Fire & Smoke

The fire is out. Now there is soot on every surface, smoke in every soft material, water from the hoses, and an open building. Onyx secures it, cleans it, dries it and rebuilds it.

Mold Remediation

Black spots on drywall, a musty basement, a closet that never dries. Onyx finds the moisture feeding the mold, contains the area, removes the growth and the material it lives in, and fixes the cause so it stays gone.

Storm Damage

A storm took shingles, a tree took part of the roof, or wind put a branch through a window and now rain is coming in. Onyx tarps, boards up, dries the interior and rebuilds.

07

Rebuild & Remodel

The drying is done, the mold is out, the soot is cleaned. Now there are open walls and bare subfloor. Onyx rebuilds what was removed, and if you want the kitchen or bath done better than before, this is the moment.

08

Commercial

A flooded warehouse floor, a fire in a grocery store, a burst line over an office lobby. Every hour closed costs money. Onyx mitigates, cleans and rebuilds commercial spaces and plans the work around your operation.

09

Biohazard & Crime Scene

After a crime, an injury or an unattended death, the police and the coroner leave. The cleanup is left to the family or the property owner. Onyx takes that off your hands, quietly and completely.

Hoarding Cleanup

Whether it is your home, a parent's house or a rental you manage, Onyx clears it out, cleans it and repairs what is underneath. No judgment and no lectures.

Why a restoration company instead of a handyman

A leak that looks dry on the surface is usually still wet inside the wall. Painting over it grows mold and voids the chance of a clean claim. Restoration means measuring where the water went, removing what cannot dry, running equipment until readings hit dry standard, and keeping a photo record at every step.

Onyx does the mitigation and the rebuild. You are not coordinating a dryer, a demo crew and a contractor who all blame each other.

Where we work

Philadelphia city, including South Philly, Fishtown, Kensington, Northern Liberties, Port Richmond, Germantown, Manayunk and Roxborough. Bucks County, Montgomery County and Delaware County, PA.

South Jersey or Wilmington, DE: ask us. We will tell you straight whether we can dispatch to your address.

How it goes

What happens after you call.

  1. Call

    Tell us what happened and what you can see. We tell you what to shut off, what to move and what to leave alone.

  2. Assess and document

    We inspect, meter, photograph and map the damage. This becomes your scope and your claim file.

  3. Mitigate

    Extraction, containment, demo of unsalvageable material, drying or cleaning depending on the loss.

  4. Verify

    Meter readings, not the calendar, decide when drying is done. Mold and smoke work is inspected before closing up.

  5. Rebuild

    Drywall, flooring, trim, paint, cabinets. The same company that took it apart puts it back.

Used Onyx to clean out mother in laws house after she passed. This was by [no] means a simple clear out. They did an absolutely amazing job! Job was finished when promised. I can’t say enough good things about the owner Jose and his team. Would definitely recommend this company.
