Oregon's wildfire seasons have put smoke intrusion into standing buildings on a scale that dwarfs the houses actually lost. Those buildings are the ones that get overlooked, because nothing burned and everything smells.

Emberline Restoration handles smoke and ash intrusion across the state alongside structure and heating equipment fires. Ash is alkaline and can carry heavy metals from whatever burned upwind. It comes out with HEPA vacuuming and negative pressure, not with open windows and fans, which simply move it around.

Why choose us for fire damage restoration

Why Oregon Owners Call Us First

Oregon's biggest fire restoration category is buildings that never burned. Smoke intrusion into standing structures dwarfs the houses actually lost, and those owners are the ones who get told nothing is wrong because nothing is charred.

Ash is alkaline, may carry heavy metals, and comes out under HEPA vacuuming and negative pressure. Fans and open windows redistribute it through the building and into the ductwork.

Fire Damage Restoration FAQs

Frequently asked questions about fire damage restoration

Common questions about fire and smoke damage in Oregon

Talk to a real person

How fast do I need to start fire cleanup in Oregon?

Within days, not weeks. Soot is acidic and begins etching chrome, brass, aluminum and polished stone almost immediately. A fire that damaged two rooms can cost you fixtures throughout the building if the residue sits through a weekend. Call (888) 773-0161 and we will get someone out.

Why does my house still smell after it was cleaned?

Almost always the ductwork. If the air handler ran at any point, the system pulled smoke in and pushed it through the building, and it keeps redistributing odor every time it cycles. The rooms get cleaned and the system feeding them does not.

Is the water damage covered too?

Suppression water is generally handled as part of the same fire claim rather than as a separate water claim, though policies vary. What matters practically is that drying and soot cleanup run together, since water sitting in a soot loaded building grows mold within a couple of days.

Do you work on commercial buildings?

Yes, and we phase it so parts of the building reopen while the heavily affected zones stay under containment. Offices, retail, restaurants, warehouses and multi-unit residential. Restaurant work includes hood and grease duct systems. Call (888) 773-0161.

How long does the whole job take?

A contained single room fire with light smoke can be days. A structure fire with heavy soot, contents pack out and duct cleaning runs weeks. We give you a scope and a sequence up front rather than an open ended job, and we tell you which parts have to happen before others.
