FAQs

Fire & Smoke Restoration FAQ — Delaware

Do NOT start cleanup before documenting everything. Photograph and video every room, every damaged item, every structural element. Make a complete list of destroyed items with estimated values. This documentation is the foundation of your claim — once items are moved or removed, it's very difficult to prove their pre-loss condition.

Smoke odor penetrates porous materials — wood, insulation, drywall, HVAC ductwork, and soft goods — and off-gasses over time. Surface cleaning doesn't remove it. Proper smoke remediation requires HEPA air scrubbing, ozone or hydroxyl treatment, sealing of affected surfaces with specific primers (Kilz or BIN shellac-based), and often full duct cleaning. If a restoration company just wiped surfaces and called it done, the job was incomplete.

You can hire a public adjuster (they work on contingency — typically 10–15% of the settlement increase) to advocate for a higher settlement. You can also invoke your policy's appraisal clause, which brings in a neutral umpire to evaluate the dispute. Consult with an attorney who specializes in insurance claims before accepting any settlement you believe is inadequate.

Mild smoke damage (one room, no structural damage): 1–2 weeks. Moderate fire with smoke throughout: 4–8 weeks. Major structural fire: 3–12 months. The timeline depends heavily on insurance processing speed, material lead times, and permit processing. Get a detailed scope of work and timeline in writing from your restoration contractor.

Legitimate restoration contractors do recommend replacing items that look salvageable on the surface but have smoke penetration or structural damage. However, some contractors do over-scope in ways that benefit them and their insurance relationships. Get a second independent assessment from a different IICRC-certified restorer if you have concerns.

Typically no, and you shouldn't want to — active restoration involves strong chemical sealants, ozone treatment (which is harmful to breathe), demolition dust, and open wall cavities. Your homeowner's insurance typically covers Additional Living Expenses (ALE) while your home is uninhabitable — these costs should be submitted to your adjuster immediately.
