IICRC FSRT certified — soot removal, odour treatment, and full commercial remediation.
Precimax Clean is Perth's IICRC FSRT-certified fire and smoke restoration company. Our Fire and Smoke Restoration Technician (FSRT) certification is independently audited and covers the full technical basis of smoke behaviour, soot deposition, odour penetration, and structural remediation. Combined with our IICRC WRT certification for water damage from firefighting operations, we are the only commercial cleaning company in Perth holding both specialist restoration certifications.

Fire and Smoke Restoration Perth
Precimax Clean holds IICRC FSRT (Fire and Smoke Restoration Technician) certification — the independently audited standard for professional fire damage assessment, soot removal, odour treatment, and structural remediation. This certification covers the technical basis of how smoke behaves in building structures, how soot deposits on different surfaces, and how smoke odour penetrates porous materials — knowledge that determines which restoration methods actually work and which simply mask the problem temporarily.
Fire and smoke damage is significantly more complex than it appears. Visible soot on surfaces is only part of the problem. Smoke penetrates wall cavities, HVAC systems, soft furnishings, and porous building materials — depositing invisible contamination and persistent odour compounds that recur for months if not properly treated. Our IICRC FSRT restoration process addresses all three damage types: visible soot and residue, airborne smoke particulate in HVAC and ventilation systems, and embedded odour in structural materials.
We also hold IICRC WRT certification for water damage restoration — which is almost always present after fire suppression. Sprinkler activation, firefighting water, and fire suppression foam create significant water damage alongside fire damage. Our dual certification means one company manages the complete restoration — fire, smoke, and suppression water damage — without you coordinating multiple contractors. We respond across all Perth suburbs — Perth CBD, Welshpool, Midland, Kewdale, and Rockingham

Fire Restoration Services
Fire and smoke damage requires a structured, technically-based restoration process — not just cleaning visible soot. Our IICRC FSRT approach addresses all three damage types.
Rapid deployment to fire-damaged property. Safety assessment — structural integrity, air quality, and hazardous material identification before any restoration work begins. Complete damage assessment and scope documentation produced for the property owner and insurer.
Different fire types produce different soot profiles — dry smoke, wet smoke, protein residue, and fuel-oil smoke each require different cleaning chemistry and techniques. Our IICRC FSRT training covers matching the cleaning method to the soot type. Incorrect method selection can permanently set soot staining into surfaces.
Smoke odour penetrates porous materials — drywall, timber, insulation, soft furnishings, and HVAC ductwork — and recurs for months if not properly addressed. We use thermal fogging, hydroxyl generation, and ozone treatment matched to the specific odour compound and penetration depth. Surface deodorising alone is not sufficient.
Smoke and soot particles are drawn through HVAC systems and deposited throughout the ductwork — contaminating every room connected to the system. HVAC duct cleaning, filter replacement, and system decontamination are required before the building can be safely re-occupied. We coordinate HVAC cleaning as part of the complete restoration scope.
Removal of fire-damaged contents and structural materials that cannot be restored — charred timber, melted materials, contaminated insulation, and fire-damaged drywall. Documented with photos for insurance purposes. Area prepared for restoration and eventual building reinstatement.
Comprehensive documentation produced throughout the restoration — initial damage assessment, scope of works, daily progress records, and completion report with clearance verification. Designed to meet insurance company and loss adjuster documentation requirements for fire damage claims.
Why Precimax Clean
Fire and smoke restoration requires specialist technical knowledge — not standard cleaning procedures applied to a more extreme situation.
IICRC FSRT Certified — Technical Knowledge That Determines Outcomes
The IICRC FSRT certification is not a general cleaning credential — it is a specialist qualification covering fire chemistry, smoke behaviour in structures, soot deposition physics, and odour compound treatment. The technical knowledge in our FSRT certification determines which cleaning agents we select for which soot type, which odour treatment method penetrates deeply enough to eliminate compounds rather than masking them, and which structural materials can be restored versus replaced. This matters enormously for both restoration outcomes and insurance claim validity.
Almost every significant fire event involves both fire/smoke damage and water damage from fire suppression. Our dual IICRC WRT and FSRT certifications mean we address both damage types under one restoration scope — with a single company accountable for the complete remediation. Your insurer has one IICRC-certified contractor to deal with. Your building manager has one point of contact. The risk of gaps between different contractors is eliminated.
Applying the wrong cleaning chemistry to a soot deposit can permanently set the staining into the surface. Wet smoke residue requires different chemistry to dry smoke. Protein fire residue — from cooking-related fires — is often invisible but produces intense odour and requires completely different treatment. Our IICRC FSRT training includes soot type identification as a foundational step before any cleaning commences. We assess first, then act.
Smoke odour that recurs weeks or months after restoration is the most common sign of incomplete treatment. Masking agents cover the odour temporarily — the compounds remain embedded in structural materials and re-volatilise as temperatures change. We use thermal fogging, hydroxyl generation, and ozone treatment to chemically neutralise odour compounds within the structure — not just on accessible surfaces. SafetyCulture records document each treatment method and application area.
Precimax Clean has completed large-scale fire and smoke restoration projects for commercial properties across Perth since 2008 — including the strip-out and restoration of a fire-damaged 47-room commercial premises at Aberdeen Street, East Perth. Our IICRC FSRT certification, combined with 17+ years of commercial operations in Perth, means we have the experience to manage complex, large-scale fire restoration projects that smaller operators are not equipped to handle.

Fire Damage Scenarios
Fire and smoke damage occurs across a wide range of commercial and residential property types. Our IICRC FSRT certification covers all fire categories and damage types.
Fire and smoke damage in multi-tenancy office buildings — including sprinkler activation damage on floors below, smoke migration through HVAC systems, and soot deposition in unaffected areas. Complete restoration with strata and building management documentation.
Kitchen fire and cooking fire damage — protein soot remediation, grease fire residue removal, commercial kitchen surface restoration, and exhaust system decontamination. Food-safe post-restoration verification for re-opening compliance.
Large-scale industrial fire damage requiring volume smoke and soot extraction across large floor areas. We completed large-scale fire restoration strip-out projects for commercial properties across Perth including significant industrial buildings.
Guest room and public area fire damage — room-by-room restoration, HVAC system decontamination, and rapid turnaround scheduling to minimise revenue impact. Insurance documentation for property management and hotel operators.
Home fire damage restoration — living areas, bedrooms, and kitchens. Personal contents assessment, structural material removal, odour treatment, and insurance documentation. Sensitive, professional service for residents navigating a stressful event.
Fire and smoke damage in strata buildings — managing restoration across multiple affected levels, inter-tenancy smoke migration assessment, and complex shared liability documentation for strata managers and body corporate insurers.
