Fire Restoration
Our IICRC-certified technicians provide comprehensive fire and smoke damage restoration. We secure properties, remove debris, clean structural elements, and deodorize affected areas using HEPA filtration. Specialized reconstruction services return properties to pre-loss condition while coordinating with insurance providers throughout the process.
Water Damage Repair
We offer rapid water extraction and drying services for Category 1-3 water losses. Using thermal imaging and moisture meters, our team identifies hidden moisture, removes contaminated materials, and employs industrial air movers and dehumidifiers. Our process prevents mold growth and structural damage while documenting all restoration steps for insurance claims.
Mold Removal
Certified mold remediation specialists follow ANSI/IICRC S520 standards to address mold infestations. We establish containment, use negative air pressure systems, remove unsalvageable materials, and apply antimicrobial treatments. Post-remediation testing by third-party hygienists ensures complete mold elimination and safe re-occupancy of affected spaces.
Document Recovery
With one of only seven national document drying chambers, we restore water-damaged records using vacuum freeze drying and digital imaging. Our HIPAA-certified technicians handle medical, legal, and historical documents, employing on-site stabilization and controlled drying environments to preserve sensitive materials during the recovery process.
Biohazard Cleanup
We specialize in professional biohazard remediation following traumatic incidents. Our technicians use OSHA-compliant PPE to safely remove contaminated materials, disinfect affected areas with EPA-registered biocides, and follow strict chain-of-custody protocols for proper disposal. The process restores properties to habitable conditions while maintaining strict confidentiality for property owners.

I had DAI come and do a thorough cleaning in my house at URI. They came last year and did such an awesome job that I wanted them to come back again. They are the most professional group of people, detail oriented, friendly and really take pride in their work. From Max, Tim , Kim and all the workers who came. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you need a cleaning I would recommend DAI.
