Wait for fire officials or the appropriate authority to confirm safe access before entering. Share confirms job fit, service area, and current availability before dispatch.
Water Restoration After a Fire Response
Fire suppression can send water across floors, through ceilings, into wall cavities, and into rooms beyond the fire area. The water loss is a separate restoration problem that should be evaluated once the property is safe to enter.
Wet Building Materials
Evaluate affected drywall, insulation, ceilings, flooring, cabinets, wood, and subfloors to determine the appropriate water-mitigation steps.
Structural Drying
Use air movement, dehumidification, and moisture checks where appropriate to dry affected materials and monitor progress.
Moisture Mapping
Check where water traveled beyond the visible area and organize relevant readings as drying progresses.
Photos and Job Records
Document affected rooms, visible conditions, water-mitigation steps, equipment, and drying progress for the authorized property contact.
Residential and Commercial Losses
Coordinate water-mitigation work with authorized owners, property managers, facility contacts, and the other professionals involved in the loss.
What Share Restoration Handles
This page is specifically for water damage caused by fire suppression—not fire, smoke, soot, or odor restoration.
- Call Share Restoration when sprinklers, hoses, or suppression discharge left standing water or wet walls, ceilings, flooring, cabinets, insulation, or other building materials.
- Use the appropriate fire-restoration specialist for fire damage, smoke, soot, odor, contents cleaning, or fire-damaged structural components.
- Follow official safety direction. Share does not determine whether a fire-damaged property is structurally safe, electrically safe, or cleared for re-entry.
- Confirm authority. The property owner, authorized manager, or another person authorized to request work should call or submit the assessment.
What to Do Next
Safety and authorization come first; water mitigation can follow once access is allowed.
- Stay out until access is cleared. Follow instructions from fire officials, the building authority, or the appropriate safety professional.
- Do not disturb hazards. Avoid damaged electrical systems, weakened materials, standing water near electricity, and visibly unsafe areas.
- Call the authorized contact. The owner, manager, or facility representative should confirm who can approve inspection and mitigation.
- Describe the water loss. Share the property ZIP code, when suppression occurred, affected rooms or levels, visible standing water, and materials that appear wet.
- Confirm the next step. Share will check whether the loss fits its water-restoration scope, the service area, safe-access requirements, and current availability.

Fire-Suppression Water Damage FAQs
Does Share Restoration handle fire and smoke cleanup?
No. Share Restoration is not advertising fire, smoke, soot, or odor restoration on this page. It handles qualifying water damage left by sprinklers, fire hoses, or another suppression response.
When should I call about sprinkler or firefighting water?
Call after the appropriate authority allows safe access, especially when standing water is present or water reached drywall, insulation, ceilings, flooring, cabinets, wood, or multiple rooms or levels.
Can Share decide whether the building is safe to enter?
No. Follow fire officials, the building authority, and the appropriate safety professionals. Share can evaluate the water-mitigation work only after safe access is confirmed.
Who can request an inspection or work?
The property owner, an authorized manager or facility representative, or another person with authority to request the work should contact Share.
What information should I have when I call?
Have the DFW ZIP code, when the fire suppression occurred, whether access is cleared, the affected rooms or levels, visible standing water, wet materials, and the name of the person authorized to approve the next step.
Water left behind after fire suppression?
Once safe access is confirmed, call Share Restoration for water extraction, affected-material cleanup, structural drying, moisture checks, and water-mitigation documentation.
