Complete Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration on Long Island

Experiencing a house fire is traumatic, and the damage extends far beyond what's visible. Smoke and soot penetrate deep into walls, ceilings, HVAC systems, and belongings — and secondary damage from fire suppression water compounds the loss. Greene Group Construction manages the complete restoration process from start to finish.

Our fire damage restoration crews respond immediately with emergency board-up and tarping to secure your home, then transition seamlessly into thorough smoke and soot removal, structural cleaning, odor elimination, and complete rebuilding — using a single contractor you trust throughout your entire recovery.

We coordinate directly with your homeowner's insurance company, preparing detailed documentation and scopes of work to ensure your claim is fully covered. Our team has experience working with all major insurance carriers serving Long Island homeowners.

Fire Damage Questions

Can smoke odor be permanently removed after a house fire?

Yes, but only by treating the source rather than masking it. Smoke residue embeds in porous materials, wall cavities, and HVAC ductwork. Permanent removal means cleaning or removing the affected materials, sealing where necessary, cleaning the duct system, then thermal fogging or hydroxyl treatment. Air fresheners and ozone alone will not hold.

Why is there water damage after a fire?

Fire suppression puts a large volume of water into the structure, and that water keeps causing damage after the fire is out. Wet insulation, saturated drywall, and standing water in wall cavities lead to mold within 24 to 48 hours. That is why fire losses need extraction and structural drying running alongside the soot cleanup.

Should I enter my home after a fire to retrieve belongings?

Not until the structure has been cleared as safe. Fire weakens framing and roof structures in ways you cannot see, soot contains caustic and carcinogenic compounds, and burned synthetics leave toxic residue. Wait for the fire department release and a structural assessment — then we can arrange a supervised retrieval of essential items.

How long does fire damage restoration take?

Board-up and tarping happen the same day. Mitigation — extraction, soot removal, odor treatment — typically runs one to three weeks depending on severity. Reconstruction depends on scope and permit timelines, from several weeks for a contained kitchen fire to several months for major structural loss.

Does homeowners insurance cover fire damage?

Fire is a covered peril under virtually every homeowners policy, including the resulting smoke and suppression water damage. Coverage limits, contents sublimits, and additional living expenses vary by policy. We prepare documentation and scopes of work and file supplements for missed items on covered losses.

Do I need to move out during restoration?

Usually yes for anything beyond a small contained fire, because of air quality, loss of utilities, and active demolition. Most policies include additional living expenses coverage that pays for temporary accommodation. We help document that part of the claim.
