Call Now (833) 502-4258Recent history in Hawaii
The August 2023 Lahaina wildfire on Maui was one of the deadliest US wildfires in more than a century. Events like these are why fire damage board-up and tarping needs fast, thorough work and careful documentation for insurance.
Wildfire smoke reaching homes
Wildfire smoke in Hawaii can enter homes miles from any flames, leaving fine soot and odor in HVAC systems, insulation, and fabrics. The EPA recommends keeping windows closed and using high-efficiency filters during smoke events, and lingering odor afterward usually means residue that needs professional cleaning.
Humidity and smoke odor
Humid air in Hawaii helps smoke odor settle into porous materials, and firefighting water can start mold growth quickly. Drying and odor treatment should begin soon after the property is released.
