I have a I have a duplex with heavy fire damage how I calculate the repair cost? Should I multiply price per sqt ft x 2?

Depending on the damage, a good soda blasting will remove a lot of the soot, char and odor. I used to do this work and it was way better than just a spray and seal. This can be way more cost effective than calling a smoke and fire restoration contractor that is used to just trying to max out the insurance. Then you just have a rebuild to estimate. I don't know current costs or your area, so I would suggest a google search for a local company.
