Awesome job on my house gentleman! Always will recommend these folk!
Great company, I highly recommend
Curtis and the team at Millers were great. They responded to my emergency call immediately, and were on site cleaning up the water within hours and restoring a safe living environment. I recommend...
In a rural community like Salem Township, fire crews travel farther, and a blaze near the North Territorial Road corridor or the Worden area can burn longer before it's controlled. That extra time drives smoke deep into framing and leaves soot and stubborn odor throughout the home.
The team dispatched by Millers Restoration of Ann Arbor stabilizes the structure, removes soot, and scrubs the air before packing out salvageable contents for off-site restoration. Near the historic Jarvis Stone School and the Six Mile Road area, smoke odor is neutralized at its source and fire-damaged framing is removed and rebuilt.
A family-owned business since 1974, Millers serves the scattered properties of Washtenaw County near Brookeville with one crew for the whole fire recovery, from board-up through complete reconstruction.

Our in-house crew rebuilds what the fire took, from framing to finish.
Millers responds to fire and smoke damage throughout Salem and Washtenaw County — including these neighborhoods and areas:
After the fire department clears the scene and everyone is safe, call 1-800-645-5377 and avoid disturbing soot-covered surfaces. In a rural township, response can take longer, so smoke may settle deeply. We secure the property and begin soot removal and deodorization.
Smoke and odor can drift into a nearby home through vents, windows, and shared airflow even when the fire is in a separate structure. We assess the house for residue and treat any affected areas. Addressing it early keeps odor from settling in.
Often yes. Older farmhouses have exposed wood and original finishes that can frequently be cleaned and deodorized rather than replaced. We evaluate each surface to see what is salvageable. Materials beyond saving are documented for insurance.
We remove soot from surfaces, treat structural materials, and deodorize with equipment that neutralizes odor at the source. Older homes hold odor in porous materials, so we treat those directly. The goal is a home that no longer smells of smoke.
