Smoke and ash damage in homes that did not burn is scoped to the HVAC, insulation and surfaces the smoke reached. Desk estimates that treat it as a cleaning line understate it.
Recent storm history
The January 2025 Palisades and Eaton fires destroyed thousands of homes across Pacific Palisades, Malibu and Altadena and are now the reference loss for the region.

Los Angeles estimating FAQ
- Which Xactimate price list do you use for Los Angeles claims?
- The current month's Xactimate regional price list for the Greater Los Angeles market. Using the same list the carrier's adjuster uses is what makes line-item pricing hard to dispute at review.
- Do you serve all of Los Angeles, Ventura, Orange counties?
- Yes. Estimating is remote, so the same team and turnaround cover every address in Los Angeles, Ventura, Orange and the surrounding communities: Pasadena, Altadena, Pacific Palisades, Malibu, Santa Clarita and more.
- How much does a Los Angeles estimate cost?
- $50 per claim estimate, and the first one is free. Monthly plans for teams sending claims every month are quoted by our sales team.
- Can you help with supplements and adjuster follow-up?
- Yes. Claims management is a core service: supplemental estimates with photos and code references, and follow-up with your public adjuster through the insurer's review. California's deadlines run from proof of claim and from acceptance. Document each supplement with photos and a dated cover letter so the insurer's 40-day clock is on the record.
