We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every Postville scope of work in writing before demolition starts — including what's included, what's excluded, and the expected timeline.

Don't Wait On These

What Gets Worse By The Hour After A Postville Fire

Smoke Odor That Won't Fade

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

Soot Around Vents

Streaking near air returns means soot circulated through the whole HVAC system, not just the room that burned.

Swelling Floors Or Cabinets

Cabinetry and flooring can swell within 24 hours once firefighting water sits without proper extraction.

Pitting On Metal Hardware

Soot residue is acidic enough to corrode faucets, hinges, and electronics within about two days if left untreated.

Ongoing Respiratory Irritation

Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.

A Claim Filing Deadline

Waiting too long to document damage is one of the more common reasons Postville, IA fire claims get partially denied.

None of these six signs get better with time. The Postville properties that come through a fire loss with the least long-term damage are almost always the ones where someone called within the first few hours, not the first few days.

Core Services

Everything Fire Damage Removal Should Include, Handled In-House For Postville

Emergency Mitigation

Same-day securing of the structure — board-up, tarping, water removal — before the damage compounds.

Residential Soot & Smoke Cleanup

HEPA vacuuming and dry-chemical sponging matched to the specific surfaces found in Postville homes.

Commercial Restoration

Phased scopes that let Postville businesses reopen unaffected sections while the rest of the rebuild continues.

Structural Rebuild

Framing, drywall, and finish carpentry brought back to pre-loss condition and signed off by local Postville inspectors.

Odor Elimination

We treat smoke odor as a chemical problem, not a scent problem — hydroxyl and ozone equipment gets used accordingly.

Contents & Pack-Out

We photograph and log every item before pack-out, then clean or store it depending on what's actually salvageable.

One-Year Workmanship

Reconstruction work is covered against defects for a full year after completion.
