House with fire damage What is the average cost of fire damage restoration?

Oh, no! The worst thing that you could imagine happened: fire in your home or office. Something as simple as leaving the stove on too hot for too long can cause a fire. And once the flames are gone, you’re left with burned and damaged appliances, personal items and even structures.

Repairing or renewing all of this is a long, arduous labor and, of course, it costs money. Unfortunately, it’s not easy to give a typical cost for fire damage restoration, because the prices vary greatly according to the extent of the damage.

According to Home Advisor, the average cost nationwide for fire damage restoration is of $13,761, but prices can be as low as $3,157 or as high as $29,118. In Florida, the average cost would be $3,156.

Some of the factors that influence the final cost of fire damage restoration are:

  • Extent of the damage.
  • Amount of burned items, appliances and structures that need to be replaced.
  • Damage done by heat.
  • Damage done by smoke and soot.
  • Odor removal.
  • Potential repair for chemical damage (from extinguishers).
  • Potential water damage restoration (from burst pipes or firefighting efforts).

The only way to know for sure how much restoration for your property will cost is to call a restoration company like SERVPRO® of Martin County. Our professionals will ask you several questions to gauge the extent and severity of the damage and to know which types of equipment we need to repair it.

After the initial emergency contact, SERVPRO technicians will arrive to your home or office and take the necessary steps to restore the damage. Although the specifics vary according to the variables described before, fire damage restoration typically includes:

  1. Inspection and fire damage assessment
  2. Immediate board-up and roof tarp service (if needed)
  3. Water removal and drying (if water damage is present)
  4. Removal of smoke and soot from all surfaces
  5. Cleaning and repair
  6. Restoration
