Fire & Smoke Damage questions
Do I need a permit for repairs in Chandler?
Cleanup and drying don't. Structural, plumbing and electrical repairs need permits from the City of Chandler Development Services.
Is a slab leak covered by insurance in Chandler?
Many policies cover the water damage and access costs from a sudden slab leak, but not the pipe repair itself.
Can I clean soot myself?
Light dry soot in a small area sometimes can be, but wiping often smears it deeper. Larger areas, oily soot and anything involving odor are best left to professionals with the right cleaning methods.
Does homeowners insurance cover smoke damage from a wildfire?
Usually yes, even if the fire didn't reach your home. Document the damage, including ash and odor, and report it to your insurer quickly.
