Fire damage restoration in Palm Beach Gardens typically costs between $3,200 and $11,800 for a standard kitchen or garage fire, with cleanup beginning the same day you call. That range covers soot removal, smoke odor treatment, structural drying, and the written scope you’ll approve before any work starts. If you’re standing in a smoke-damaged home in PGA National or a 1970s ranch off Military Trail, call (728) 220-0713 now. A live person answers, and we’ll have a crew at your door inside the hour.
Palm Beach Gardens homes present a specific set of fire restoration challenges. The mix of 1960s concrete block construction, Mediterranean-style villas with tile roofs, and high-rise condominiums means smoke and water travel differently from house to house. Add the HOA gate protocols, security checkpoints, and architectural review boards that govern over 30 gated communities here, and you need a restoration crew that already knows how to work in these buildings. We do.
Key Takeaways:
- Same-day emergency response to any Palm Beach Gardens address, including PGA National and other gated communities.
- Written price before work starts, never moved at the door.
- We handle HOA coordination, gate access, and exterior finish matching.
- 365-Day Done Right Promise on every repair, in writing.
- Direct insurance documentation formatted for your adjuster.

Restoration work we handle






Soot Removal in Palm Beach Gardens
Soot Removal in Palm Beach Gardens runs $2,900 to $7,400 for a typical kitchen fire, depending on how far the smoke traveled and whether it penetrated stucco wall cavities or original plaster details. Soot is acidic. Leave it on crown molding, ceiling medallions, or HVAC registers for more than 72 hours in Florida humidity, and it etches the finish permanently. In Palm Beach Gardens’ subtropical climate, that clock runs fast. We start with HEPA air scrubbers to pull airborne particulates out of the living space, then move to dry-ice blasting for delicate plaster and wood details, and chemical sponges for painted drywall. Each surface gets documented before, during, and after.
HEPA Filtration and Air Scrubbing
Smoke particles smaller than 2.5 microns hang in the air for weeks in a closed-up Palm Beach Gardens home. We run Dri-Eaz HEPA 500 air scrubbers and negative-air containment to keep soot from migrating into bedrooms and closets the fire never touched. This is standard on every soot removal job we run in Palm Beach Gardens, not an add-on.
Dry-Ice Blasting for Original Millwork
Homes in PGA National and older Palm Beach Gardens neighborhoods often have original crown molding, ceiling medallions, and tongue-and-groove wood ceilings you can’t find replacements for at any supply house in South Florida. Dry-ice blasting removes soot without water, without chemicals, and without damaging the profile of that millwork. Then we can match the original finish instead of tearing it out.
Fire Damage Restoration Company in Palm Beach Gardens
A Fire Damage Restoration Company in Palm Beach Gardens has to handle two jobs at once: the fire damage you can see and the water damage you can’t. Fire suppression water in a tile-roof villa or concrete block home can sit in wall cavities, saturate drywall, and feed mold growth within 24 to 48 hours. In Palm Beach Gardens’ humidity, that clock ticks faster than in most of the country. We extract standing water, run desiccant dehumidifiers and Injectidry drying mats, and treat framing with antimicrobial before we touch the cosmetic repairs. Full structural fire repair in Palm Beach Gardens, including board-up, water mitigation, soot removal, and reconstruction, runs $8,000 to $30,000+. Smaller content cleaning and odor jobs start around $3,000.
Board-Up and Structural Stabilization
After a fire, a broken window or charred wall exposes your home to Palm Beach Gardens weather, not to mention curious neighbors and opportunistic thieves. We board up within hours of arriving, using pre-approved contractor access to gated communities. The board-up is temporary, but it’s also the first step in your insurance claim. We photograph every panel and document the condition of the structure before and after.
Smoke Odor Removal
Smoke odor in a Palm Beach Gardens home isn’t just smell. It’s particles embedded in drywall, carpet, upholstery, and HVAC ductwork. We use thermal fogging, ozone treatment, and hydroxyl generators depending on the surface. In concrete block homes built in the 1960s and 70s, smoke hides in wall cavities where humidity keeps it active. If you skip this step, the smell comes back in June when the humidity peaks. We don’t skip it.
Trusted Brands We Service in Palm Beach Gardens
We stock and operate professional-grade equipment from Dri-Eaz, Phoenix, XPOWER, B-Air, and Injectidry, all maintained to IICRC, RIA, and IFA standards. That matters because Palm Beach Gardens homes, especially the concrete block and stucco construction common here, respond differently to drying than wood-frame houses. Our techs run moisture mapping and psychrometric readings with equipment calibrated for South Florida’s humidity. If a desiccant dehumidifier goes down mid-job, we swap it the same day. No waiting on a rental yard in West Palm Beach. No telling a homeowner in Frenchman’s Creek to wait until Monday.
Common Fire Damage Restoration Problems We See in Palm Beach Gardens Homes
- Soot trapped in stucco wall cavities: Palm Beach Gardens’ 1960s-era concrete block homes hide smoke residues that react with high humidity, causing lingering odors and secondary damage months after the fire. We open only what’s necessary, clean the cavities, and document everything for your adjuster.
- Firefighting water saturating tongue-and-groove ceilings: In tile-roof villas, water from fire suppression pools above drywall or wood ceilings. Within 48 hours in Palm Beach Gardens heat, mold starts. Our extraction and drying protocols run in parallel with soot removal, not after it.
- HOA gate and work-hour restrictions: Communities like PGA National require pre-approved vendor gates, specific contractor lanes, and restricted work hours. Unauthorized access can halt restoration mid-mitigation and trigger fines. We coordinate with your property manager before the first truck arrives.
- Custom finish matching: Older Palm Beach Gardens homes have ceiling medallions, crown moldings, and textured stucco finishes that can’t be replaced off-the-shelf. We match paints within 48 hours of board-up, as many HOA rules require, and source reclaimed or custom-fabricated millwork when needed.

FAQs About Fire Damage Restoration in Palm Beach Gardens
PGA National and most of Palm Beach Gardens’ 30+ gated communities require pre-approved vendor gate access, specific contractor lanes, and restricted work hours, and many demand exterior stucco texture and paint matching within 48 hours of board-up to avoid fines. We coordinate with your property manager before the first truck arrives, so restoration doesn’t stall at the guardhouse. Call (728) 220-0713 and we’ll start that coordination immediately.
Yes. Our techs use dry-ice blasting and careful hand-cleaning to remove soot from original millwork without altering the profile or finish. In PGA National and older Palm Beach Gardens neighborhoods, we regularly restore trim, medallions, and tongue-and-groove ceilings that would be impossible to replace off-the-shelf. When a kitchen fire in a 1980s villa in PGA National left soot throughout original crown molding and ceiling medallions, our techs set up containment before the HOA’s 72-hour repair window. We used HEPA air scrubbers and dry-ice blasting on the plaster details, then matched the custom ceiling finish without triggering an HOA violation.
Water from fire suppression in a Palm Beach Gardens concrete block home pools in wall cavities, saturates drywall, and can saturate tongue-and-groove wood ceilings within hours. The 24 to 48 hour mold clock starts before the smoke smell clears. We run extraction and desiccant drying alongside soot removal, not as a separate phase. That’s the only way to keep secondary damage from spreading through block and stucco construction.
It depends on the scope. For contained kitchen fires with no structural damage, most Palm Beach Gardens homeowners stay while we work in contained zones with negative air pressure. For fires that compromised roofing, trusses, or electrical systems, you’ll likely need temporary housing. Your adjuster and our project manager will give you a clear answer after the initial assessment, which is free.
