What to Do When the Fire Trucks Leave
When the fire department pulls away, the recovery has barely begun for most families in Millbrae, CA. Smoke residue begins staining walls and fixtures almost immediately, and the water used to fight the fire settles into drywall just as fast. Burned-through walls often leave a building open to rain, wind, and break-ins.
For this reason speed matters so much. Most insurance policies ask policyholders to protect the property once the fire is out, and quick mitigation tends to be the first line item on a fire claim.

Fire Damage Adjuster is a no-cost dispatch service, not a crew that does the work. Our dispatchers answers the phone around the clock, even on holidays, and runs through a short list of questions that matter. Are the roof or windows open? Those answers decide which kind of contractor you need first.
From there, we put you in touch with an local licensed and insured restoration contractor who is already working in the Millbrae, CA community. Those contractors can take care of water extraction, along with the repairs that follow. Callers pay us nothing for the connection.
What Real Fire Damage Restoration Includes
Fire damage is actually four separate problems: fire-damaged materials, smoke and soot residue, water left behind by the fire department, and stubborn smell. Wet smoke requires a different cleaning method, which is why trained crews test before they clean.
The crews we refer commonly work through a safety check and securing, then move on to drying the affected framing and floors, HEPA vacuuming and dry sponge soot cleaning, then real odor removal, not just air fresheners. Most can also prepare itemized written scopes for your claim.
Smart Steps to Protect Your Home and Your Claim
Until the crew arrives, stay out of the building until it has been cleared as safe. Avoid turning on the HVAC system, resist the urge to clean, and hold off on discarding belongings. Photograph everything of what you can safely reach and report the loss to your insurer.
We encourage every caller in Millbrae, CA to request a current license and a certificate of insurance, and to get an itemized written estimate before the main work starts. Because every contractor is an independent business, terms, pricing, and warranties are made directly. We are not a public adjuster, and we give honest estimates instead of guarantees. If a match is not the right fit, call us again and we can help find another option.
