Fire Damage Cleanup in Comanche, OK
Once the engine company leaves, you are standing in a room of wet, black wreckage: sagging drywall, soggy carpet, melted fixtures and ash coating everything. Call Unify Fire Solutions and a dispatcher puts you in touch with an independent, licensed and insured cleanup crew in Comanche that bags the debris, tears out what cannot be saved and leaves the room a clean, documented shell ready for rebuild.
- Ash and debris removal, dumpsters arranged
- Selective tear-out of drywall, insulation, carpet and pad
- The line is free and staffed around the clock
Why Homeowners Call Us for Fire Damage Cleanup
A burned room is not a weekend project with a shop vac. Wet ash is caustic, the drywall is heavy and full of nails, and every bag you carry out is a piece of evidence for your claim. Here is what you get when you dial our line.
Licensed & Insured Independent Pros
The contractors in our network are independent, licensed and insured local businesses, not guys with a pickup and a flyer. Before anyone swings a flat bar, ask for proof of license and a certificate of insurance, and ask whether they follow IICRC S700 guidance for fire and smoke work.
A Written Estimate Before Tear-Out
Nobody should start ripping out cabinets on a handshake. The contractor walks the loss, measures square feet of drywall and carpet, counts linear feet of base cabinet and estimates dumpster loads. You get a written, line-item estimate before work starts, and you can send a copy straight to your adjuster.
Rapid Local Dispatch
Someone picks up at any hour, and the dispatch process begins during that first call. Our dispatchers look for crews already working close to Comanche. Arrival depends on crew availability and distance, and it is often the same day.
The Right Gear for a Burned Room
A burned room calls for real protective and containment equipment. Expect half-face or full-face respirators with P100 cartridges, Tyvek coveralls, nitrile gloves, HEPA vacuums, negative air machines, 6-mil poly sheeting with zipper doors, flat bars, and heavy contractor bags rated for nails and broken glass.
Do not start shoveling before the fire marshal releases the property and the power company confirms the service is safe. Wet ash can irritate skin, eyes and lungs, so keep children and pets well away from the burned area.
Dedicated Fire Damage Cleanup Solutions
The job comes down to this: remove what is ruined, save what can be cleaned, and leave a room that no longer reeks of smoke. These are the jobs the independent crews in our network handle most.
Labor and dump fees drive most of the bill, which is why a careful sort at the start can save a lot on the claim. A pile of cabinet doors that only needed a degreaser wash should never end up in the dumpster. Ask the contractor to walk you through what stays and what goes before the first bag is filled.
Debris and Ash Removal
Crews shovel and bag the wet ash, collapsed ceiling, burned furniture and charred trim, then carry it out on a protected path.
- Roll-off dumpster sized to the job (10, 20 or 30 yard)
- Plywood under the dumpster to protect the driveway
- Floor runners from the burned room to the door
Selective Demolition
Drywall is cut back past the char and the wet line to a clean edge, usually to the next stud or seam. Insulation, carpet and pad, vinyl plank and ruined base cabinets come out with it.
- Cut lines measured and photographed
- Electrical left untouched for the electrician
- Fasteners pulled so the framing is ready to inspect
Salvage Sorting and Photo Records
Before anything goes in the dumpster, items are split into salvageable and non-salvageable piles and photographed. Ask for wide shots of each room, close-ups with a tape measure for scale, and a written list your adjuster can match to the photos.
- Carpet and pad samples held until the adjuster signs off
- Brand and model labels photographed on appliances
- Disposal receipts kept for the file
Poly Walls, HEPA Vacuuming and Wipe-Down
The work area is sealed with 6-mil poly and a zipper door, and a negative air machine pulls ash away from the rooms you still use. Loose ash is HEPA vacuumed first, because wiping dry soot just smears it, then surfaces get a dry chemical sponge and a damp wipe, ceiling first and floor last.
Kitchen Grease Fire Cleanup
A grease fire leaves a sticky, brown film that smears if you touch it, plus a charred range hood and the upper cabinets right above the stove. Crews pull the burned uppers, haul out ruined appliances and spoiled food, and degrease what stays.
- Hood and duct checked for grease buildup
- Pantry and fridge contents photographed and bagged
Garage Fire Cleanup
Garage fires are their own animal: gas cans, paint, pool chlorine, pesticides, a burned vehicle and a wall of melted tools. Hazardous containers are pulled aside for proper disposal, and any vehicle stays put until the auto adjuster has seen it.
- Tools photographed for the contents claim
- Slab swept and HEPA vacuumed when cleared

What Comanche Callers Told Us Afterward
Our dispatchers check in after each job, and these are some of the replies.
A pan of oil flared, the hood caught, and the cabinets over the stove were charcoal before the extinguisher was empty. The contractor took out the burned uppers, bagged every can in the pantry and scrubbed the rest. They saved the lower cabinets, which made the adjuster happy.
A tenant's bedroom fire left me with a unit I could not even walk into. They photographed each item before it hit the dumpster, and the list they handed me went straight into the claim. Three days later it was bare studs and a clean slab.
The garage fire left melted tools, bulging paint cans and pool chemicals all over the floor. The crew set the chemicals aside for hazardous disposal instead of tossing them, and they left the car alone until the auto adjuster came.
Hose water had soaked the carpet and pad, and the smell was in every room. They sealed the room off with plastic, ran an air machine and pulled the carpet and pad the same afternoon. The written estimate matched the final bill.
Fire Damage Cleanup Questions We Hear Every Week
Should I throw out burned things before the adjuster sees them?
Hold off. Take photos of everything and keep the damaged items until your adjuster releases them. If an item is rotting or dangerous, such as food or a soaked mattress, shoot photos with a tape for scale, write down the brand and model, then let it go. A small square of carpet and pad saved in a bag proves the grade you had.
How big a dumpster does a fire cleanup usually need?
A single burned bedroom often fits in a 10 or 20 yard roll-off, while a kitchen fire with cabinets, appliances and wet drywall usually needs a 20 or 30 yard. Soaked drywall and plaster add weight fast, and most dumpsters carry a tonnage cap. Make sure the estimate spells out the container size and the number of hauls.
Why do crews cut the drywall higher than the burn marks?
Two reasons: water and smoke. Fire hose water climbs the gypsum above the visible stain, and smoke gets into the paper and the wall cavity. A moisture meter shows where the wet stops, and the cut is made at a stud or seam so new board goes up cleanly.
Is it safe to stay in the house while the tear-out is happening?
That comes down to how widespread the damage is and whether the electrical and HVAC have been cleared. A single-room job with proper poly walls and negative air often lets a family keep using the rest of the house. Keep the HVAC off until the ducts have been checked, and ask the crew lead before you decide.
What happens to paint cans and chemicals after a garage fire?
They should never go in the roll-off. Fire-stressed fuel, paint, solvent, chlorine and pesticide containers can leak or react, so the crew isolates them for a hazardous waste drop-off or licensed hauler. Ask how the contractor plans to handle them before work starts.
Will my insurance pay for debris removal and tear-out?
Most homeowner policies include debris removal as part of the dwelling coverage, but limits and terms vary, so read your policy or ask your agent. What helps the most is clean documentation: photos, an item list, measurements and a line-item estimate the adjuster can follow. You decide what to sign and how the claim is handled.
