In the picturesque neighborhoods of Camas, nestled near the Columbia River Gorge, homes are often surrounded by the lush natural landscapes that define Clark County. While this serene beauty offers tranquility, it also brings unique risks such as the occasional ice storm drifting through the Gorge. When fire and smoke disrupt your peace, whether from a kitchen mishap or a nearby wildfire, United Water Restoration Group of Vancouver is here to assist. By calling (360) 550-9500, you can ensure expert intervention. Our certified technicians will guide you through the restoration process and work diligently to return your home to its pre-loss condition.

Salmon Creek is named for a waterway that Clark County's own flood study profiles by name, alongside the Columbia and the two forks of the Lewis. That matters more than the floodplain map suggests: more than a quarter of flood-insurance claims in this county are filed for properties outside the mapped 100-year zone, because the everyday mechanism here is not a river over its banks but months of saturated ground pushing water into whatever sits lowest. Much of the housing is newer, which does not keep a crawl space dry.

Crews dispatch 24/7 from our Vancouver base at 5305 NE 121st Ave, #316 and cover all of Salmon Creek — one local team, no subcontracted call centers. See all services in Salmon Creek or read more about fire & smoke damage restoration.

Our Process

  1. 1

    Initial Assessment and Boarding Up

    Our team arrives quickly to inspect the site, assessing damage comprehensively. We secure the property with board-ups and roof tarping to prevent further exposure to elements.

  2. 2

    Soot and Smoke Cleanup

    Using chem sponges, we meticulously clean smoke residue. Adjusting our approach to the type—whether wet, dry, or protein smoke—is crucial for effective results.

  3. 3

    Deodorization and HVAC Cleaning

    Deploying air scrubbers and hydroxyl generators, we neutralize smoke odors. HVAC systems are cleaned to remove contaminants, ensuring fresh air circulation throughout your home.

  4. 4

    Structural and Contents Cleaning

    We use advanced methods for structural cleaning, applying stain-blocking sealers on affected surfaces. Contents are packed, inventoried, and cleaned, salvaging what can be saved.

  5. 5

    Restoration and Final Assessment

    Once cleaning and repairs are complete, a final inspection ensures all restoration meets our high standards. We also assist with completing insurance documentation for your peace of mind.

We Work With Your Insurance

Our crews document everything — photos, moisture readings, and a clear scope of work — in the format adjusters expect, and we communicate with your insurance company throughout the job. Salmon Creek homeowners always know what is happening and what their policy covers before work begins.
