Soot removal, smoke-odor elimination, and full rebuild after fire damage.
A fire leaves behind far more than char. Smoke, soot, and odor travel through your entire home, and the water used to put the fire out creates a second damage problem on top of the first. DRR Memphis handles the complete recovery — from emergency board-up to soot removal, odor neutralization, and full reconstruction — as one of Memphis’s most trusted, locally owned restoration teams.
When you call, we secure the property first: emergency board-up and roof tarping to keep it safe from weather and intruders while the claim gets moving. Then we remove unsalvageable materials, extract any firefighting water, and begin the detailed work of cleaning soot and smoke residue from every surface — walls, ceilings, cabinetry, contents, and the HVAC system that quietly spread the smoke everywhere.
Smoke odor is the part homeowners underestimate. It bonds to porous materials and comes back on humid days unless it’s treated at the source. We don’t mask it — we clean the residue and use air scrubbers and thermal/hydroxyl treatment to neutralize the odor for good. Once the structure is clean and sound, our crew rebuilds, so your home looks and feels like the fire never happened.

Fire recovery has a lot of moving parts: securing the structure, cleaning contents, addressing water damage, killing odor, and reconstructing what was lost. Because DRR does all of it in-house, nothing falls through the cracks between contractors. Ken, Frankie, and our certified crew manage the entire project so you have a single point of contact from the first emergency call to the final walkthrough.
Fire claims are among the most complex an insurer handles. We document the damage thoroughly and build your estimate in Xactimate, the same platform your adjuster uses, so the scope of work is clear and defensible. We coordinate directly with your insurance company and bill them directly — advocating for a fair settlement so your home is truly restored, not just patched.
