How we handle fire damage restoration in Austin
1We board up and tarp the building
Call us, and if the fire opened a window, a wall or the roof, we board up and tarp the building. An opening left to the next storm adds water to the smoke damage.
2We walk every room for a free estimate
We walk every room with you for a free estimate and write an itemized scope. Water from the fire hoses can soak a floor long after the smoke clears, so we take moisture readings as we go.
3We clean the soot and the smell
We handle soot cleanup, smoke odor removal and deodorization, and we talk with your insurance company as the work goes on. Homes in Austin's wildland-urban interface zones can also get wildfire smoke from a grass or juniper fire nearby, and we clean that residue the same way.

Why Austin homeowners hire us for fire damage restoration
We are on site in under an hour
We answer the phone 24/7, and we're on site in under an hour, from Crestview, Windsor Park and North Loop to Travis Heights. A building closed up against the weather has less damage to clean later.
We give you a free estimate with no obligation
The estimate is free, with no obligation. If your Hyde Park or Crestview house sits on pier-and-beam, smoke can reach the crawl space, and we record that part of the loss too, with photos, moisture readings and an itemized scope.
We work with all insurance companies
We talk with your insurance company and share the record we made. We explain ACV, RCV and depreciation in plain English, because the age of what burned matters, from a newer Mueller kitchen to a 1950s Crestview ranch.

“We suffered a small fire in our house alittle over a week ago, Watchtower came to the house and talked to us about repair. The person that came out Michael Sullivan ( Sully) was not pressuring us and explained every step. What really sold me was that Sully kept in contact with us and didn't pressure us into signing an agreement. Josh was more than helpful and also made the ordeal bearable. Sully is truly an asset to the company. Since this a work in progress there will be more to follow at a later time”

Questions about fire damage restoration in Austin
Plain answers about the work, the estimate and your insurance.
Is it safe to stay in my Austin home after a fire?
Wait until the fire department says the building is safe to enter. Smoke and soot can linger on surfaces and in the air, so anyone with asthma or trouble breathing may be better off somewhere else until the soot cleanup is done.
Can you board up my Austin house tonight?
Yes. Our phone is answered 24/7, and if the fire opened a window, a door or the roof, we board up and tarp the building to keep the weather out.
If you walk my Austin home for an estimate, does that commit me to anything?
No. The estimate is free, with no obligation, and it is not an insurance claim. We walk the house with you, write an itemized scope, and you decide what to do next.
Will you talk with my insurance company about an Austin fire claim?
Yes. We talk with your insurance company, whichever one insures your home, and share our photos, moisture readings and itemized scope. We answer your questions about the paperwork in English or Spanish, and your insurance company decides what your policy covers.
What happens to my belongings and the rebuild after a house fire in Austin?
We pack out your belongings, clean and store them during the work, then bring them back. Fire debris removal and structure cleaning come first, and then we handle the rebuild.
Wildfire smoke drifted into our Austin home. Do you clean that?
Yes. Smoke from a grass or juniper fire can get in through vents, windows and gaps, and soot settles on the surfaces inside. Austin's wildland-urban interface code, in effect since 2021, calls for ember-resistant mesh over vents on homes in its designated zones. We handle soot cleanup and smoke odor removal in every room the smoke reached.
What should I do first after a kitchen fire in my Austin home?
Wait until the fire department clears the house, and leave the soot alone, because wiping it can smear it deeper into paint and fabric. Take photos of each room for your insurance company. Then call us, and we record the loss with photos and an itemized scope before the cleanup starts.
