After a fire, the smoke and water from suppression do as much damage as the flames. We handle board-up, soot removal, odor neutralization, contents cleaning, and full structural reconstruction — billed direct to your fire claim.
The hardest part of fire restoration isn't the fire — it's the layered damage from smoke and the firefighting water. Soot is acidic; left untreated it corrodes metal and stains permanently within days. Smoke odor migrates into HVAC, insulation, and behind drywall. We handle all of it, plus the structural rebuild.
Naples fire restoration work requires premium content-cleaning standards. Custom built-ins, fine art, original artwork, and high-end finish materials all need specialized handling that economy fire-restoration companies skip. Pelican Bay HOA, Port Royal Property Owners, and 5th Avenue South condo boards all have strict aesthetic restoration requirements.
Our Naples crew works across the full city — from 5th Avenue South, Naples Pier, Naples Botanical Garden, Naples Zoo, Pelican Bay, Vanderbilt Beach — and we're familiar with how fire damage restoration scope changes between Old Naples and 5th Avenue South.
Naples disaster history: Hurricane Ian (2022), Hurricane Irma (2017 — eye crossing), Hurricane Wilma (2005). Post-disaster construction quality varies — fire restoration scope often uncovers prior storm damage that was never fully addressed.
A kitchen grease fire in a Port Royal estate and a sprinkler discharge in a Pelican Bay tower are not the same job from the first walk-through. Naples homes carry finishes that don't tolerate standard cleaning chemistry — hand-painted silk wallcoverings, gilded plaster ceilings, lacquered millwork, original art on the walls, and antique rugs that can't be lifted dry without losing the weft. The protocol has to protect every one of those before the first sponge comes out, or the soot remediation costs less than the finish replacement.
Synthetic combustion in a high-rise unit produces wet, acidic smoke that bonds to anything with a porous or absorbent surface — silk, raw linen, untreated plaster, leather. Standard dry-sponge cleaning lifts the soot from drywall but ruins silk wallcoverings on contact. We pre-test every finish in an inconspicuous spot, photograph the result, and stage chemistry by surface — solvent-based for lacquer, mild alkaline for sealed plaster, dry-ice blasting for raw timber beams. Wall art goes to a climate-controlled off-site vault within four hours with a documented chain of custody. Antique rugs get rolled face-in over a tube, never folded, and tagged for the rug specialist of record — most Old Naples homes have one.
A sprinkler discharge in a Pelican Bay or Park Shore tower drops hundreds of gallons in the unit of origin and travels into the units below through the post-tension slab penetrations. Sprinkler water sitting more than 24 hours is Category 3 under IICRC standards — bacterial load, pipe-scale contaminants, dissolved metals. We open the file under both fire and water mitigation codes from hour one. Drying equipment goes in alongside soot containment with negative air, so odor-loaded particulate doesn't migrate into the unaffected units through shared mechanical penetrations.
Many Old Naples estates west of 3rd Street South have original 1940s-1960s heart-pine timber framing — Dade pine ceiling joists, exposed beams as part of the architecture. After a fire, those members can lose structural integrity through char depth even when they look intact. We don't sheetrock or skim-coat over compromised timber. A structural engineer measures residual section, signs off on member-by-member retention or replacement, and we document the replacement with sourced reclaimed pine where the original architecture requires it. Modern dimensional lumber in an Old Naples beam pocket is a finish failure, not a structural shortcut.
From dispatch we roll a board-up crew within two hours, secure the structure with finished panels (not raw OSB) on any Old Naples or 5th Avenue South elevation, document chain-of-custody on every contained item, and stand up containment before soot has time to migrate further. One project manager carries the file from emergency through reconstruction, working with the homeowner's designer of record. That is how a Naples fire claim ends with the finishes and the architecture intact.
Roof tarp, window board, and structural assessment within hours of dispatch. Stops further damage from rain and intrusion.
Water extraction, structural drying, soot cleaning, and HVAC decontamination. Contents pack-out for off-site cleaning when needed.
Thermal fogging and hydroxyl generators eliminate odor. Then full reconstruction — drywall, paint, flooring, fixtures, finishes.

Our Naples fire damage restoration crew dispatches across the full city — from Old Naples, 5th Avenue South, Port Royal, Aqualane Shores, Pelican Bay, Vanderbilt Beach, Park Shore, Pine Ridge, Royal Harbor, Coquina Sands, North Naples, Lely, East Naples, covering ZIP codes 34102, 34103, 34104, 34105, 34108, 34109, 34110, 34112, 34113, 34114, 34116, 34119, 34120. Fire damage spread patterns vary between Naples's construction types — we adapt our cleaning passes accordingly.
Naples insurance carriers we work with: Citizens Coastal, Chubb / AIG Private Client, Pure Insurance, HOA carriers for Pelican Bay / Park Shore. We bill direct on most claims and document to adjuster standards from the first call.
Same crew, same standards — we cover the surrounding cities too:
Smoke residue on silk wallcoverings and unvarnished oils in Port Royal and Aqualane Shores estates cannot be wet-cleaned. We bring in a fine-art conservator for any signed work over a documented value threshold, while our team handles textiles with dry chem sponges, HEPA vacuuming with soft brush attachments, and ionic air scrubbing to neutralize odor without solvents touching the silk. Protein fires from a kitchen event require enzymatic counteractants applied to substrates, never to the finish itself. Final ozone or hydroxyl treatment runs with art crated off-site at a climate-controlled facility.
High-rise sprinkler combo losses in Pelican Bay towers like the Cap Ferrat or St. Raphael involve three overlapping scopes: fire and smoke at the origin unit, water damage on every floor between origin and ground, and category-elevated water once the discharge mixes with carbon and PVC products of combustion. We open both claims simultaneously with the carrier — usually the association's master policy plus owner HO-6 — and split scope on the cause-of-loss boundary. Standpipe and sprinkler riser certification by a licensed fire-protection contractor is mandatory before any wall closure, per Florida Fire Prevention Code.
Heart-pine framing in pre-1950 Old Naples bungalows along 4th Avenue South burns slowly and chars in a way that preserves residual capacity — but inspection is non-destructive. We use a resistance drill (Resistograph) to measure intact cross-section behind the char layer rather than guessing from surface appearance. Temporary shoring is built with steel needle beams and adjustable shores rated for the actual residual load. Charred members that fail inspection are sistered with kiln-dried heart pine sourced from Goodwin Heart Pine to match grain density, not modern dimensional lumber, which protects historic character and resale value.
High-value carriers like Chubb Masterpiece, AIG Private Client, and PURE expect line-item personal-property inventories with photographs, original receipts where available, and replacement cost comparables for items without receipts. For a Park Shore or Royal Harbor loss we deploy a contents pack-out team that tags every item, photographs at four angles, and logs serials. Designer furniture, custom millwork, and collectibles get appraisal letters from qualified appraisers — typically ISA or ASA accredited. This documentation discipline is what separates a clean settlement from an 18-month dispute on policies that carry $1M+ contents limits.
A whole-home fire-and-smoke restoration in Coquina Sands or Royal Harbor on a 4,000–6,000 sq ft home typically runs four to seven months. Emergency mitigation, board-up, and contents pack-out close out in two weeks. Detailed scoping with the carrier and any IEP for smoke residue testing takes three to four weeks. Reconstruction — drywall, custom millwork lead time, imported stone reorder, and final paint with low-VOC formulations to clear residual odor — runs three to five months. Custom cabinetry from Naples-area fabricators like Ruffino is usually the longest pole at 14–18 weeks.
