Kitchen damage we restore in Aurora
Something went wrong in the kitchen and you need it handled properly, not just wiped up. Our Aurora crew dries water damage with measured readings, removes mold under containment and cleans soot and smoke odor, then rebuilds what had to come out.
Musty smell in the kitchen
If you smell mustiness but see nothing, check the usual spots: under the sink, behind the dishwasher and fridge. We do that systematically.
Kitchen Mold Remediation →Stovetop grease fire
A pan fire can char the cabinets and hood above the range and coat the room in greasy soot. We replace what burned and clean the rest.
Kitchen Fire & Smoke Restoration →Burned cabinets or range hood
We replace what burned and keep what can be cleaned.
Kitchen Fire & Smoke Restoration →Smoke odor after a fire
Smoke smell stays in drywall, cabinet interiors and duct runs. We remove the residue, then treat the odor and seal surfaces.
Kitchen Fire & Smoke Restoration →Dishwasher or sink leak
Water from a dishwasher or sink line spreads under the base cabinets and into the subfloor. We extract it, open the toe kicks and dry the structure with equipment and meter readings.
Kitchen Water Damage Restoration →Mold under the sink
The sink base is where kitchen mold shows up most. We stop the moisture and remove the growth.
Kitchen Mold Remediation →Burst supply or fridge line
A failed supply hose or ice maker line can soak a kitchen fast or slowly over months. We fix the line, pull out the water and dry the floor, walls and cabinets.
