From the moment you call, our team treats your fire-damaged residence as a priority.

  • Local staff serving Minneapolis and nearby areas
  • Water cleanup from firefighting efforts
  • Trained, fully-insured restoration specialists

Signs you need structural repair and rebuild

When fire and water reach the bones of the house, cleanup isn't enough. These are signs the structure itself needs rebuilding.

  • Charred or weakened framing

    Burned studs, joists, or roof members lose strength and need to be evaluated and replaced by qualified crews.

  • Missing walls, roof, or flooring

    Sections lost to the fire or removed during cleanup have to be rebuilt to make the home whole and safe again.

  • Heat-warped or blistered materials

    Warped framing, melted fixtures, and blistered finishes point to heat damage that reaches past the surface.

  • Compromised drywall and ceilings

    Drywall and ceilings damaged by fire or firefighting water often need removal and rebuilding, not patching.

  • Openings from board-up

    Windows, doors, and walls opened up or boarded after the fire need permanent repair to secure the property.

Seeing any of these in Minneapolis? Don't wait. Call (844) 810-6096 for a fast, no-pressure assessment.

What our structural repair & rebuild includes

A complete, professional process from first response to final restoration.

  • Framing & drywall repair

    Photographed and logged as we work, so your insurer sees exactly what was done.

  • Roofing & flooring rebuild

    Scheduled around your household, with a clear start time and a realistic finish date.

  • Painting & finish work

    Checked by the lead technician and walked with you before we call this part done.

  • Pre-loss reconstruction

    Carried out by trained specialists with the commercial systems this step actually needs.

How Our Process Works

No guesswork. Every Minneapolis, MN fire job moves through the same trusted stages, start to finish.

  1. Call & Secure

    Our specialists secure the affected area, inspect the soot and smoke, and explain the plan before any work begins.

  2. Remove Soot & Char

    Our staff clears the soot and smoke residue to stop the destruction from etching and staining surfaces.

  3. Neutralize the Smoke

    We seal, treat, and re-clean affected areas, then verify the odor is neutralized before moving on to rebuild.

  4. Repair & Rebuild

    The final step rebuilds everything the fire touched and returns your contents and residence to normal.

Why fast action matters

Structural Repair & Rebuild is time-sensitive. The longer you wait, the more it spreads and the more it costs.

  • It gets worse over time

    Left untreated, the problem spreads and becomes harder and costlier to resolve.

  • Secondary damage

    Delays often lead to additional damage to materials, structure, or surrounding areas.

  • Health and safety risks

    Situations like this can carry real health or safety risks until they're properly handled.

What affects the cost of the rebuild

Rebuild scope depends on how much of the structure was lost. Main factors:

  • Extent of structural damage

    How much framing, roofing, and finish must be replaced sets the size of the rebuild.

  • Finishes and materials

    Matching flooring, cabinetry, and trim to the pre-loss condition affects materials and labor.

  • Permits and scope

    Larger rebuilds involve more coordination, inspections, and trades, which shape the timeline and cost.

  • You approve the scope before any work starts, and we keep a clear record of every line item.
  • We document everything the day we reach you, with photos and a detailed loss inventory your adjuster needs.

Fire Damage in Minneapolis: What to Know

Straight answers on how fire damage restoration works, what it costs, and how insurance fits in, so you know what to expect before you call.

  • The Types of Smoke Residue

    Fires leave wet smoke, dry smoke, protein residue, or fuel-oil soot, and each one bonds to surfaces differently. Identifying the residue type is what determines the right cleaning method, because the wrong one can set a stain permanently.

  • Why Smoke Odor Lingers

    Smoke particles are small enough to penetrate drywall, insulation, and ductwork, so a room can look clean yet still smell. Surface cleaning isn't enough. Thermal fogging, ozone, and hydroxyl treatment neutralize the odor at its source.

  • Why Board-Up Can't Wait

    Open windows and a damaged roof expose your property to weather, theft, and further loss, and insurers expect you to mitigate. Emergency board-up and roof tarping in the first hours protects the structure while the cleanup is planned.

  • Soot Is Acidic, and Time Matters

    Within hours, acidic soot begins to etch glass, corrode metal and electronics, and stain walls. The sooner soot and smoke residue are removed, the more of your home and belongings can be saved.

  • One Team: Cleanup Through Rebuild

    We handle the whole recovery under one roof, covering board-up, soot and smoke cleanup, deodorization, and full structural rebuild back to pre-loss condition, so you never have to hand off to a second contractor mid-project.

What our crew handles

Our Fire Damage Services in Minneapolis

Full-service fire recovery for every kind of fire, residential and commercial, from emergency board-up and soot removal to complete rebuild.

  • Smoke Damage Cleanup

    Greasy smoke film settles onto walls and ceilings fast, and it stains the longer it sits untreated. Pre-1940 interiors across Kenwood, Longfellow, Seward, Camden, and Northeast hold that residue deep in plaster and original wood trim. Our crew clears it before it sets permanently.

    More about Smoke Damage Cleanup

  • Soot Removal

    Soot is acidic, and within hours it etches glass, stains paint, and pits metal fixtures. Minneapolis's pre-1940 housing stock still carries original glass, hardware, and painted trim that show the damage fastest. We start with dry sponging, then move to wet soot cleaning where needed.

    How our Soot Removal works

  • Fire Damage Cleanup

    Once the fire is out, the structure still holds char, ash, and leftover suppression water that has to come out first. In a hard freeze, that water and slush can refreeze before other work starts. Our crew clears debris and stabilizes the site fast.

    How our Fire Damage Cleanup works

  • Smoke Odor Removal

    Spraying air freshener over a smoke smell buys a day or two before it comes right back. We go after the source instead, using thermal fogging, ozone treatment, hydroxyl generators, and HEPA air scrubbing. A house sealed tight for a Minnesota winter holds that odor far longer than most homes.

    See Smoke Odor Removal details

  • Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out

    Everything gets inventoried, packed out, and cleaned off-site in secure storage while repairs happen at your home. Every item is itemized before it leaves the property, and nothing returns until odor treatment is fully verified done. Keepsakes and furniture get handled carefully throughout.

    See Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out details

  • Emergency Board-Up & Tarping

    Our crew boards up and tarps the roof the same day, never on a delay. An open wall or roof in subzero Minnesota weather can turn into frozen pipes and secondary water damage by morning. Securing the property fast keeps a bad situation from getting worse overnight, whatever the neighborhood.

    More about Emergency Board-Up & Tarping

  • Fire & Water Damage Restoration

    Standing water from firefighting efforts turns into a mold problem fast if it is not pulled out right away. Cold-weather suppression water reaches basements and sill plates fast in Minneapolis's older foundations. Our crew extracts water and runs structural drying first, then moves into soot and smoke cleanup.

    How our Fire & Water Damage Restoration works

  • Commercial Fire Damage Restoration

    Crew size adjusts to the size of the loss, keeping downtime as short as the job allows. North Loop warehouse conversions and storefronts along Lake Street and Nicollet Avenue get priority scheduling, insurer coordination, and after-hours work so a business can reopen sooner than waiting on one small crew.

    How our Commercial Fire Damage Restoration works

  • Puff-Back Cleaning

    A furnace puff-back can throw oily black soot across walls, ceilings, and ductwork before anyone notices smoke. Oil-fired furnaces have historically been more common in older Upper Midwest housing. We treat that residue with degreasing agents made for oily soot, not standard smoke cleaning.

    How our Puff-Back Cleaning works

  • Wildfire Smoke Remediation

    Regional wildfire smoke can reach the Twin Cities during summer air-quality events, distinct from a house fire. Homes can pick up a smoky smell and ash outside with no flame ever touching the structure. We remove the exterior residue and treat the air inside.

    See Wildfire Smoke Remediation details

  • Duct & HVAC Smoke Cleaning

    Once smoke gets pulled into forced-air ductwork, it keeps recirculating soot and odor long after the rooms themselves look clean. Minneapolis homes run mostly forced-air heating and cooling, so duct and vent cleaning paired with HEPA filtration is often the step other crews skip. We never skip it.

    How our Duct & HVAC Smoke Cleaning works

  • Chimney Fire Cleanup

    Roughly 43 percent of Minneapolis homes predate 1940, and original chimneys are common in Kenwood, Lowry Hill, Longfellow, and Northeast. Our crew handles the creosote and soot buildup around the firebox and nearby walls. Hold off using it again until a chimney professional has looked at the flue.

Can you repair the structure too?

Cleanup is only half the job; our specialists methodically renew every affected area from framing to finish work.

What should I do before you arrive?

Wait until it's safe to enter, then avoid touching sooty surfaces. Call our crew and we'll handle securing and cleaning the residence.

Should the property be secured right away?

Securing the structure comes first. Our staff arrives swiftly to board up and stabilize your residence before further destruction sets in.

How long does fire restoration take?

It depends on the destruction, but cleanup usually runs a few days and a full rebuild longer. Our team gives you a clear timeline after the assessment so there are no surprises.

Are you local to my neighborhood?

Yes, our staff works throughout Minneapolis, MN. Reach us at (844) 810-6096 and we'll confirm your locale.

Can my belongings be saved?
