When fire touches a Southlake home, the hours after the trucks leave matter most. Smoke works its way into millwork, grout, insulation, and the seams of custom cabinetry within minutes. Keegan Restoration Fort Worth answers live, 24/7, and our crews know Southlake’s large custom builds well enough to start containment the right way on the first visit. Call (682) 900-2821 and you’ll speak with a person who can dispatch a fire damage team to Southlake immediately.
We don’t do phone trees. We don’t send whoever happens to be free. We send uniformed, background-checked technicians who work to a written scope and a written price, both set before any work begins. In Southlake, where a 6,000-square-foot brick-and-stone custom home is common, the difference between fast, precise mitigation and a slow, vague response is the difference between a restoration and a rebuild.
Why Keegan Restoration Fort Worth Is Southlake’s Preferred Fire Damage Restoration Company
Southlake homeowners expect a certain standard, and they’ve usually dealt with contractors who didn’t meet it. That’s why Keegan runs every fire job to The Garrison Standard: price in writing before work starts, professional-grade equipment, documentation formatted for insurance, and a full-year written guarantee called the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If our repair fails within one year, we return and make it right at no charge. That’s in writing, on every job.
Shane Pruitt leads our team, and he holds every crew to the same standard: show up inside the window, price in writing, do it by the book, leave the site clean, stand behind the work for a full year. Southlake homeowners regularly tell us they called us because another company no-showed or changed the price at the door. We don’t do either.
Our crews know Southlake’s streets: the gated enclaves off Continental Boulevard, the custom builds around Southlake Town Square, the estates near Timarron and Estes Park. We understand what a fire in a home with a cathedral-ceiling great room and three HVAC zones actually takes to clean, dry, and restore. Dispatch is coordinated from our Dallas-Fort Worth office, and crews serve Southlake locally, so we can be on-site fast.
Fire Damage Restoration is the core of what we do, and for Southlake, it means matching the craftsmanship this housing stock demands. We’re not here to patch and walk. We’re here to document, restore, and guarantee.
Restoration work we handle
Fire Damage Cleanup in Southlake
Fire Damage Cleanup in Southlake is the process of removing charred building materials, sorting salvageable contents from unsalvageable ones, and stabilizing the structure so secondary damage doesn’t spread. After a kitchen fire in a Southlake custom home, for example, that often means pack-out of smoke-affected items, disposal of burned drywall and insulation, and setting containment before soot gets ground into travertine floors by foot traffic. A typical fire damage cleanup in Southlake runs $4,000 to $12,000 depending on square footage, materials affected, and how far smoke traveled through the open floor plan.
Structural Stabilization After the Fire
Before anyone starts cleaning, the structure has to be safe to work in. That means assessing load-bearing walls, checking for water damage from fire suppression, and identifying electrical hazards. In Southlake homes with complex rooflines and multiple gables, fire can compromise a valley or ridge line that isn’t obvious from the ground.
Content Inventory and Pack-Out
Southlake homes hold high-value contents: custom furniture, art, wine collections, and built-in electronics. We document everything, then pack out salvageable items for off-site cleaning or on-site restoration. Every piece is photographed, logged, and tracked so your insurance adjuster gets a clean, defensible inventory.
Smoke Odor Removal in Southlake
Smoke Odor Removal in Southlake is rarely a single-pass job. Smoke penetrates porous surfaces: drywall, carpet underlayment, the grain of custom wood doors, and especially the ductwork of the multiple HVAC systems these homes carry. In Southlake, a typical smoke odor removal project runs $2,800 to $7,500, and the real cost driver is how many HVAC zones and how much airtight construction the home has. We seal and clean every affected zone, not just the one near the fire.
Thermal Fogging and Hydroxyl Treatment
We use hydroxyl generators and thermal fogging to drive odor-neutralizing chemistry into the same deep recesses where smoke particles settled. Ozone alone won’t cut it in a Southlake custom home with smart thermostats cycling multiple zones. If the ducts aren’t treated, the smell returns the first time the AC kicks on.
HVAC and Ductwork Decontamination
Your HVAC system is a smoke distribution network during a fire. We clean coils, replace filters, and treat supply and return plenums according to IICRC standards. In a two-story Southlake home with three-zone air conditioning, this step takes time, and skipping it is the single most common reason smoke odor resurfaces weeks after a restoration.
Trusted Brands We Service in Southlake
Southlake homeowners have precise expectations about equipment and finish work. That’s why we run XPOWER air movers and B-Air filtration systems on fire jobs, and we use Injectidry for targeted drying in tight cavities where smoke-damaged framing meets exterior veneer. We don’t rent whatever the hardware store has on the shelf. Our equipment roster is professional-grade and operated to IICRC standards, which means documentation that holds up when your adjuster reviews the file. If your home has a custom wood door, a smart-home smoke system, or high-end finishes, we service and restore those systems with the same care as the structural work.

AfterCommon Fire Damage Restoration Problems We See in Southlake Homes
- Smoke in multiple HVAC zones: Southlake custom homes often run three or more separate air conditioning systems. Fire smoke enters every one of them, and if a tech only treats the zone nearest the burn, the odor returns on the next cooling cycle.
- Water damage from fire suppression: The water that puts out the fire soaks drywall, subfloor, and insulation. In Southlake’s hot, humid summers, that moisture turns to mold in 24 to 48 hours if drying doesn’t start immediately.
- Soot on travertine and natural stone: Acidic soot etches into stone surfaces fast. Southlake homes with travertine floors, marble counters, or limestone hearths need soot removed and the stone evaluated before standard cleaning chemicals make the etching permanent.
- Custom wood doors and millwork: A standard abrasive cleaning on a hand-rubbed carriage-house door leaves a dull, obvious patch. Southlake homeowners expect the restored surface to match the original finish, and that takes careful, finish-matched cleaning, not sanding.

FAQs About Fire Damage Restoration in Southlake
Mold can begin growing on wet drywall within 24 to 48 hours in Southlake’s summer heat and humidity. That means drying has to begin the same day as the fire if possible. Our crews arrive with moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras, and we map every wet area, including the ones behind wainscoting and baseboards. Call (682) 900-2821 and we’ll start that assessment immediately.
Yes. Southlake homes frequently have multiple gables, valleys, and attic spaces that hold smoke and heat differently than a simple ranch roof. We inspect and treat every attic space, not just the one over the fire room. Containment, air scrubbing, and decontamination all extend into the attic when the smoke path went upward.
We can. Travertine, custom cherry or walnut cabinetry, and hand-rubbed wood doors all respond to careful, finish-matched cleaning when the work is done promptly. We photograph, document, and track every piece, then clean off-site or on-site depending on what’s safest for the material. Our goal is to return these finishes to pre-loss condition, and we stand behind that with the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Category 1 water starts clean, like the water from a fire hose or a burst supply line. Category 2 water is contaminated, carrying chemicals, soot, or biological material from the fire itself. Fire suppression water quickly becomes Category 2 once it mixes with burned materials, which is why we treat fire-damaged water as contaminated and remove affected materials rather than just drying them in place.
Yes. Brick and stone veneer hides moisture behind the facade, and Southlake’s humid climate slows natural drying. We use Injectidry systems and moisture meters to verify that cavity walls, sill plates, and sheathing are actually dry before we close up walls. Our documentation includes every moisture reading, formatted to support your insurance claim.
