Colorado runs two fire seasons that overlap. Wildland fire through the dry months in the foothills and the interface communities, and heating equipment failures through a long cold winter at altitude.

Emberline Restoration works both across the state. Altitude affects combustion, and appliances that were never adjusted for it run rich and produce more soot, which shows up as gradual staining around registers long before anything fails outright. When a puffback finally happens, the ductwork has usually been loading for a while.

Why choose us for fire damage restoration

Why Colorado Owners Call Us First

On any Colorado furnace or puffback loss we start with the duct system, not the rooms. At altitude, appliances that were never adjusted for it run rich and soot gradually for seasons, so by the time something fails the ductwork has been loading for a long time.

We also handle wildfire smoke intrusion into standing buildings, which is the loss that gets missed here because the property looks untouched from the road.

Fire Damage Restoration FAQs

Frequently asked questions about fire damage restoration

Common questions about fire and smoke damage in Colorado

Talk to a real person

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.

What can actually be saved?

More than people expect on hard goods, less than people hope on soft goods. Hard surfaces, fixtures, most electronics and many textiles are recoverable. Mattresses, upholstered furniture and carpet pad that took heavy smoke usually are not, and repeated cleaning costs more than replacement while leaving the odor.

Do you handle the insurance side?

We document it properly, which is the part that decides claims. Photographs before anything moves, residue type and affected areas by room, equipment logs, and a written scope. We bill many carriers directly. We will not tell you your claim is covered, because that depends on your policy.

Can we stay in the house during the work?

Sometimes, depending on the extent and whether containment can separate the work area from where you live. Ozone treatment rules that out entirely for the duration. Hydroxyl generators are the occupied space alternative and we use those where people are staying.

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.
