Call +1-866-484-1409We opened in the South Eliot area because too many homeowners were getting a two-week wait for a "24/7" restoration company. Our trucks stage locally so that promise actually means something.

If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.
Dark residue collecting near vents is a sign your ductwork carried soot into rooms nowhere near the fire.

Waiting too long to document damage is one of the more common reasons South Eliot, ME fire claims get partially denied.
