Call True Builders Immediately – We dispatch 24/7 response teams for emergency board-up and safety assessments.
Don’t Touch Anything – Fire residue is toxic and can spread damage. Leave cleanup to certified professionals.

Schedule a Full Damage Assessment – Our team will evaluate structural, smoke, and water damage to create a full restoration plan.
Still Dealing with the Aftermath? We Handle More Than Just Fire
Did the fire start on the roof or near your attic?
That might mean roofing repair or replacement is necessary. We partner with True Roofers for full structural roof inspections and emergency tarping after fires.
Are you smelling mildew or seeing discoloration after the fire?
Fire suppression often leads to hidden moisture, which can trigger mold growth. Our certified team at True Builders provides professional mold remediation to protect your family’s health.
Did your AC system or pipes get damaged in the fire?
Melted plumbing lines, HVAC duct damage, or flooding from extinguishers are common. True Plumbers & AC can inspect and repair your home’s internal systems quickly.
Was the fire caused by a storm or lightning strike?
Fires often follow storm damage. If your home was hit by wind, hail, or lightning, we also provide storm damage restoration services and can coordinate with your insurance for bundled claims.

🔍 What Does Fire Damage Really Involve?
Fire damage isn’t just about what burns—it’s also about what’s left behind. The flames may be gone, but the damage they leave behind can continue to spread through:
Smoke and soot, which penetrate walls, ceilings, furniture, and HVAC systems
Water damage, caused by fire suppression efforts or burst pipes
Structural compromise, where heat weakens the frame or foundation
Toxic residue, which can linger in insulation, fabrics, and air ducts
Lingering odor, which regular cleaning won’t remove
That’s why it’s critical to bring in certified professionals who understand every layer of post-fire recovery.

🧾 What Most Homeowners Don’t Know About Fire Restoration
Your Insurance Adjuster Isn’t Always on Your Side
- Many homeowners don’t realize that insurance companies aim to minimize payouts. We act as your advocate, documenting damages, negotiating for full coverage, and handling paperwork so you don’t get shortchanged.
Restoration Often Requires Permits and Inspections
- We pull all necessary permits and schedule inspections as required by Florida building codes—especially if structural framing, electrical panels, or HVAC systems need replacement.
The Timeline Isn’t Just Cleanup—It’s Rebuild
- A full fire restoration may include demolition, mold clearance, re-framing, drywall, flooring, paint, cabinetry, and more. That’s why choosing a licensed general contractor like True Builders is critical—we handle everything in one flow.
Emotional Recovery Is Part of the Process
- We understand that a house fire is traumatic. Our team is trained not only to rebuild homes, but to care for people. We take every step with empathy, transparency, and urgency—treating your loss like it’s our own.
🧠 Don’t Wait—Delays Make Things Worse
The longer fire and water damage sit untreated, the worse it gets:
Mold growth can begin within 24–48 hours
Smoke residue hardens and permanently stains surfaces
Hidden structural damage may lead to collapse or code violations
Insurance claims may be denied if damage worsens due to neglect
We respond immediately to protect your home, save your possessions, and reduce long-term repair costs.
