Home / Services / Smoke Damage

Smoke damage claims, for the loss insurers often overlook.

Smoke damage isn't just a smell. It penetrates walls, ceilings, HVAC systems, clothing, furniture, and contents — and carriers routinely undervalue it. We document what they miss.

What we cover

Smoke travels further than carriers admit.

Soot and residue infiltrate porous materials and ductwork. We test, document, and itemize so coverage extends to everything the smoke touched.

Wall & ceiling residue

Soot penetration, staining, and required surface remediation.

HVAC contamination

Ductwork cleaning, coil replacement, filtration, and air quality.

Clothing & textiles

Garments, linens, drapes, and upholstery affected by smoke.

Furniture & contents

Porous surfaces, electronics, and personal items absorbing odor.

Odor remediation

Ozone treatment, thermal fogging, and lingering odor mitigation.

Concealed surfaces

Inside cabinets, attics, crawlspaces, and behind built-ins.

How we help

Clear documentation. Stronger claims. Better settlements.

01

Inspect the damage

We review visible and hidden damage, smoke migration, and impacted contents.

02

Document the claim

Photos, estimates, inventories, code reports, and supporting evidence — organized.

03

Negotiate the settlement

We communicate with your carrier and advocate for a fair, full settlement.

Why Assured Claims

Smoke is invisible damage. Make it visible on paper.

Without documentation, carriers minimize smoke claims to cleaning. We bring the testing and inventory that proves the full loss.

Independent advocacy

We never represent insurance carriers — only policyholders.

Policy-first interpretation

We read every endorsement so coverage gets applied fully.

Faster, cleaner timelines

Organized claims close sooner — and at higher values.

Fee only on recovery

You pay nothing until we recover money for your claim.

"The fire was three rooms away. They proved the whole house needed remediation."
