the kitchen but smoke damage extended throughout the main floor and into the second story of the home. Water damage from firefighting efforts further complicated the restoration needs.
Our team performed complete smoke remediation throughout the home, including specialized cleaning of contents, removal of affected building materials, and thorough deodorization. The kitchen required complete reconstruction, including new cabinetry, countertops, appliances, and flooring. Through careful coordination with the homeowner's insurance company, we completed the restoration within budget and returned the family to a fully restored home within 8 weeks of the fire incident.
When an electrical fire damaged this retail clothing store, the owner faced not only structural damage but significant inventory loss and business interruption. The fire affected approximately 40% of the 3,500 square foot space, with smoke and water damage impacting the entire store and inventory.
Our commercial restoration team implemented a rapid response plan that included emergency board-up, water extraction, and smoke mitigation. We established a phased restoration approach that allowed partial reopening of the unaffected portion of the store within 10 days. Specialized content restoration saved approximately 60% of the smoke-affected inventory, while our construction division completed structural repairs and interior reconstruction. The business was fully operational within 45 days, minimizing revenue loss while ensuring complete restoration.
While Earth Saving Solutions is always ready to respond to fire emergencies, we believe that prevention is the best protection. Consider these fire safety measures to help protect your property and loved ones:
Install smoke alarms on every level of your home or business, inside bedrooms and outside sleeping areas. Test monthly, replace batteries annually, and replace units every 10 years.
Keep accessible fire extinguishers in key locations, particularly in kitchens and near potential fire hazards. Ensure all family members or employees know how to use them properly.
Develop and practice a fire escape plan with two exits from every room and a designated meeting place outside. In commercial settings, conduct regular fire drills and clear evacuation training.
Avoid overloading outlets, regularly inspect cords for damage, and have professional inspections of electrical systems, especially in older properties or after renovations.
Never leave cooking unattended, keep flammable items away from heat sources, and maintain clean cooking surfaces to prevent grease buildup that can fuel fires.
Maintain safe distances between heating equipment and flammable materials, have annual professional inspections of furnaces and chimneys, and use appropriate screens for fireplaces.

Answers to common questions about fire and smoke damage restoration:
Restoration should begin as soon as possible after a fire. The corrosive nature of smoke residue can cause permanent damage within hours, while water from firefighting efforts can lead to mold growth within 24-48 hours. Our emergency response teams are available 24/7 to begin immediate mitigation services.
Many smoke-damaged items can be successfully restored with proper techniques. The restoration potential depends on the type of item, extent of damage, and how quickly restoration begins. Our content restoration specialists evaluate each item individually and utilize specialized cleaning methods to save as many possessions as possible.
Restoration timelines vary based on the extent of damage, size of the property, and specific restoration requirements. Minor smoke damage might be resolved in a few days, while significant structural damage can require months for complete restoration. We provide detailed timeline estimates during the assessment phase.
Most homeowners and commercial property insurance policies cover fire damage restoration, including smoke damage and water damage from firefighting efforts. Coverage specifics vary by policy. Our team works directly with insurance companies to maximize your coverage and minimize out-of-pocket expenses.
We use a multi-faceted approach to eliminate smoke odors, including HEPA air filtration, thermal fogging, ozone or hydroxyl treatments, specialized cleaning agents, and sealing when necessary. Our comprehensive deodorization process addresses both airborne odors and those absorbed into materials throughout the property.
Even minor fires can create unsafe conditions through structural damage, electrical hazards, slip and fall risks, respiratory concerns from soot particles, or contaminated water. We recommend professional assessment before occupying a fire-damaged property, with temporary relocation often advisable during restoration.
Our emergency response team is available 24/7 to help with fire and smoke damage emergencies. Call us now for immediate assistance or to schedule a consultation for your restoration needs.
CALL 720-309-5679Most projects finish in 14–90 days. Two to three weeks for emergency stabilization, pack-out, structural cleaning, and odor removal on a partial loss. Larger losses with extensive structural repair, kitchen rebuilds, or full reconstructions can run 60 to 90 days or more. We share a written timeline at the contract signing and update it weekly through the project.
| Aspect | Partial loss | Total loss |
|---|---|---|
| Definition | Structural members and a meaningful portion of the home are salvageable | Repair cost approaches or exceeds the dwelling's replacement value |
| Typical scope | Stabilize, pack-out contents, demo affected materials, structural cleaning, odor removal, rebuild affected rooms | Demolition to grade, removal of debris, full rebuild from foundation up |
| Insurance treatment | Paid as repair under the dwelling coverage, subject to deductible and policy limits | Paid out at the dwelling's replacement value (replacement-cost policies) or actual cash value |
| Timeline | 30 to 90 days typical | 6 to 12 months from claim opening to reoccupancy |
Soot is corrosive and acidic and starts etching glass, polished stone, and finished metals within hours. Plastic, vinyl, and synthetic surfaces yellow and stain in 24 to 48 hours. Smoke odor sets into porous materials — drywall, fabric, insulation, paper, wood — every hour the materials stay exposed. The first 72 hours after a fire is when the most preventable secondary damage happens, which is why early board-up and containment matter even when full reconstruction will not start for weeks.
Most contents can be saved with professional cleaning if they are handled within the first week. Hard goods (wood furniture, dishes, electronics) are wiped down and either cleaned in place or sent to a contents-restoration facility. Soft goods (clothing, bedding, drapes) go through ozone-and-laundry treatment for smoke odor. Some items — heirloom upholstery soaked in water, electronics with smoke inside the case, paper documents close to the fire source — may be a total loss; we inventory and document each item with you for the claim.
Most homeowners and renters policies in Colorado include 'loss of use' or 'additional living expense' coverage that pays for temporary lodging, meals above your normal grocery spend, pet boarding, and laundry while the home is uninhabitable. The benefit is usually capped at 20–30 percent of the dwelling coverage. Save every receipt, including mileage to and from the displaced location, and submit them with the claim. We can help you build that file if needed.
Smoke odor removal is a multi-stage process: source removal (cleaning or replacing materials that absorbed smoke), HEPA air scrubbing during the work, sealing remaining surfaces with an odor-encapsulating primer when appropriate, and a final treatment with hydroxyl generators or ozone to neutralize lingering odor molecules. We test the result with our crew's olfactory pass and a third-party inspector if the homeowner requests one. Painting alone does not remove smoke odor; if a contractor offers only a paint-and-deodorize package, ask what their process is for the source removal.
Sometimes. The ductwork is almost always cleaned because soot and smoke pull through the entire duct system once the air handler runs again. The air handler itself, the heat exchanger, and the cabinet may be cleaned in place or replaced depending on the soot load and any heat damage. We coordinate with a licensed HVAC contractor on every fire restoration and the carrier scope usually covers the cleaning or replacement that is required.
Sometimes — depends on whether the fire affected mechanical systems shared with the unaffected area. If electrical, gas, plumbing, and HVAC for the unaffected wing are intact and safe, and we can build a containment barrier between the work area and the living space, partial occupancy is workable. If shared systems are down, or the smoke smell makes the air uncomfortable, most families choose to relocate for the duration of the project.
Yes. Discard any unsealed food, perishables, refrigerated items, and medications that were exposed to smoke, heat, or fire-fighting water. Sealed canned goods can usually be wiped down and kept if the cans are not bulged or rusted; check with the carrier for line-item disposition. Frozen food typically gets discarded if the freezer has been off for more than 4 hours, and your insurance policy usually covers food spoilage as a separate covered loss.
Look for IICRC certifications in Fire and Smoke Restoration (FSRT) and Odor Control (OCT), 24/7 dispatch, and direct experience with Colorado insurance carriers. Ask whether the same company handles emergency board-up, contents pack-out, structural cleaning, odor removal, and reconstruction — splitting the work among multiple vendors usually adds weeks to the timeline and creates seams in the warranty. Read reviews from real Colorado homeowners and confirm the company is licensed and carries general liability plus workers compensation insurance.
