A structure fire changes a Des Peres property in minutes, but the cleanup clock is even less forgiving. Our local crews are equipped to start stabilizing the site the same day you call.
Call +1-866-484-1409We opened in the Des Peres area because too many homeowners were getting a two-week wait for a "24/7" restoration company. Our trucks stage locally so that promise actually means something.

If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.

Cabinetry and flooring can swell within 24 hours once firefighting water sits without proper extraction.
Untreated smoke residue starts pitting metal surfaces surprisingly fast — often inside 48 hours.
Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.
Des Peres, MO insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.

A freezer fire in our garage started around 2am, and the crew had the side door boarded up before the fire department even wrapped up their report. — Homeowner, Des Peres
