Complete fire and smoke damage restoration following a grease fire in Scottsdale, AZ
📷 Before and after photos will be added when available from the Sevco Restoration project archive.
The Morrison residence in Scottsdale experienced a grease fire that originated on the stovetop and spread to the range hood and upper cabinets before being extinguished. While the fire was contained to the kitchen, smoke and soot traveled throughout the home via the HVAC system, affecting every room.
The primary challenge on this project was the extent of smoke migration. Despite the fire being limited to the kitchen, thermal imaging revealed smoke residue in the wall cavities of three adjacent rooms. The HVAC system had distributed fine soot particles throughout the entire home, requiring a full system cleaning in addition to the kitchen restoration.
Sevco Restoration began with a complete shutdown and cleaning of the HVAC system to prevent further soot distribution. All affected kitchen materials were removed, including cabinets, countertops, flooring, and drywall. The adjacent rooms were cleaned using professional-grade chemical sponges and thermal fogging. The kitchen was fully rebuilt with new cabinets, quartz countertops, tile flooring, and painted drywall matching the original finish.
The Morrison residence was fully restored to its pre-loss condition in 12 days. The homeowners returned to a kitchen that was cleaner and more updated than before the fire. All smoke odor was eliminated, confirmed by air quality testing upon project completion.
