When fire strikes your Pomona property, the aftermath leaves more than visible charring. Smoke infiltrates wall cavities, soot corrodes metal surfaces, and firefighting water pools in subfloors. Clean and Dry Restoration delivers complete fire damage restoration in Pomona CA, addressing every layer of destruction from initial board-up through final rebuild. Our certified technicians respond around the clock to assess structural integrity, extract contaminated materials, and restore your home or business to pre-loss condition.
Our fire damage restoration in Pomona begins within hours of your call. Once firefighters clear the scene, our crew inspects framing, joists, roofing layers, and load-bearing walls for structural compromise. We document smoke migration patterns, soot deposition levels, and water intrusion from fire suppression efforts. This detailed assessment generates an accurate scope for your insurance claim and establishes a clear recovery timeline.
We address all three damage types that follow a fire: charred structural materials, smoke residue penetration, and moisture from firefighting. Our team removes debris, extracts soot-stained drywall, and pumps out standing water. We prepare the property for decontamination by clearing hazardous ash, burned insulation, and compromised electrical wiring. This thorough approach prevents secondary damage and accelerates the restoration schedule.
Smoke particles embed in porous surfaces, HVAC ducting, and structural voids where standard cleaning cannot reach. We deploy HEPA vacuums, air scrubbers, and negative-air machines to capture airborne particulates. Thermal fogging and hydroxyl generators neutralize odor molecules trapped in walls, fabrics, and ceiling assemblies. Our deodorization methods restore safe indoor air quality throughout your Pomona property.
Fire affects everything inside your property: furniture, textiles, appliances, and personal belongings. We inventory each item, separate salvageable contents from destroyed materials, and transport recoverable possessions to our cleaning facility.

Burned walls, scorched flooring, charred ceiling assemblies, or pooling water from firefighting efforts indicate immediate need for professional fire damage restoration. Even small kitchen fires leave residue that spreads through HVAC systems to contaminate unburned areas. Visible damage signals deeper structural and air quality problems requiring expert assessment.
Smoke penetrates drywall, insulation, ductwork, and soft furnishings during a fire. If persistent smoky scent remains days after the incident, particles have embedded in porous materials where surface cleaning cannot reach. Professional thermal fogging, hydroxyl treatment, and HVAC cleaning permanently eliminate smoke odor and restore healthy indoor air.
Black or oily soot deposits on walls, ceilings, fixtures, and inside air vents indicate contamination requiring professional fire damage cleanup. Soot contains acids that corrode metal components and permanently stain surfaces when left untreated. Without thorough HEPA vacuuming and degreasing, residue continues damaging materials and poses respiratory health risks.
Water used to extinguish flames soaks into subfloors, wall cavities, and ceiling assemblies where it cannot dry naturally. This hidden moisture promotes mold growth within 48 hours and compromises structural materials over time. Professional extraction, dehumidification, and cavity drying protect your property from secondary water damage.
Fire weakens framing members, joists, load-bearing walls, and roofing components. Sagging ceilings, warped beams, buckling floors, or visible charring on structural elements demand professional evaluation. Our inspectors assess structural integrity using thermal imaging and moisture meters to identify all compromised materials before reconstruction begins.
We respond to fire damage calls 24/7 throughout Pomona and the San Gabriel Valley.
