Revo Restoration & Construction is a family-owned company based on Windy Hill Road in Marietta, GA. We have spent more than 20 years cleaning up after fires in Marietta and across Cobb County.
Our technicians are IICRC certified, so soot removal and smoke odor treatment are done to industry standards. We are also a licensed Georgia general contractor. That means one company handles your fire and smoke damage restoration from the first phone call to the final repair.
Homeowners in Marietta call us because someone answers at any hour. Insurance adjusters work with us because our damage reports are clear and complete. Here is what that means for your property.
Emergency Fire and Smoke Damage Help in Marietta, GA
A house fire does not stop causing damage when the flames go out. The next few hours determine how much of your property you can save. Revo runs emergency crews across Marietta, GA at any hour, on any day. Here is how that first day works.
What to Do in the First Few Hours After a Fire
Once the fire department clears the building, a few simple steps protect what is left. You are not expected to clean anything yourself.
Do not go inside until the fire department says the structure is safe.
Leave soot where it is on walls, ceilings, and furniture. Wiping it only pushes the residue deeper into the surface.
Turn off your HVAC system so smoke does not travel through the ducts into clean rooms.
Open windows only if the weather is dry. Damp air makes smoke odor settle harder.
Photograph every room before moving anything.
Call your insurance company, then call a fire damage restoration contractor.
Take your medication, ID, plus any important papers with you.
How Fast We Can Be at Your Property
Someone picks up the phone at 678-967-3087 around the clock. From our base on Windy Hill Road, a Revo crew reaches most of Marietta within the hour. Smyrna, Kennesaw, Vinings, Mableton, Acworth, Powder Springs, Austell, Woodstock, plus Roswell all sit inside our standard response area.
Timing matters more than most people expect. Soot turns acidic as it cools, so it begins etching glass, metal, and finished wood within the first day. Waiting a weekend can turn a cleanable surface into a replacement line item on your claim.
Emergency Board Up and Roof Tarping
Fire crews cut vent holes in roofs. They break windows to reach the fire. That leaves your property open to rain, wind, animals, plus anyone walking past.
Revo boards up doors, windows, and open walls on the same visit. We tarp damaged roof sections before the next storm reaches Cobb County. This step also protects your claim, because most policies require you to prevent further damage once the fire is out. If rain has already come through the roof, we handle the water damage restoration at the same time.
Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration Services We Provide
Fire damage is never just one problem. Heat, smoke, soot, plus the water used to put the fire out all leave a different mess behind. Revo handles every part of it under one contract. These are the fire and smoke damage restoration services we provide in Marietta.
Soot and Smoke Residue Removal
Soot behaves differently depending on what burned. Revo tests the residue first, then matches the cleaning method to it, so surfaces get properly cleaned rather than smeared or scratched.
Smoke Odor Removal and Air Treatment
Smoke odor hides inside porous materials. We treat it at the source with hydroxyl generators, thermal fogging, and sealers, so the smell does not return once your windows close again.
Water Damage Cleanup After Firefighting
Firefighting water soaks into subfloors, drywall, and insulation. Revo extracts it, then dries the structure to the IICRC S500 standard, so mold does not follow the fire.
Contents Cleaning and Pack Out
Furniture, clothing, electronics, plus documents often survive a fire. We inventory every item, clean what can be saved off-site, then store it safely until your home is ready.
Structural Cleaning and Deodorizing
Studs, joists, and subfloor need cleaning before anything gets rebuilt over them. Revo washes, sands, then seals the frame, so odor never gets trapped inside your new walls.
Restore Indoor Air After Smoke Damage
Fine smoke particles stay airborne for weeks after a fire. We run HEPA air scrubbers throughout the job, then test the air before we hand your property back.
HVAC and Duct Cleaning After Smoke
Our air handler pulls smoke into every room it serves. Revo cleans the ducts, coils, plus the blower, then replaces filters, so the system stops recirculating soot.
Fire Damage Repair and Reconstruction
Revo holds a Marietta general contractor license, so the rebuild never leaves our team. Framing, drywall, roofing, cabinets, plus paint all get finished by the crew that cleaned up.

Types of Smoke Damage We Treat
Not all smoke leaves the same mark. What burned, how hot it burned, plus how long it smoldered all change the residue sitting on your walls. Using the wrong cleaning method on the wrong residue sets the stain permanently. Revo Restoration & Construction trains its technicians on all four.
- Dry Smoke from High Heat Fires: Fast-burning wood or paper fires produce a dry, powdery residue. It brushes off easily, but it travels far, working into cracks, outlets, plus wall cavities. We vacuum with HEPA equipment before any wet method touches the surface.
- Wet Smoke from Low Heat Smoldering Fires: Plastics or rubber smoldering at low heat leave a thick, sticky film with a heavy odor. It smears badly under pressure, so wiping ruins the surface. Revo uses solvent-based cleaning here, never a household sponge.
- Protein Residue from Kitchen Fires: Burnt food leaves almost no visible mark. A thin yellow film spreads across cabinets, ceilings, plus paint, discoloring finishes while the smell lingers for months. Kitchen fires in Marietta homes produce this type most often.
- Soot and Ash from Furnace or Fuel Oil Fires: A furnace puffback pushes greasy black soot through every duct in the house. It coats walls, fabrics, plus electronics within minutes. Revo cleans the system first, because cleaning the rooms before the ducts wastes your money.

Why Marietta Homeowners and Businesses Call Revo Restoration & Construction?
Plenty of companies can dry out a building. Fewer can finish the job you actually need done, which is getting your property back to the way it was. That gap is why fire damage calls in Marietta keep coming to Revo Restoration & Construction. Here are the top reasons to choose us:
One Team from Cleanup Through Rebuild
Most companies clean up, then hand you off to go find a contractor. Revo carries one estimate, one schedule, one point of contact from the first day to move in.
IICRC Certified Technicians
IICRC certification means our crews follow written industry standards, not habit. Adjusters recognize those standards, which makes your fire damage claim move faster with fewer questions attached.
Licensed Georgia General Contractor
Structural repairs after a fire need permits, inspections, plus code-compliant work. Our license covers all of it, so your rebuild passes inspection the first time.
20+ Years of Hands-on Experience
Two decades on fire jobs teach you what can be saved. That judgment keeps salvageable cabinets, framing, and flooring out of the dumpster, which lowers your total claim.
Family-Owned and Local to Marietta
We live where we work. Our family-owned team has the owner on active fire jobs, so problems get solved on site instead of inside a corporate franchise office.
24/7 Emergency Response
Fires rarely start at a convenient hour. A real person takes your call at night, on weekends, on holidays, and then a crew gets dispatched within the same hour.

Frequently Asked Question

- 24/7 Emergency Response
- Family-Owned & Locally Operated
How Long Does Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration Take?
It depends on how much burned. Cleanup alone usually runs three days to two weeks. Add the rebuild, plus most Marietta jobs finish somewhere between one month and six months. Revo gives you a written timeline after the first assessment, then updates it every week.
Does Homeowners Insurance Cover Fire and Smoke Damage in Georgia?
Yes, in almost every case. Standard Georgia homeowners policies cover fire, smoke, plus the water used to put the fire out. Limits, deductibles, and exclusions vary by policy, so check yours or ask your agent. Revo bills your insurer directly, so you are not paying out of pocket first.
Can Smoke Smell Be Removed from a House Permanently?
Yes, when the source gets removed instead of masked. Smoke odor comes from residue trapped inside porous materials, so it always returns if someone just sprays deodorizer over it. Permanent removal means cleaning the material, treating the air, then sealing the surfaces that still hold odor.
Is it Safe to Stay in My Home After a Fire?
Usually not, at least at first. Soot particles are small enough to reach your lungs, plus damaged wiring or weakened framing creates real hazards. Wait until the fire department clears the structure. Most policies cover temporary housing while restoration work is underway.
Who Pays for the Water Damage Caused by Firefighters?
Your homeowners policy does. Water used to fight a fire counts as part of the fire loss, not as a separate claim. Extraction, structural drying, and any follow-up repairs are covered under the same claim number in most Georgia policies.
Can I Clean Soot Off Walls Myself?
We do not recommend it. Soot smears into paint and drywall under pressure, which turns a cleanable wall into one that needs replacing. Household cleaners also react badly with acidic residue. Leave it alone until someone identifies which type of soot you are dealing with.
What Happens to Furniture and Clothes Covered in Soot?
Most of it can be saved. Textiles go out for specialized cleaning, hard goods get cleaned on-site or off-site; then everything gets inventoried for your claim. Items beyond saving are photographed and documented, so your insurer reimburses you properly.
Do You Handle the Rebuild, or Only the Cleanup?
Both. Revo is licensed for restoration work plus general construction in Georgia, so one contract covers the whole job. You will not hire a second contractor, rebid the work, or wait for another schedule to open up.
