At AdvantaClean of Norcross and Buford, we understand the urgency of securing your property to prevent further damage and ensure safety. Our fire mitigation process in Cumming, GA, begins with immediate steps to stabilize and secure your property effectively.

Immediate Response Post-Fire

The first hours after a fire are critical. Our certified Water Restoration Technicians (WRT) and Fire and Smoke Restoration Technicians (FSRT) can assess your home and begin the mitigation process. We prioritize areas most vulnerable to secondary damage from water and smoke, ensuring that these do not exacerbate the initial fire damage.

Post-Fire Boarding Up

Securing your home starts with boarding up damaged windows, doors, and other openings. This step is crucial to protect your home from weather elements and prevent unauthorized access, which can pose safety risks and potential theft.

  • Materials Used: We use sturdy, durable plywood for boarding up because it provides reliable protection against external elements and intrusion.

  • Technique: Our technicians ensure the boards are cut precisely and secured robustly using metal fasteners to withstand winds and other stresses.

Structural Stabilization

Fire can weaken a building's structural stability. The AdvantaClean of Norcross and Buford team evaluates the critical areas that need stabilization and employs various techniques to ensure the building remains safe and intact during restoration.

  • Shoring and Support: Temporary support structures may be installed to prevent partial or complete collapse.

  • Assessment Tools: We use advanced tools to evaluate and monitor the structure's condition continually.
