The fire is out — now the clock starts on soot, smoke odor, and the water left behind. H&H Restoration secures, cleans, and rebuilds fire-damaged Baltimore properties 24/7, and manages the insurance claim with you.
Time-Sensitive
Fire damage doesn't stop when the flames do. Within hours, acidic soot residue begins etching glass, pitting metal, and permanently staining plastics, grout, and finishes. Smoke odor bonds deeper into drywall, fabrics, and framing every day it's left untreated.
That's why the first 24 hours matter as much as the first responders. H&H crews secure the property immediately — board-up, roof tarping, fencing off hazards — then move straight into stabilization: extracting firefighting water, corralling soot before it migrates, and setting the drying and cleaning plan.
Because we're also Baltimore's water damage restoration company, the water side of your fire loss is handled by the same certified team, on the same claim, without a second contractor.
Professional fire restoration starts by identifying the residue, because each type demands different chemistry.
From paper and wood fires. Powdery residue that wipes relatively cleanly but penetrates cracks and porous surfaces.
From plastic and rubber fires. Sticky, smeary, pungent residue that ruins finishes if wiped with the wrong method.
Nearly invisible film with an intense odor that discolors paint and varnish over time.
Smoke pulled through returns coats the ductwork and re-releases odor every time the system runs. We assess and can pair restoration with professional duct cleaning.
Complete fire recovery under one roof — from emergency board-up to full rebuild and insurance support.
Board-up, roof tarping, and temporary weatherproofing — any hour.
Removing and drying the firefighting water left soaking into your structure.
Matched to residue type, surface by surface — the right chemistry for each.
Professional deodorization that neutralizes odor at the source rather than masking it.
Inventorying, cleaning, and storing salvageable belongings while the structure is restored.
Controlled demolition and disposal of unsalvageable materials.
From drywall and flooring to complete room rebuilds via our reconstruction and remodeling team.
Photo documentation, itemized estimates, and direct communication with your adjuster.
Call (410) 960-1263 as soon as the fire department releases the property. We dispatch immediately to board up openings, tarp the roof, and make the site safe and weather-tight.
We document everything for your claim, extract firefighting water, identify soot types, and stop secondary damage — corrosion, staining, and moisture — before it spreads.
Soot removal, odor elimination, contents cleaning, and reconstruction proceed on a clear written scope and timeline, until your property is back to pre-loss condition.
