Fire Restoration

In the unfortunate event that you experience fire damage in your home or business, call Rainbow Restoration® of Chicago North Shore at (847) 673-3473 for professional restoration service. It is important that the clean-up begins as soon as possible. Smoke residues are acidic in nature and with time they will cause surfaces to corrode or stain permanently. Smoke residues that were pressurized during the fire will permeate cracks and crevices of building materials and deposit odor-causing residues.

Rainbow Restoration of Chicago North Shore Service Professionals will work quickly to stop the damage and restore your home and contents back to pre-fire condition by using cleaning systems and equipment that will help eliminate costly replacement of restorable items.Smoke odors can be difficult to remove due to its penetration and absorption into building materials. Rainbow’s Service Professionals have the knowledge, products and equipment to permanently remove these stubborn odors.  All technicians are certified by the IICRC.
