Structural Damage: What the Flames Leave Behind

Fire doesn’t just burn—it weakens and destabilizes everything it touches. From wood framing to concrete, commercial buildings suffer both visible and hidden damage.

  • Flames can warp steel framing, char wooden joists, and compromise the load-bearing integrity of walls and roofs.
  • Smoke and heat cause ā€œspallingā€ in concrete—where surfaces crack or flake off under thermal stress.
  • Roof systems are particularly vulnerable: fire can destroy insulation, melt roofing membranes, and collapse trusses.
  • After fire suppression, water-logged building materials create an environment ripe for mold and microbial growth.
  • Our team uses moisture meters and infrared imaging to detect damage inside wall cavities and above ceilings.
  • Drywall, MDF panels, and particleboard cabinetry absorb smoke and moisture quickly and must be removed to prevent collapse.
  • Rebuilding starts with structural stabilization and city permitting, ensuring all work meets Indiana commercial codes.
  • We coordinate with engineers and adjusters to streamline your recovery process from day one.

Smoke and Soot: The Hidden Contaminants

Even when flames don’t spread far, commercial smoke damage repair is often extensive. Smoke travels quickly and settles on every surface, causing corrosive damage and persistent odors.

  • Soot particles are acidic and begin damaging metal, glass, and electronics within hours.
  • Smoke circulates through HVAC systems, affecting areas far beyond the fire’s origin.
  • Different fire types produce different residues—wet smoke, dry smoke, protein smoke—each requiring a specialized cleaning method.
  • Electrostatic bonding causes soot to cling tightly to surfaces, especially near electronics and server rooms.
  • Inventory, textiles, and even paperwork can absorb smoke and become unsalvageable if not addressed quickly.
  • Our technicians use EPA-approved chemicals, dry sponges, and HEPA-filtered vacuums for safe, detailed cleaning.
  • Odor molecules embed deep into drywall, upholstery, and porous materials—prompt, professional mitigation is key.
  • We follow IICRC commercial fire standards to ensure safe and complete remediation.

Firefighting Water Damage 

Water used to suppress the fire can cause nearly as much damage as the fire itself—especially in large buildings like warehouses and schools.

  • Hundreds of gallons may be discharged by sprinklers or fire hoses, saturating walls, floors, and ceilings.
  • Water often pools in low-lying areas or seeps into insulation, leading to mold within 24–48 hours.
  • Multi-floor buildings in Goshen’s downtown core may suffer water intrusion across several levels.
  • Moisture trapped under tile, carpet, or vinyl flooring can cause warping and long-term subfloor damage.
  • We deploy commercial air movers and dehumidifiers to control humidity and speed drying.
  • Moisture mapping and daily monitoring ensure no hidden pockets are left behind.
  • We follow IICRC S500 water restoration standards throughout the process.
  • With both fire and water damage in play, having one certified contractor like ServiceMaster streamlines everything.

Retail, Office, and Industrial Facility Restoration

No two commercial buildings are the same, and each business type in Goshen has its own unique needs during fire cleanup.

  • Retail stores must recover quickly to resume customer service, often requiring odor control and inventory evaluation.
  • Office buildings often contain critical documents, electronics, and HVAC systems that must be cleaned without disruption.
  • Industrial sites and manufacturing plants in Goshen’s industrial parks may need specialized cleaning for machinery and production lines.
  • We isolate affected areas with containment zones to minimize cross-contamination and allow partial reopening.
  • Cleaning often occurs overnight or in phases to reduce business interruption.
  • Fire damage cleanup includes light demolition, debris hauling, content restoration, and structural rebuild.
  • We work with building owners, managers, and insurance adjusters to ensure transparency and efficiency.
  • As local experts in fire cleanup for businesses in Goshen, IN, we customize each plan to your structure and sector.

Odor Neutralization That Goes Beyond the Surface

It’s not enough to clean the visible soot. Fire odor lingers and can harm both employee health and customer confidence.

  • Smoke particles embed into soft surfaces like chairs, cubicle dividers, wall panels, and ceiling tiles.
  • We use thermal fogging, and ozone treatments to neutralize odor at a molecular level.
  • In deeply affected spaces, structural materials may be sealed with odor-blocking primers after cleaning.
  • HVAC system cleaning is critical—if neglected, ducts can continue to circulate smoke particles and smells.
  • Our team ensures that air quality meets OSHA and EPA standards before re-occupancy.
  • In restaurants, daycares, and health-related facilities, odor control is essential for safety and licensing.
  • We offer post-treatment air sampling to verify success.
  • Commercial smoke damage repair includes both visible and invisible threats—and we handle both.
