Before and After Photos of Custom Fire Damage Restoration Projects in Lehigh Acres, FL
Electrical Fire Restoration at 11 Louisiana Rd, Lehigh Acres, FL 33936
This 1976 corner-lot home in Leeland Heights, a short walk from Veterans Park Academy for the Arts, had much of its original wiring when a junction box in the attic overheated. Smoke stained the popcorn ceilings in three rooms, and a house that age needs testing before anyone cuts into them. Our crew sent ceiling samples out for asbestos testing and followed EPA lead-safe practices on the painted trim. Once the results came back clear, a licensed electrician rewired the circuit, and new drywall and paint closed up the bedroom ceiling.
Turnaround time: 10 days
Price: $7,300
Garage Fire Cleanup at 2713 7th St W, Lehigh Acres, FL 33971
Built in 2022, this concrete block home near Sunshine Elementary keeps its laundry in the single-car garage, which is where a lint-clogged dryer caught fire. The flames stayed in the garage, but smoke pushed under the interior door and left a gray film across the kitchen and hallway. Our technicians replaced the scorched garage drywall, cleaned the slab and swapped the plastic dryer duct for rigid metal. Inside, dry sponging and HEPA vacuuming cleared every room, and the house looked the way it did on move-in day.
Turnaround time: 7 days
Price: $7,000
Kitchen Fire Cleanup at 2802 2nd St SW, Lehigh Acres, FL 33976
A pan of oil flared up in this 3-bedroom home a few minutes from the Lee Boulevard and Gunnery Road shopping corridor. The cabinets survived, but grease smoke rode through the return vent into a 2018 air conditioning system the owners had no wish to replace. Our technicians cleaned the coil and blower to the NADCA ACR standard, then degreased and refinished the cabinet faces instead of tearing them out. Stain-blocking primer and fresh ceiling paint finished the kitchen, and the family skipped the cost of new cabinets.
Turnaround time: 5 days
Price: $5,700
Brushfire Ash Cleanup at 1002 Henry Ave, Lehigh Acres, FL 33972
A dry-season brushfire burned right up to the back edge of this home’s half-acre lot in eastern Lehigh Acres, about 2 miles from G. Weaver Hipps Elementary. Heat scorched the rear stucco, and ash blew through the window screens into the split bedrooms. Our crew soft washed the stucco and roof, replaced the damaged screens and ran a hydroxyl generator in the bedrooms to clear the odor. Blackened brush along the property line went out with the debris haul, which left a clear buffer for the next dry season.
Turnaround time: 5 days
Price: $5,400
Emergency Fire Damage Cleanup in the First 24 Hours After a Lehigh Acres Fire
Lehigh Acres Fire Control and Rescue District crews put out the flames, and the hours after they leave decide how much of the house survives. Every emergency call in Lehigh Acres follows the same checklist:
- Board up broken doors and windows and tarp any roof openings
- Extract firefighting water and set drying equipment
- Photograph every room for the insurance claim
- Move salvageable belongings out of smoke-filled rooms
That first visit also sets up the fire damage restoration estimate the adjuster reviews later.
Residential Fire Damage Restoration for Lehigh Acres' Boom-Era Homes
Between 2003 and 2007, Lehigh Acres built more homes than it had in the previous 50 years combined, according to The New York Times. Those houses share a lot, from single-story block walls and truss roofs to attic air handlers and builder-grade electrical panels.
Our Lehigh Acres crew knows where fires tend to start in that layout and how smoke moves through it.
Electrical Fire Damage Restoration in Single-Story Block Homes
Electrical fire damage restoration in these homes often starts in the attic, where wiring and junction boxes bake through two decades of Southwest Florida summers.
Smoke from an attic fire then drops through recessed lights and ceiling vents into every room below.
Our technicians open the ceiling only where char and heat damage reach.

Appliance Fire Damage Cleanup for Aging Water Heaters and Dryers
Appliance fire damage cleanup picks up as boom-era water heaters, dryers and AC condensers outlast their expected service lives.
Garage water heaters and laundry rooms off the kitchen put those fires close to living space.
Trusted Cape Coral Fire Damage removes the burned unit and cleans soot from nearby cabinets and walls.

Kitchen Fire Cleanup and Smoke Damage Cleaning for Lehigh Acres Families
Lehigh Acres skews young, with a median age of 34.8 and children living in nearly 42% of households, according to the 2020 census. Busy family kitchens see more grease fires than any other room, and the smoke they throw off coats far more than the stove.
Kitchen fire cleanup in Lehigh Acres homes usually includes:
- Grease fire cleanup on range hoods, backsplashes and countertops
- Smoke damaged cabinet cleaning inside and out, including shelves and drawers
- Smoke damaged wall cleaning and smoke damaged ceiling cleaning across open floor plans
- Kitchen fire damage repair when cabinets, counters or appliances need replacing
Parents often worry about soot on toys, bottles and high chairs, so our technicians clean or replace those items before anything else returns to the kitchen.
Exterior Fire Cleanup and Ash Removal Across Lehigh Acres' Wooded Lots
Nearly 90% of Lehigh Acres lots sat vacant as recently as 1997, and wooded parcels still separate many streets today. Dry-season brush fires on those parcels throw embers and ash onto nearby roofs, lanais and pool cages.
Trusted Cape Coral Fire Damage handles exterior fire cleanup and fire ash cleanup services on stucco, screens, gutters and driveways. Crews clear the ash before afternoon storms wash gray streaks down the walls and across the pavers.
Garage Fire Cleanup and Fire Damaged Material Removal in Lehigh Acres, FL
Garages in Lehigh Acres often double as workshops and storage for lawn equipment, paint and spare fuel, which turns a small spark into a fast fire. Garage fire cleanup starts with hauling out melted shelving and charred drywall, followed by fire damaged material removal down to sound framing.
Our crew then scrubs the slab and walls so the garage and the laundry room beside it smell clean again.
House Smoke Odor Removal and Air Duct Cleaning After Fire in Lehigh Acres, FL
Smoke odor in a Lehigh Acres home rarely stays in one room, because attic air handlers pull it through every duct. Trusted Cape Coral Fire Damage works through house smoke odor removal in a set order:
- Air duct cleaning after fire, including the air handler and coil
- Soot removal from ceilings, walls and light fixtures
- Smoke odor removal from upholstery and carpets through hot water extraction
- Thermal fogging or hydroxyl treatment for lingering odor, depending on whether the family stays home
Cleaning the ducts first stops the system from blowing soot onto freshly cleaned rooms.
Commercial Smoke Damage Cleanup Along Lee Boulevard and Homestead Road
The original Lehigh Acres planners set aside strips along Homestead Road and Lee Boulevard for commerce, and those corridors now hold most of the community's restaurants, offices and shops. Commercial smoke damage cleanup there usually means working around open neighbors in the same plaza.
Restaurant Fire Damage Restoration
Restaurant fire damage restoration along Lee Boulevard usually centers on grease-coated kitchens that share walls with neighboring storefronts. Our crew degreases hoods, walls and ceilings and pulls soaked ceiling tiles before rebuilding starts.
Reopening depends on a passing inspection, so our project manager plans the work schedule around that date.
Office Fire Damage Restoration
Office fire damage restoration in Lehigh Acres medical and professional buildings focuses on records, computers and the HVAC system that serves every suite.
Our technicians seal off damaged suites behind plastic barriers and run air scrubbers so neighboring offices keep seeing patients and clients.
Fire and Water Damage Restoration in Lehigh Acres Slab Homes
Lehigh Acres homes typically sit on concrete slabs with tile or laminate floors, and firefighting water spreads fast across them into bedrooms the fire never reached. Our technicians start water extraction after fire right away, then pull wet baseboards and set dehumidifiers for structural drying after fire.
Trusted Cape Coral Fire Damage also holds a Florida mold remediation license, which matters when water hides behind walls during the summer rainy season.
House Reconstruction After Fire in Lehigh Acres, FL
Rebuild work in unincorporated Lehigh Acres runs through Lee County permitting, and requirements vary with the scope of each project. Our project managers handle that paperwork alongside:
- Structural fire damage repair to trusses, headers and block walls
- Fire damaged drywall replacement and fire damaged flooring replacement
- Fire damaged roof repair on shingle and tile roofs
- Fire damage restoration painting to finish every room
New finishes get matched to the untouched rooms, so the house looks whole again instead of patched.

Younger households in Lehigh Acres fill their homes with laptops, game consoles, school clothes and sports gear, and smoke reaches all of it.
