Why McKinney Homeowners Choose Warrior Restoration

One Company. Start to Finish.

Most restoration companies handle only the cleanup -- then hand you off to a general contractor for repairs. Warrior Restoration LLC does both in house. Owner Justin Miller runs a crew of 6 with 3 response trucks equipped for emergency board-up, soot removal, structural drying, content pack-out, and full reconstruction of drywall, paint, trim, and flooring. One call, one crew, one project from the day of the fire through move-in ready.

We carry a limited lifetime warranty on workmanship and on the equipment used. Owner-operated means Justin is personally accountable for every job -- not a franchise call center dispatching subcontractors.

What We Do

Our Comprehensive Fire Damage Services

Every service is performed in house by our IICRC-certified crew. No subcontracting, no hand-offs.

Emergency Board-Up and Tarping

We secure your property on day one -- boarding windows, doors, and roof breaches to stop weather intrusion and vandalism while restoration begins.

Soot Removal

Dry chemical sponges and HEPA vacuums lift soot from walls, ceilings, and contents before it etches surfaces permanently. Speed matters -- soot becomes harder to remove within 24 to 72 hours.

Smoke Odor Elimination

Thermal foggers and HEPA air scrubbers neutralize smoke particles at the source. Surface cleaning alone does not remove embedded odor from porous materials.

Content Cleaning and Pack-Out

Furniture, clothing, and personal items are inventoried, cleaned on site or packed out for off-site treatment, and returned fully catalogued.

Structural Drying

Firefighting water soaks structural materials fast. Industrial dehumidifiers and high-velocity air movers dry walls, subfloors, and framing to prevent mold growth in fire-affected areas.

HVAC and Air Duct Cleaning

We clean your air ducts and HVAC system -- not replace them. Smoke residue settles in ductwork within hours and will continue recirculating until professionally removed.

Reconstruction

Drywall, paint, trim, and flooring -- all handled in house by the same crew. No separate contractor to coordinate. Move-in ready from a single project.

Thermal Imaging Assessment

Calibrated moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras find hidden water and heat damage inside walls and ceilings that visual inspection misses.

How We Work

Inside a Fire Restoration Project

From the moment you call to the day you walk back into a restored home, every step follows a defined sequence. No surprises, no gaps.

Emergency Assessment

We arrive within 1 hour and assess structural integrity, smoke spread, and water from firefighting. Thermal imaging and moisture meters identify hidden damage before work begins.

Board-Up and Tarping

Windows, doors, and any roof breaches are secured immediately. Protecting the structure from weather and unauthorized entry is the first physical task on every fire job.

Soot and Smoke Removal

Chemical dry sponges, HEPA vacuums, and thermal foggers remove soot and smoke residue from all surfaces and neutralize odor particles throughout the structure, including ductwork.

Structural Drying

Industrial dehumidifiers and high-velocity air movers dry structural materials to certified drying standards, preventing mold growth from firefighting water.

Content Pack-Out

Salvageable furniture, clothing, and personal items are inventoried and cleaned. Items needing off-site treatment are packed out, catalogued, and stored until the home is ready.

Reconstruction

Our in-house crew replaces fire-damaged drywall, applies paint, installs trim and flooring. One company handles your home from emergency through move-in ready.

Insurance Claims

We Handle Your Insurance Claim from Start to Finish

Fire claims are complicated. Warrior Restoration handles the paperwork so you can focus on your family. Here is exactly how the process works when you use us:

  • We bill your insurance carrier directly. You do not write us a check. We work with your carrier's adjuster and submit the full scope of damage.
  • We meet adjusters on site. Justin walks the property with the adjuster to ensure hidden damage is documented before approval, not discovered afterward.
  • We file supplements. When work reveals damage not included in the original approval, we file supplements directly with your carrier to cover it.
  • Your out-of-pocket is your deductible only. We accept the carrier's approved amount minus your deductible as payment in full.
  • We handle mortgage company checks. When your lender is on the insurance check, we coordinate directly with the mortgage company to release funds.

Free On-Site Estimates

We inspect at no charge and provide a complete damage assessment before any work begins.

Limited Lifetime Warranty

Fire Damage in McKinney

Older Homes and New Builds Burn Differently

McKinney's housing runs the full range. Homes around the Historic Downtown Square and the 1875 courthouse district were built with balloon framing and decades-old wiring, where fire and smoke travel inside wall and floor cavities into rooms that never showed flame. The newer subdivisions filling out since the early 2000s burn hotter and faster as synthetic finishes and open floor plans feed the fire.

Either way, the smoke is the part that reaches everything. Within minutes, particles enter the HVAC system and settle throughout the house, and soot begins etching surfaces within 24 to 72 hours. Standard cleaning does not reach particles embedded in porous materials -- drywall, wood framing, fabric, and insulation all absorb smoke at the microscopic level.

Professional-grade equipment closes the gap. Warrior Restoration uses thermal foggers, HEPA air scrubbers, and chemical sponge dry-cleaning to address smoke residue at the particle level throughout the entire structure.

We handle everything in house -- emergency board-up and tarping on day one through soot removal, structural drying, content pack-out, and full reconstruction of drywall, paint, trim, and flooring. One company, one point of contact from start to finish.
We bill your insurance carrier directly and meet adjusters on site. We submit the full damage scope to your carrier, file supplements when hidden damage is discovered after the initial approval, and accept the carrier's approved amount minus your deductible as payment in full. You do not pay anything out of pocket beyond your deductible.
Yes. Smoke particles travel through HVAC systems and settle on surfaces throughout the house within hours. We use thermal foggers and HEPA air scrubbers to neutralize smoke odor at the particle level and clean your air ducts (we clean them, we do not replace them). Ignoring the odor usually means the residue is still active and will worsen over time.
Our lead technician holds IICRC FSRT (Fire and Smoke Restoration Technician) certification, plus IICRC WRT (Water Restoration Technician) and ASD (Applied Structural Drying) for the water damage left by firefighting efforts. We carry $2 million in general liability insurance.
Yes. Soot is acidic and begins etching surfaces, discoloring walls, and degrading fabrics within 24 to 72 hours. Smoke residue in HVAC systems continues to circulate through the air. Prompt professional removal with chemical sponges and HEPA vacuums protects your health and limits permanent material losses.
We perform a full content inventory, clean salvageable items on site using appropriate methods for each material type, and pack out items requiring off-site treatment or storage. Contents are catalogued and tracked through the process.
