  • Ozone and hydroxyl odor neutralization
  • Soot removal and smoke-odor deodorization

Signs of wildfire smoke and ash damage

Even a home the flames never touched can take on heavy smoke and ash when a wildfire burns nearby. These signs mean remediation is needed.

  • Ash and soot on exterior surfaces

    Gray or white ash coats siding, decks, windows, and outdoor furnishings after smoke drifts across the property.

  • A persistent smoky smell indoors

    The burnt, campfire-like odor lingers inside even with the windows closed and the fire long out.

  • Fine ash on interior surfaces

    Powdery residue settles on sills, counters, and floors after entering through gaps, vents, and doorways.

  • Ash pulled through the HVAC system

    Running the air handler during a fire can draw smoke particles into ducts and spread them room to room.

  • Discoloration on walls and ceilings

    Smoke residue leaves a dull haze or yellowing on painted surfaces and around vents and light fixtures.

  • Soot on soft goods and contents

    Curtains, upholstery, bedding, and stored items hold smoke particles and odor even when they look clean.

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

What wildfire smoke remediation includes

We work from the outside in, removing ash before it tracks indoors and then treating the smoke residue and odor throughout.

  • Assessment and containment

    We evaluate how far ash and smoke reached, protect clean areas, and plan the exterior and interior work.

  • Exterior ash removal

    Ash and soot are cleaned from siding, windows, decks, and outdoor surfaces so it stops migrating inside.

  • Interior cleaning and HEPA filtration

    Affected interior surfaces and contents are cleaned, and HEPA air filtration captures the fine particles the fire left in the air.

  • Deodorization

    We treat the air and materials to neutralize the smoke odor at its source rather than covering it up.

How Our Process Works

From emergency board-up to the final rebuild, here's exactly how your wildfire smoke remediation unfolds.

  1. Emergency Assessment

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

  2. Soot & Smoke Removal

    We work room by room, hauling out the debris and wiping down the acidic soot so it can't keep corroding your property.

  3. Deodorize & Treat

    Surface cleaning alone won't cut it, so we deodorize the air and materials until the smoke smell is gone for good.

  4. Restore to Pre-Loss

    Our crews meticulously repair and renew your property so you'd never know there was a fire.

Why wildfire residue should not wait

Wildfire ash is fine, acidic, and easy to breathe in, and it keeps affecting the home the longer it stays.

  • Health effects from fine particles

    Wildfire ash and smoke residue can irritate the eyes, throat, and lungs, especially for children and sensitive individuals.

  • Corrosion and staining

    Acidic ash etches glass, metal, and finishes and can stain exterior and interior surfaces if left in place.

  • Odor that sinks deeper

    Smoke odor works into porous materials over time, making it harder to remove the longer remediation is delayed.

  • Spread through the HVAC

    Ash left in the duct system recirculates every time the air handler runs, re-contaminating cleaned rooms.

What affects wildfire smoke remediation cost

The scope depends on how much ash reached the property and how deeply the smoke penetrated.

  • Exterior and interior extent

    Light exterior ash is a smaller job than smoke that settled through the interior and contents.

  • Surfaces and contents affected

    Delicate finishes, soft goods, and heavily coated areas take more careful cleaning.

  • Odor and HVAC involvement

    Deep odor and ash pulled into the duct system add filtration and deodorization steps.

Fire Damage in Boulder: 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 Boulder

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

    Smoke film lands on walls and ceilings fast, and it digs in deeper the longer it sits. University Hill's dense shared rental stock means one kitchen fire can smoke several units at once. Our crew clears it before it sets into plaster, trim, and shared hallways nearby.

    More about Smoke Damage Cleanup

  • Soot Removal

    Soot is acidic, pitting metal fixtures and eating into glass within a few untouched hours. Turn-of-the-20th-century Queen Anne and Victorian finishes in the Highland Lawn Historic District are especially vulnerable. We start with dry chemical sponges, then wet cleaning where that alone falls short.

    How our Soot Removal works

  • Fire Damage Cleanup

    Once the fire trucks leave, the structure is still holding char, ash, and the water crews used to put it out. Colorado winters mean an unheated, wet structure freezes fast, so our crew clears debris and stabilizes the site across Boulder County before that second loss can set in.

    More about Fire Damage Cleanup

  • Smoke Odor Removal

    Spraying over a smoke smell buys an hour at best, the odor always comes back. Thermal fogging, ozone treatment, hydroxyl generators, and HEPA air scrubbing go after it at the source. Regional wildfire-season smoke can settle into homes near open space with no flame touching the structure.

    More about Smoke Odor Removal

  • Structural Repair & Rebuild

    Bringing a room back to pre-loss condition means real reframing, fresh drywall, and full refinishing, not a quick patch job. A Highland Lawn or Chautauqua-area home needs period trim and texture matched, not generic patchwork, so repaired rooms actually blend with the rest of the house.

    How our Structural Repair & Rebuild works

  • Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out

    We inventory everything, pack it out, and clean it off-site in secure storage while your Boulder home is repaired. Keepsakes, furniture, and electronics get itemized before anything leaves the property, then packed back in once repairs and odor treatment are fully finished.

    More about Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out

  • Emergency Board-Up & Tarping

    Windows get boarded and the roof tarped the same afternoon we are called, not later in the week. A hole in the roof through a Front Range snow or wind event turns a fire loss into a water loss fast, near Gunbarrel or up against the foothills.

    How our Emergency Board-Up & Tarping works

  • Fire & Water Damage Restoration

    Firefighting water left in place freezes solid in a Colorado winter and grows mold once summer arrives. Our crew extracts water and structurally dries the property first, then handles soot and smoke cleanup, one team covering both stages without a second company involved.

    More about Fire & Water Damage Restoration

  • Commercial Fire Damage Restoration

    Crew size flexes with the size of the loss, which is exactly what keeps a business's downtime short. Pearl Street Mall storefronts and Twenty Ninth Street retail get after-hours scheduling and insurer coordination so a business reopens sooner than waiting on one small crew alone to finish.

    More about Commercial Fire Damage Restoration

  • Puff-Back Cleaning

    Oily black soot from a furnace puff-back spreads across walls, ceilings, and ductwork within minutes. Oil furnaces are uncommon in Boulder County, where gas and electric heat dominate, but when it happens our crew uses degreasing agents built for oily soot, not standard smoke cleaning.

    How our Puff-Back Cleaning works

  • Duct & HVAC Smoke Cleaning

    Smoke pulled into forced-air ducts keeps recirculating soot and odor long after the visible surfaces look clean. This pairs directly with regional wildfire smoke here, since ash drawn in through a running system keeps re-contaminating rooms already cleaned. We run duct cleaning paired with HEPA filtration.

    More about Duct & HVAC Smoke Cleaning

  • Chimney Fire Cleanup

    Boulder's turn-of-the-century historic homes and older west-side stock are where wood-burning fireplaces cluster, and Colorado winters mean real use. Not every home has one, but we clean creosote and soot around the firebox and nearby walls. Hold off on the next fire until someone qualified checks the flue.
