Post-Fire Cleanup Tips for Homeowners

  • Always call a professional for assistance after a fire. Irreversible etching damage can occur from corrosive byproducts in as little as 72 hours.
  • Air out your home or business if the temperature is above 60 degrees, so you can reduce the smoke odor.
  • Clean chrome, porcelain, formica, and aluminum fixtures & surfaces to prevent permanent damage from etching or tarnishing.
  • If your furnace uses forced hot air, change the air filter.
  • You can capture the loose soot in the air by taping damp cheesecloth over the supply registers & returns in your home.
  • All open food packages should be discarded.
  • If your electricity is off – clean your refrigerator and leave the doors open.
  • Send any clothing with smoke damage to a restoration dry cleaner.

Health and Safety Considerations After Fire Damage

  • Be careful not to touch upholstery, walls, woodwork or personal belongings with bare hands as oil from your hands can cause further damage.
  • Don’t wash your walls. Soot residue can further damage your walls if cleaned incorrectly.
  • Don’t clean upholstered furniture or carpeting.
  • Have all electrical appliances checked before using.
  • If you’re ceiling is wet, don’t use ceiling fixtures.

Effective Smoke Damage Removal Strategies

Smoke damage is a major issue for many homeowners. Whether from an accident or natural disaster, smoke can quickly cause extensive damage to your home. The odor of smoke can be difficult to remove, and the particles that are left behind can cause permanent staining and discoloration of walls and furniture. Fortunately, there are a few ways to clean up after a mild fire and restore your home back to its original condition.

The first step in getting rid of smoke damage is to ventilate the area as much as possible. Open windows and doors if you can safely do so, allowing fresh air into the space. If necessary, use fans to help circulate the air even more efficiently throughout the room. This will help reduce odors while also potentially preventing further discoloration by pulling out any lingering particles from deep within fabrics or carpets that may have been affected by the smoke. Additionally, it’s important to clean all damaged surfaces thoroughly to soot and other debris caused by burning materials such as wood or plastic which often contain chemicals that leave behind residue when burned at high temperatures.

It can often be difficult to clean or even spot the most serious smoke damage, and that can cause lasting damage and persistent smoke odor in the home. That’s why with serious and lasting smoke damage, it’s best to leave it to the experts at ServiceMaster.

Salvaging Your Belongings from Smoke Damage

While smoke damage is serious and can physically break down whatever it touches, several of your belongings can be saved from the effects of smoke damage if treated right away. These include:

  • Hard surface items
  • Upholstery
  • Bedding
  • Clothing
  • Wooden furniture

If not treated right away, the acid that lies within smoke particles can actively damage your walls, floors, furniture and more. Acting fast by calling a professional fire restoration company is the best way to rescue your items.
