Kitchen grease fire: structure, walls, and a brand new kitchen
A grease fire that took out the kitchen, scorched the structure, and pushed soot through the rest of the home. Full demo, rebuild, new flooring, new kitchen. This one was in Crooked Creek, on the Indianapolis 46228 side of town.
The situation
A grease fire that took out the kitchen, scorched the structure, and pushed soot through the rest of the home. Full demo, rebuild, new flooring, new kitchen. The call came from Crooked Creek (Indianapolis 46228).
Fire damage is rarely just the burned area. Smoke, soot, and water from suppression travel through the home, settling into materials and HVAC. The first job was making the structure safe, secure, and dry while the rest of the scope came together.
The work
From first call to final clearance, here is how the job moved.
- Emergency board up and tarping where structure was open
- Removed unsalvageable materials, cleaned soot off salvageable surfaces
- Coordinated structural rebuild work
- Verified the home was safe and sound before handoff
The result
The home returned dry, clean, and ready for the family to use again. Where rebuild was part of the scope, finishes went back better than they started.
Every job we run, the goal is the same. Get to the home fast, contain the damage, do the work right the first time, and document everything for the insurance carrier so the homeowner does not have to fight for what their policy already covers. This job is one of the reasons families in Indianapolis and across Marion County keep our number on the fridge.
