Fire, smoke and soot services in Katy

Black ceilings down the hall, smoke from a garage fire in the attic or burned debris to clear: start with what you found after a fire in Katy.

Our Process

How we handle fire damage restoration in Katy

1We board up and tarp the building

If the fire broke windows or burned through the roof, we board up the openings and tarp the roof. Heavy rain has flooded Katy streets before, in 2016 and again during Harvey in 2017, and an open roof lets the next storm into rooms the fire spared.

2We clean the smoke and soot

Smoke travels through return vents and the attic, so soot can settle in bedrooms far from where the fire started. We clean the soot, remove the smoke odor and clean the structure in each room the smoke reached.

3We pack out your belongings and handle the rebuild

We pack out your belongings, clean them, keep them in storage during the work and bring them back when it ends. Fire debris removal takes out what burned, and the rebuild follows once the structure is clean.

Why Us

Why Katy homeowners hire us for fire damage restoration

We answer the phone 24/7

Call about a fire in Katy at any hour, and a person picks up. We work across the city, from the old town around City Hall on Avenue C to the newer streets near Katy Mills.

We give you a free estimate and an itemized scope

The estimate costs nothing and carries no obligation. We document the loss with photos, moisture readings and an itemized scope, so the record shows the burned rooms, the smoke-stained ones and the rooms the fire hoses soaked.

We work with all insurance companies

Most Katy homes are detached houses lived in by their owners, so the house and what is inside it often sit on one homeowner policy. We talk with your insurance company, share the record from our walk through the house and explain ACV, RCV and depreciation in plain English.

“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”

FAQs

Common questions about fire damage in Katy

Plain answers about the work, the estimate and your insurance.

When can my family go back into our Katy house after a fire?

Go back in only after the fire department clears the building. Inside the city limits, the fire service is the Katy Fire Department, a City department. Soot and smoke odor linger in a closed house, so anyone with asthma may want to stay elsewhere until the cleanup ends, and a doctor can advise.

Does my policy cover smoke damage in rooms the fire never reached?

That depends on your policy. We record the soot and odor room by room in photos and an itemized scope, so the smoke-damaged rooms are on the record next to the burned ones. Your insurance company decides what your policy covers.

The fire hoses left water on my floors. Do you handle that as well?

Yes, the hose water is part of the same loss. We take out the water and dry the structure, and moisture readings tell us when it is dry.

Will you talk with my insurance company about the fire in Katy?

Yes. We work with all insurance companies, and we send yours the photos, moisture readings and itemized scope from our first visit.

Do I have to hire you after the free estimate?

No, the estimate is free and carries no obligation. You get an itemized scope of the damage, and what you do with it is your call.

A garage fire in our Katy home sent smoke into the attic. What happens to the insulation?

Soot and smoke odor can settle in attic insulation, and the smell can work back into the rooms below. We check the attic and record what we find, and insulation that holds soot or odor may come out with fire debris removal. We handle the rebuild of what came out once the structure is clean.

Fireworks are banned in Katy. Can a fireworks fire still reach our house?

Local law prohibits fireworks inside the Katy city limits, but a spark from nearby can still land on a roof or in a garage. If one starts a fire, we board up and tarp what it opened, then clean the soot and remove the smoke odor. We record the damage room by room for your insurance company.
