Residential Fire & Smoke Damage Removal in Stillwater, MN

Your home in Stillwater, MN is where your life happens - and the people at Fire Damage Doption understand that removing fire damage from a home is completely different from a commercial job.

  • Complete charred debris clearing and EPA-compliant disposal from your Stillwater, MN home
  • Industrial soot removal from all walls, ceilings, floors, and structural surfaces
  • Permanent smoke odor neutralization - not masking - using professional-grade equipment

Soot & Odor

Soot, Smoke Odor & Specialized Removal in Stillwater, MN

The visible soot on Stillwater, MN walls and ceilings is just a fraction of the contamination after a fire. If it isn't removed from all penetrated surfaces simultaneously, the smell returns within weeks and the invisible health risk persists indefinitely.

Smoke odor in a Stillwater, MN property after a fire is a chemical contamination, not just a smell. Industrial ozone generation, hydroxyl machine treatment, and thermal fog application - used in combination - are the only way to fully neutralize smoke odor in a Stillwater, MN property. If another contractor tried to handle your Stillwater, MN smoke odor without industrial equipment and you're still smelling it - call us.

  • Industrial ozone generator treatment for deep-penetrating smoke odor in Stillwater, MN properties
  • Hydroxyl machine treatment - safe for occupied areas during ongoing remediation
  • Thermal fog reaching every odor particle in hard-to-access areas of your Stillwater, MN property
  • Non-abrasive dry ice blasting for ornate woodwork and sensitive surfaces in Stillwater, MN homes
  • Post-fire mold prevention treatment for Stillwater, MN properties with firefighting water exposure
