We work across Fort Worth every week, from Fairmount bungalows to the slab-on-grade tracts north of Loop 820. Our crews know the difference between a pier-and-beam house built in 1925 and a brick veneer ranch from 1972, and that matters when you’re mapping smoke travel or checking what the fire did to the structure underneath.
Why Keegan Restoration Fort Worth Is Fort Worth’s Preferred Fire Damage Restoration Company
Keegan Water Damage Restoration has been part of the Garrison Partners family since 2005. We run every fire, water, and mold job to The Garrison Standard: written price before work starts, background-checked uniformed technicians, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every repair, in writing. That guarantee isn’t marketing language. If the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge. No re-billing, no argument.
Fort Worth homeowners tell us the same story repeatedly. Another contractor showed up late, moved the price at the door, or sent a crew that left the site worse than they found it. We don’t operate that way. The price you approve is the price on the invoice. The technicians who arrive are the ones who explain the scope, and they document every step with photos formatted to support your insurance claim.
Shane Pruitt leads our Fort Worth operations. He holds every technician to the same standard on every job: show up inside the window, put the price in writing, do it by the book, leave the site clean, and stand behind the work for a full year. That discipline shows up in how we handle a Fort Worth fire loss, from the first board-up to the final coat of paint.
Restoration work we handle
Fire Damage Restoration Company in Fort Worth
Fire Damage Restoration Company work in Fort Worth starts the moment the fire department clears the scene. We secure the property, remove water left by suppression efforts, and begin structural drying before smoke and soot have time to embed permanently into drywall, framing, and contents. A standard room-and-contents fire in a Fort Worth home runs $3,500 to $7,000. Larger losses involving kitchen fires with water damage from firefighting typically run $8,000 to $15,000, depending on cabinet replacement, flooring, and the extent of smoke travel through the HVAC system.
We’re a full Fire Damage Restoration contractor. That means we handle cleanup, demolition, drying, reconstruction, and the insurance paperwork. You don’t juggle three vendors. One crew stays on the job until the house is back to pre-loss condition and the guaranteed work is signed off.
Initial Board-Up and Structural Stabilization
In Fort Worth, fire-damaged homes get boarded quickly because spring storms roll through without much warning. An exposed roof opening or missing window becomes a water intrusion point within hours. We board and tarp the same day we’re called, then document the condition before any demolition starts so your adjuster sees exactly what we saw.
Content Cleaning and Pack-Out
Smoke damage reaches rooms the fire never touched. We inventory, pack, and clean contents off-site, then store them until reconstruction is complete. Every item gets photographed and logged. If you file an insurance claim, that documentation goes directly to your adjuster.
Smoke Damage Restoration in Fort Worth
Smoke Damage Restoration in Fort Worth is often the longest part of a fire recovery. Smoke doesn’t stay in the fire room. It travels through wall cavities, chases, and ductwork, leaving behind odor and residue that standard cleaning won’t remove. Smoke damage restoration for a single-room fire in Fort Worth runs $2,500 to $6,000. Whole-home smoke cleanup, including HVAC cleaning, dry-cleaning of soft goods, and ozone or hydroxyl treatment, runs $6,000 to $12,000.
Our crews use professional-grade air movers and deodorization equipment from XPOWER and B-Air, plus desiccant drying in tight spaces. We don’t mask odor. We remove the source, then treat surfaces and air spaces until a third-party sniff test passes.
Thermal Fogging and Ozone Treatment
For deep-set smoke odor in Fort Worth homes, we run thermal fogging in sealed rooms. It penetrates paint, wood grain, and fabric the way smoke did. Ozone treatment follows on unoccupied spaces, and we clear the house before you return.
HVAC and Duct Cleaning After Fire
If smoke entered the return air, it’s now in the ducts. We inspect and clean the full system, replace filters, and document everything. Ignoring the HVAC means the odor comes back the first time the AC kicks on in a Fort Worth summer.
Trusted Brands We Service in Fort Worth
We run equipment from XPOWER, B-Air, and Injectidry on Fort Worth fire jobs, and we keep common replacement parts and filters stocked locally for fast turnaround. Our drying and extraction setup meets IICRC performance standards, which your insurance adjuster will recognize. When you call with a fire loss in Fort Worth, we don’t wait on parts to ship from Dallas or Houston. The gear we need is already here, and the technicians who run it train on these systems year-round.

AfterCommon Fire Damage Restoration Problems We See in Fort Worth Homes
- Slab cracks hidden behind fire-damaged walls. Fort Worth’s expansive clay soil moves with every drought and rain cycle. A fire in a slab-on-grade home often covers a crack that was already there, and if you patch the drywall without checking the slab, moisture comes right back.
- Failed cast-iron plumbing under 1960s and 70s tracts. The east side of Fort Worth has thousands of homes with original cast-iron waste lines. Fire suppression water combined with a cracked line sends sewage-contaminated water under the slab. Standard drying protocols won’t catch it. We do.
- Smoke odor trapped in brick veneer wall cavities. Fort Worth’s dominant housing stock is slab-on-grade brick veneer. Smoke travels behind the brick and into the stud bay, and if you don’t open those cavities, the odor stays for years.
- Drought-related foundation movement after the fire. Summer in Fort Worth shrinks clay soil and opens new gaps around a fire-damaged slab. A technician who skips a post-mitigation foundation check leaves the home vulnerable to the next storm’s water intrusion.

FAQs About Fire Damage Restoration in Fort Worth
Fort Worth’s expansive clay soil moves with every drought and rain cycle, and that movement cracks slab foundations and the cast-iron plumbing beneath them. Fire damage restoration here has to include a slab and waste-line check before drying, because moisture and contaminants travel under the slab in ways they don’t in cities with stable soils. Call (682) 900-2821 if you want a crew that checks the slab before they hang drywall.
Get a restoration contractor who checks the waste lines before structural drying starts. On Fort Worth’s east side, original cast-iron pipes fail under shifting clay, and fire suppression water pushes sewage-tainted moisture through those cracks and under the slab. We inspect, document, and coordinate with local tunneling crews who handle the permits. Skipping that step leaves contaminated moisture trapped under your floors.
Patching the visible fire damage without checking the slab and plumbing underneath it. On Fort Worth’s clay-slab tract homes, the fire is often the second problem. The first is foundation movement that was already letting moisture in. A contractor who doesn’t moisture-map the slab will hand you a clean-looking house that smells like sewage in six months. We check the slab on every fire job, no exceptions.
Our crews can typically be on site within 2 to 4 hours of your call anywhere in Fort Worth, assuming roads are passable. We start with board-up, then run extraction and set containment. Slab drying on a Fort Worth fire job takes a bit longer than a pier-and-beam house because we’re pulling moisture out of a concrete mass, not a crawlspace, but starting fast is what keeps mold from establishing.
Yes. When a Fort Worth fire job reveals a cracked waste line or a failed cast-iron section under the slab, we coordinate directly with local tunneling crews who know the city’s permit process and east side soil conditions. You don’t chase down subcontractors or file paperwork. We bring the team, we document the scope, and the written estimate includes the plumbing repair before any work starts.
If your home in Fort Worth has fire or smoke damage, call (682) 900-2821. We’ll send a crew, put the scope in writing, and walk you through what happens next. No pressure. Just straight answers from people who work in Fort Worth every week.
