Signs you need emergency board-up and tarping

After a fire, an open building is exposed to weather, animals, and intruders. These are signs to secure it right away.

  • Broken or missing windows and doors

    Openings left by the fire or firefighting need boarding up to keep the property secure until repairs begin.

  • Holes in the roof

    A burned or vented roof lets rain in on the already-damaged interior and needs tarping to keep water out.

  • Exposed, unsecured rooms

    Open walls and entryways leave the home open to intruders and further loss until they are secured.

  • Rain in the forecast

    With the structure compromised, incoming weather can turn fire damage into water damage overnight.

  • An unoccupied, damaged property

    A vacant fire-damaged building is a target for theft and vandalism, so securing it protects what remains.

Seeing any of these in Tucson? Don't wait. Call (844) 810-6096 for a fast, no-pressure assessment.

What our emergency board-up & tarping includes

A complete, professional process from first response to final restoration.

  • Window & door board-up

    Scoped and priced before the team starts, so the number you hear is the number you pay.

  • Roof tarping

    Carried out by skilled technicians with the commercial systems this step actually needs.

  • Site security

    Photographed and logged as we work, so your insurer sees exactly what was done.

  • Weather protection

    Handled by the same team from the first visit to the last, with one point of contact throughout.

How Our Process Works

Our proven process secures your property and restores it on the fastest path back to normal.

  1. Emergency Assessment

    Our technicians secure the impacted area, inspect the soot and smoke, and explain the plan before any work begins.

  2. Soot & Smoke Removal

    We remove the residue immediately, then deodorize with thermal fogging and air scrubbing.

  3. Deodorize & Treat

    Surface cleaning alone won't cut it, so we deodorize the air and materials until the smoke smell is gone for good.

  4. Restore to Pre-Loss

    From framing to the final coat of paint, our team puts your property back together and walks the finished job with you.

Why fast action matters

Emergency Board-Up & Tarping is time-sensitive. The longer you wait, the more it spreads and the more it costs.

  • It gets worse over time

    Left untreated, the problem spreads and becomes harder and costlier to resolve.

  • Secondary damage

    Delays often lead to additional damage to materials, structure, or surrounding areas.

  • Health and safety risks

    Situations like this can carry real health or safety risks until they're properly handled.

What affects the cost of board-up

Emergency securing depends on how much is exposed. Main factors:

  • Number of openings

    How many windows, doors, and wall sections need boarding sets the materials and labor.

  • Roof tarping

    The size and pitch of any roof opening affects the tarping work needed to keep water out.

  • Access and height

    Upper floors and hard-to-reach openings take more equipment and time to secure safely.

Fire Damage in Tucson: What to Know

Straight answers on how fire damage restoration works, what it costs, and how insurance fits in, so you know what to expect before you call.

  • The Types of Smoke Residue

    Fires leave wet smoke, dry smoke, protein residue, or fuel-oil soot, and each one bonds to surfaces differently. Identifying the residue type is what determines the right cleaning method, because the wrong one can set a stain permanently.

  • Why Smoke Odor Lingers

    Smoke particles are small enough to penetrate drywall, insulation, and ductwork, so a room can look clean yet still smell. Surface cleaning isn't enough. Thermal fogging, ozone, and hydroxyl treatment neutralize the odor at its source.

  • Why Board-Up Can't Wait

    Open windows and a damaged roof expose your property to weather, theft, and further loss, and insurers expect you to mitigate. Emergency board-up and roof tarping in the first hours protects the structure while the cleanup is planned.

  • Soot Is Acidic, and Time Matters

    Within hours, acidic soot begins to etch glass, corrode metal and electronics, and stain walls. The sooner soot and smoke residue are removed, the more of your home and belongings can be saved.

  • One Team: Cleanup Through Rebuild

    We handle the whole recovery under one roof, covering board-up, soot and smoke cleanup, deodorization, and full structural rebuild back to pre-loss condition, so you never have to hand off to a second contractor mid-project.

What our crew handles

Our Fire Damage Services in Tucson

Full-service fire recovery for every kind of fire, residential and commercial, from emergency board-up and soot removal to complete rebuild.

  • Smoke Damage Cleanup

    A greasy layer of smoke settles into walls and ceilings fast, hardening the longer it waits. El Presidio and Barrio Historico interiors built from adobe, brick, and lime plaster absorb residue harder than drywall. Our crew lifts it fast, then clears the air completely.

    See Smoke Damage Cleanup details
  • Soot Removal

    Soot is acidic. Left alone it etches glass and pits metal within hours, and original fixtures in the territorial-era downtown core are especially exposed. We use dry sponging first, then wet soot cleaning, with masonry-safe technique on historic adobe and brick surfaces.

    See Soot Removal details
  • Fire Damage Cleanup

    Once the fire itself is out, the structure is still full of char, ash, and the water crews used to put it out. Our crew clears debris and stabilizes the site across the wide desert grid off I-10, Speedway Boulevard, and Broadway Boulevard, so repair work can start without delay.

    How our Fire Damage Cleanup works
  • Smoke Odor Removal

    Spraying over smoke odor does not remove it, the smell returns. Our crew treats it at the source with thermal fogging, ozone treatment, hydroxyl generators, and HEPA air scrubbing. Monsoon-season wildfire smoke can settle into foothills homes with no flame damage, and needs the same treatment.

    How our Smoke Odor Removal works
  • Structural Repair & Rebuild

    Getting a room back to pre-loss condition means real reframing, drywall, and refinishing work, not a quick patch-and-paint job. A mid-century east-side tract home gets matched stucco texture and color, and historic adobe downtown gets matched detail, so repaired rooms blend with the rest of the house.

    More about Structural Repair & Rebuild
  • Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out

    Every item gets logged, packed out, and cleaned off-site in secure storage for the length of the repair. Keepsakes, furniture, and electronics get itemized before they leave, then packed back in once repairs and odor treatment are fully verified done.

    More about Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out
  • Fire & Water Damage Restoration

    Firefighting water sits in the structure afterward, and anything left wet too long starts growing mold. Our Pima County crew extracts water and runs structural drying first, then moves into soot and smoke cleanup, one team handling both stages without a second company on the job.

    How our Fire & Water Damage Restoration works
  • Commercial Fire Damage Restoration

    Crew size flexes with the scope of the loss, which keeps a business closed for the shortest time possible. Congress Street and Fourth Avenue storefronts, along with Broadway Boulevard commercial space, get priority scheduling, insurer coordination, and after-hours work so a business reopens sooner.

    How our Commercial Fire Damage Restoration works
  • Puff-Back Cleaning

    A furnace that puffs back throws oily black soot across walls, ceilings, and every duct run in minutes. Oil-fired furnaces are uncommon in Southern Arizona, where gas and electric heat dominate, but when it happens our crew uses degreasing agents built for oily soot, not standard smoke cleaning.

    More about Puff-Back Cleaning
  • Wildfire Smoke Remediation

    The 2020 Bighorn Fire burned 119,987 acres in the Santa Catalina Mountains after a lightning strike, with evacuations reaching the Catalina Foothills. Our team removes exterior ash, runs HEPA filtration, and deodorizes the interior, no flame needed to touch the home.

    More about Wildfire Smoke Remediation
  • Duct & HVAC Smoke Cleaning

    Central AC and evaporative coolers run heavily nearly year-round here, and smoke pulled into forced-air systems after a nearby fire keeps recirculating for months. Duct and vent soot cleaning paired with HEPA filtration is often the missing step in a cleanup that otherwise looks finished.

    See Duct & HVAC Smoke Cleaning details
  • Chimney Fire Cleanup

    Wood-burning fireplaces still exist in the historic districts, Old Fort Lowell, and midtown, along with larger Catalina Foothills custom homes, less universal in a desert climate but real. Our crew clears the creosote and soot around the firebox. Skip relighting until a licensed pro checks the flue.

  • ★★★★★

    They were at the house before the fire department had even finished. Boarded it up, tarped the roof, and had a plan by morning. That kind of response is why I recommend them to everyone.

    James R. · Verified Tucson customer

  • ★★★★★

    Half the garage burned and the smell had moved into the kitchen. They cleaned the structure, scrubbed the air, and rebuilt the garage so well the neighbors asked who did it.
