Fire Damage Cleanup in Frisco, TX
When the fire trucks pull away, what is left is a room full of wet, black wreckage: fallen ceiling drywall, soaked carpet, melted blinds and ash on every surface. Call Unify Fire Solutions and a dispatcher puts you in touch with an independent, licensed and insured cleanup crew in Frisco that bags the debris, tears out what cannot be saved and leaves the room a clean, documented shell ready for rebuild.

- The line is free and staffed around the clock
Why Homeowners Call Us for Fire Damage Cleanup
A burned room is not a weekend project with a shop vac. Wet ash burns skin, waterlogged drywall weighs a ton, and every bag that leaves the house is part of your insurance file. Here is what you get when you dial our line.
Licensed & Insured Independent Pros
The contractors in our network are independent, licensed and insured local businesses, not guys with a pickup and a flyer. Before anyone swings a flat bar, ask for proof of license and a certificate of insurance, and ask whether they follow IICRC S700 guidance for fire and smoke work.
A Written Estimate Before Tear-Out
No one should be pulling cabinets off your wall on a verbal number. The contractor walks the loss, measures square feet of drywall and carpet, counts linear feet of base cabinet and estimates dumpster loads. Ask for a written, line-item estimate before any work starts, then forward it to your adjuster.
Rapid Local Dispatch
Someone picks up at any hour, and the dispatch process begins during that first call. We reach for crews working near Frisco first. Arrival depends on crew availability and distance, and it is often the same day.
The Right Gear for a Burned Room
A burned room calls for real protective and containment equipment. Expect half-face or full-face respirators with P100 cartridges, Tyvek coveralls, nitrile gloves, HEPA vacuums, negative air machines, 6-mil poly sheeting with zipper doors, flat bars, and heavy contractor bags rated for nails and broken glass.
Do not start shoveling before the fire marshal releases the property and the power company confirms the service is safe. Wet ash is alkaline enough to irritate skin and eyes, so keep kids and pets out of the burned rooms.
Dedicated Fire Damage Cleanup Solutions
The goal is simple: get the ruined material out, keep everything that can be cleaned, and hand you back a room that smells like nothing. These are the jobs the independent crews in our network handle most.
Labor and dump fees drive most of the bill, which is why a careful sort at the start can save a lot on the claim. Cabinet doors that only needed a wash should not be the first thing thrown on the pile. Ask the contractor to walk you through what stays and what goes before the first bag is filled.
Debris and Ash Removal
Crews shovel and bag the wet ash, collapsed ceiling, burned furniture and charred trim, then carry it out on a protected path.
- Roll-off dumpster sized to the job (10, 20 or 30 yard)
- Plywood under the dumpster to protect the driveway
- Floor runners from the burned room to the door
Selective Demolition
Charred and soaked drywall gets cut back to a clean line, typically at the nearest stud or seam. Insulation, carpet and pad, vinyl plank and ruined base cabinets come out with it.
- Cut lines measured and photographed
- Electrical left untouched for the electrician
- Fasteners pulled so the framing is ready to inspect
Salvage Sorting and Photo Records
Every item is sorted into keep and toss piles and photographed before it leaves the house. Ask for room-wide photos, close-ups with a tape for scale, and an itemized list that lines up with the pictures.
- Carpet and pad samples held until the adjuster signs off
- Brand and model labels photographed on appliances
- Disposal receipts kept for the file
Poly Walls, HEPA Vacuuming and Wipe-Down
The work area is sealed with 6-mil poly and a zipper door, and a negative air machine pulls ash away from the rooms you still use. Dry ash comes off with a HEPA vacuum before anything gets wet, then a chemical sponge and a damp wipe, always working from ceiling down to floor.
Kitchen Grease Fire Cleanup
A grease fire leaves a sticky, brown film that smears if you touch it, plus a charred range hood and the upper cabinets right above the stove. The contractor removes charred upper cabinets, ruined appliances and spoiled food, then degreases every surface that is staying.
- Hood and duct checked for grease buildup
- Pantry and fridge contents photographed and bagged
Garage Fire Cleanup
Garage fires are their own animal: gas cans, paint, pool chlorine, pesticides, a burned vehicle and a wall of melted tools. Hazardous containers are pulled aside for proper disposal, and any vehicle stays put until the auto adjuster has seen it.
- Tools photographed for the contents claim
- Slab swept and HEPA vacuumed when cleared

The Crew Arrives Ready to Work
The independent contractor pulls up with a trailer or box truck, PPE, poly and a HEPA vacuum. First they walk through with you, flag hazards like loose ceiling board or burned subfloor, and seal off the work area.

Assessment and Written Quote
They check how high the hose water wicked with a moisture meter and read the char line to set the cut height. Before work starts, you receive a written, line-item estimate for tear-out, disposal, dumpsters and wipe-down.

Work Done and Final Walkthrough
Once the room is stripped to clean studs and subfloor, the crew lead walks it with you. Ask for the before and after photos, the item list and disposal receipts for your adjuster.
What Frisco Callers Told Us Afterward
We follow up after every dispatch, and these are a few of the notes we got back.
The pan caught, the hood went up, and by the time it was out the uppers were black and the whole kitchen was sticky. The crew pulled the uppers, bagged the pantry and degreased everything else. The lower cabinets were saved, which my adjuster was glad to see.
A tenant's bedroom fire left me with a unit I could not even walk into. The crew photographed every piece of furniture before it went out and gave me a list my insurer accepted without a single question. Three days later it was bare studs and a clean slab.
Our garage fire melted my husband's entire tool wall and left paint cans and pool chlorine everywhere. The crew set the chemicals aside for hazardous disposal instead of tossing them, and they left the car alone until the auto adjuster came.
The living room carpet was soaked from the hoses and the whole house smelled like a campfire. They sealed the room off with plastic, ran an air machine and pulled the carpet and pad the same afternoon. The written estimate matched the final bill.
Fire Damage Cleanup Questions We Hear Every Week
Should I throw out burned things before the adjuster sees them?
No. Photograph everything first and keep it until the adjuster says it can go. If something is a safety hazard or spoiling, like food or wet mattresses, photograph it with a tape measure in the shot and note the brand, then let the crew remove it. A small square of carpet and pad saved in a bag proves the grade you had.
How big a dumpster does a fire cleanup usually need?
A single burned bedroom often fits in a 10 or 20 yard roll-off, while a kitchen fire with cabinets, appliances and wet drywall usually needs a 20 or 30 yard. Soaked drywall and plaster add weight fast, and most dumpsters carry a tonnage cap. Make sure the estimate spells out the container size and the number of hauls.
Why do crews cut the drywall higher than the burn marks?
The visible char is only part of the damage. Hose water wicks up drywall well above the waterline, and smoke works into the paper face and the cavity behind it. Crews check with a moisture meter and cut to a clean line at a stud or seam so the patch is easy to hang later.
Is it safe to stay in the house while the tear-out is happening?
It depends on how much of the house burned and whether the power and HVAC are safe to run. With poly containment, a zipper door and a negative air machine, many families stay in the unaffected rooms during a single-room job. Keep the HVAC off until the ducts have been checked, and ask the crew lead before you decide.
What happens to paint cans and chemicals after a garage fire?
They should never go in the roll-off. Fire-stressed fuel, paint, solvent, chlorine and pesticide containers can leak or react, so the crew isolates them for a hazardous waste drop-off or licensed hauler. Ask the contractor to explain their disposal plan up front.
Will my insurance pay for debris removal and tear-out?
Many policies cover debris removal under dwelling coverage, though each policy sets its own limits, so check with your agent. The thing that moves a claim along is good paperwork: photos, an itemized list, measurements and a line-item estimate. You decide what to sign and how the claim is handled.
