Why DryMark Restoration Boca Raton Is Hollywood’s Preferred Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Company
We’ve restored fire-damaged homes in Hollywood since 2011, and the pattern is consistent: the buildings that give homeowners the most trouble after a fire are the 1960s-1980s mid-rises lining the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk and the man-made islands of Golden Isles and Harbor Islands. Alicia Brennan built this company around a documentation gap she saw as a claims adjuster - sloppy scopes that insurers reject, homeowners left paying out of pocket. That gap is especially costly in Hollywood, where a fire restoration job can collide with Florida’s SB 4-D milestone inspection law and freeze your claim for weeks.
Our 12,000+ restored homes include hundreds in Broward County, every one with a written price before work started and a photo record on every visit. We answer our phones live, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - no voicemail while smoke residue is still settling into your drywall. And we offer a Free Second Opinion on any competitor’s written estimate; bring us their scope and we’ll review it at no charge.
Hollywood’s dual flood geography - Atlantic storm surge from the east, canal backflow from the C-10 and C-11 SFWMD canals to the west - means we routinely handle fires where firefighting water has compounded the damage. Our crews know the difference between a Category 1 fire-suppression spray and a Category 3 canal-backflow situation, and we document each classification to IICRC standards so your adjuster has no room to downgrade the claim.
Our Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Services in Hollywood

Fire Damage Cleanup
A kitchen fire in a 1972 mid-rise off the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk left soot residue in the shared corridor and burned through drywall into a concrete party wall. When our techs pulled the charred board, we exposed spalling concrete and rebar - instantly flagging the building’s SB 4-D milestone inspection before we could finish the containment or odor removal. We boarded the unit, ran XPOWER air movers with carbon filters to keep smoke odor from migrating into neighboring units, and submitted an ARB-compliant repair package to the HOA so the rebuilt wall matched the building’s original finish and color while the engineer cleared the structural scope. That’s standard procedure for us. Every fire damage cleanup in Hollywood starts with a structural assessment, not a demolition hammer.

Smoke & Soot Removal
Hollywood’s inland concrete block homes from the 1950s-1970s trap smoke differently than the open-floor condos on the beach. In a block home west of US-1, soot works its way into the porous concrete and the original flat roof cavity; in a Broadwalk mid-rise, it travels through shared HVAC chases and elevator shafts. We map the smoke migration with moisture meters and thermal imaging, then select the cleaning agent based on whether the fire was protein-based (kitchen grease), synthetic (plastics and furnishings), or natural (wood framing). Our techs are trained to IICRC fire and smoke restoration standards, and we document every affected square foot with photos before we start cleaning.

Odor Removal & Deodorization
Smoke odor in a Hollywood condo doesn’t stay in your unit. It migrates. We use hydroxyl generators and ozone treatments - selected based on whether the building is occupied - paired with Injectidry duct-based delivery systems that push deodorizing vapor through wall cavities without tearing out intact drywall. In HOA-governed buildings, we schedule this work outside quiet hours and notify the property manager in writing. The carbon-filtered air movers run continuously to protect neighboring units. Every deodorization job includes a written odor-removal guarantee under our 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out
When fire damage forces you out of a Hollywood Beach or Golden Isles unit, we inventory, photograph, and pack your contents to our cleaning facility or a climate-controlled storage partner. Each item is logged with a condition photo - pre-cleaning and post-cleaning - so your insurer has a complete record. Delicate items (electronics, artwork, textiles) are handled under RIA guidelines. The inventory sheet is yours before we move anything.

AfterTrusted Brands We Service in Hollywood
Our equipment fleet includes professional-grade drying and deodorization systems from Dri-Eaz, Phoenix, and Injectidry - brands that produce the documented psychrometric data insurers expect to see on a fire restoration invoice. We stock HEPA-filtered air scrubbers, carbon-filtered odor control units, and thermal fogging equipment sized for both single-family homes in inland Hollywood and multi-unit mid-rises along the Intracoastal. Every machine’s output is logged daily: temperature, relative humidity, and vapor pressure differential (the force that drives moisture out of materials). That data goes into your drying log, which goes to your adjuster. No log, no payment - we learned that from Alicia Brennan’s years on the claims side.
Common Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Problems We See in Hollywood Homes

- SB 4-D structural holds on mid-rise fires. A fire that breaches drywall into a shared concrete wall in a Hollywood Beach or Harbor Islands condo often exposes spalling concrete or corroded rebar, which legally triggers the building’s milestone inspection. Restoration stops until a licensed structural engineer signs off - a delay that newer Pembroke Pines subdivisions rarely face.
- HOA ARB violations on replacement materials. Replacing a fire-damaged entry door or exterior shutter with an off-the-shelf style that doesn’t match the building’s approved palette can force the homeowner to redo the work at full cost. We source ARB-compliant materials before demolition starts.
- Quiet-hour work stoppages in dense condo communities. Running demolition equipment or high-velocity air movers during HOA-designated quiet hours along the Broadwalk or in Golden Isles generates immediate neighbor complaints and written violations. We schedule loud work within approved windows and use low-decibel equipment during restricted hours.
- Multi-source water classification after firefighting. Hollywood’s canal network means fire-suppression water in inland homes can mix with Category 3 canal backflow during storm events, changing the remediation protocol and the documentation required for insurance. We test and classify on arrival, not assumption.

FAQs - Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Hollywood

Not automatically - but if the fire burns through drywall and exposes spalling concrete or corroded rebar in a shared structural wall, the building’s milestone inspection obligation is legally triggered. We assess this on arrival and document our findings with photos so the HOA and engineer have what they need to clear the scope. Call (754) 247-1426 and we’ll walk you through the inspection timeline for your specific building.
Yes. We source ARB-compliant replacement materials from the HOA’s approved vendor list or architectural specifications before we remove the damaged door. The new door, hardware finish, and paint color are submitted to the property manager for pre-approval. Haven Standard, Clause 1: the written price includes this compliance step, not a generic door swap that fails review.
We establish containment with polyethylene barriers and negative air pressure, then run carbon-filtered air movers and hydroxyl generators to scrub odor from common areas without disrupting residents. The building manager receives a daily log of equipment placement and air-quality readings. Neighboring units are inspected and documented at no charge if migration is suspected.
Category 1 is clean water from a fire suppression line - treated as a straightforward extraction and dry. Category 2 is gray water with mild contamination, often from firefighting runoff that has passed through building materials. Category 3 is black water: sewage, canal backflow from Hollywood’s C-10 or C-11 systems, or storm surge. Category 3 requires full PPE, antimicrobial treatment, and specialized disposal. We test and classify on site, document to IICRC standards, and build the remediation protocol from that classification. Call (754) 247-1426 if you’re unsure which category applies to your situation.
Absolutely. Loud demolition and equipment operation are scheduled within the HOA’s designated work windows. During quiet hours, we use low-decibel equipment or pause active work, maintaining containment and air filtration without noise violations. The schedule is written into your scope before we start - no surprises for you or your neighbors.
