Overview
The fire is only part of the damage. Smoke residue travels through the entire structure, acidic soot etches into surfaces within days, and the water used to put the fire out leaves its own problem behind. Lone Star Restoration of East Dallas handles all three so damage does not keep compounding after the trucks leave.
We start with emergency board-up and tarping to secure the home, then move into soot removal, contents cleaning, and odor neutralization. Salvageable belongings are inventoried and cleaned; unsalvageable material is documented for your claim before removal.
For more information or to schedule fire damage restoration, call or email us directly. We answer 24/7 and can usually have a crew on site the same day.

HEPA filtration, hydroxyl and ozone treatment, and thermal fogging reach the odor that surface cleaning leaves behind.
Furniture, clothing, electronics, and keepsakes are inventoried, cleaned off-site where needed, and returned.
Once cleaning is done we coordinate drywall, paint, flooring, and trim so you are not managing five contractors.
Know The Signs
Even a contained kitchen fire pushes greasy protein smoke through cabinets, HVAC, and adjacent rooms. That residue is nearly invisible but leaves a lasting odor if it is not professionally cleaned.
Burning wire insulation and plastics leave acidic soot that corrodes metal, discolors surfaces, and damages electronics within days if left in place.
Suppression water saturates ceilings, walls, and flooring. Fire jobs are also water jobs, and drying has to start immediately alongside the soot cleanup.
Lingering odor means residue is still present in porous materials, ductwork, or insulation. Air fresheners mask it; proper deodorization removes the source.
Smoke intrusion from an adjacent structure fire still deposits residue on surfaces and in HVAC systems, and still needs professional cleaning to resolve.
A burned roof or blown-out window turns every rainstorm into a second loss. Emergency board-up and tarping should happen within hours, not days.
Our Process
We begin with an emergency response: securing the structure, tarping the roof, boarding openings, and assessing which areas are safe to enter. Suppression water is extracted and drying equipment is set at the same time so moisture damage does not compound the fire loss.
From there we clean soot and smoke residue from structural surfaces, pack out and clean salvageable contents, remove unsalvageable materials, and deodorize the structure with HEPA filtration and fogging. Once the home is clean and odor free, we coordinate the rebuild so it is returned to pre-loss condition.
