What Are Emergency Services for Fire Damage Restoration?
The initial actions our professionals take for fire damage restoration and remediation are critical to protecting your property and its contents. With just a phone call to our SERVPRO team, you can get experienced restorers responding fast to help with the obstacles of:
- Smoke Remediation
- Fire and Smoke Damage
- Fire Damage Restoration
- Fire Damaged Homes
Does Smoke Remediation Mean Odor Removal?
Comfortable living can be challenging when homeowners contend with overwhelming noxious odors and smells left behind after combustion. Our cleaning process also centers on odor removal and neutralization to ensure that we can get you back to everyday life as soon as possible. We can even take contents off-site to our SERVPRO facility for focused deodorization of multiple items simultaneously.
Who Completes Fire and Smoke Damage Repairs?
Repairs are often necessary after fire damage incidents, as structure fires spread quickly and overwhelm combustible material like drywall, wood framing, and flooring. With a general contracting license, we can offer various repairs and reconstruction services necessary after initial mitigation and cleaning efforts have been completed.
Soot Removal in Fire Damaged Homes
Soot and smoke residues can be among the most challenging obstacles for fire restoration professionals on our roster. Removing these particles from the environment begins with proper air filtration to restore indoor air quality (IAQ) and then address soiled surfaces. We have a leading assortment of potent cleaning products, solvents, and detergents for surface cleaning.

What our
customers are saying
I had a fire in my apartment that started in my kitchen. After the fire department left Ben from SERVPRO of the Upper West Side was extremely helpful! We got an estimate and they quickly got to work. Two days later the smell of the smoke was completely gone. The soot was gone from all the surfaces and cabinets in my kitchen. It was clean and done with such professionalism. The price was fair and I was more satisfied. I recommend SERVPRO of the upper west side to all families that have lost their homes from floods, fires, and etc.
I appreciate the care taken with my wedding album. We just got the pictures back from our reception when dryer lint started a fire. Thought they were ruined but your staff is amazing. Back on the shelf on the day we moved back.
We tried your competitors but were appalled at how often they skipped an appointment or left junk for us to cleanup. Fast, consistent, and professional work are reasons why SERVPRO is the restoration company for us.
I am an engineer and did my due diligence. Training and the right equipment are why SERVPRO is your answer to damage from water, smoke, and other disasters.
I checked a lot of reviews and asked neighbors. Reports of speed and high-quality services are why SERVPRO made the cut. My contractor praised the work you did cleaning up water and mold damage before my latest remodel. Adding my positive review to many others.
I felt like a fool when my breakfast burned. Your work crew was kind and very prompt. Cleaned up the sprinkler water and explained why the whole apartment needed inspection for that sticky coating. Very reassuring, which I needed.
SERVPRO employees are wizards! I never thought you could clean the family silver, but I am thrilled to be wrong. Recommended wholeheartedly!
I was impressed by their odor control protocol. I would have given up, but your employees tried many things until the odor from our kitchen fire is GONE from everyplace in our home.
So glad you handle water as well as fire damage. We got 2 for 1 help from your talented technicians.

About Us
Family is at the heart of what we do and is a large contributing factor to the success that we have had through Manhattan and all of the Upper West Side. Not only does the entire team respond to one another like family members, working together to solve problems and to overcome obstacles, but our owner Benjamin O. Vargas is establishing a reputation and report in our communities to pass this company down to his family in the future.
Disasters can strike without warning, and with so many apartments and condos along Broadway and against the Hudson River or Central Park, we have many properties that depend on our fast response and expertise when disasters strike. We have a growing roster of IICRC-Certified restoration, mitigation, and recovery technicians with accreditations in nearly every facet of the industry. We have the equipment and the expertise to help.
We New Yorkers band together, and as a locally owned and operated company, it is essential to our franchise to give back to our communities whenever and wherever we can. We support many of the organizations and non-profits that operate around our facility and service area, and we seek out ways to both volunteer our time and resources into helping those less fortunate throughout our borough and beyond.
Art and culture take center stage throughout the Upper West Side, from American Museum of Natural History to Beacon Theatre, we have many massive properties as susceptible to the effects of water, fire, mold, storms, flooding, and biohazardous threats as any other buildings we work to help when disasters strike. We take great care to preserve original building materials, as many of the properties through the historic district have been around for a century or more.
We know that no home or business owner is ready for disasters and emergencies, but our SERVPRO of the Upper West Side IICRC-Certified technicians can roll out at a moment’s notice to help. Whenever disaster strikes, trust the team that can make it “Like it never even happened.”
