Call +1-866-484-1409Every technician on our Cotulla roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.

An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.
Streaking near air returns means soot circulated through the whole HVAC system, not just the room that burned.
Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.

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