Why You Should Avoid DIY
After a fire, it may be tempting to handle clean-up yourself to save time and money. However, attempting to restore your business without professional help can lead to costly mistakes. Here are a few reasons why DIY restoration is not recommended:
- Health Hazards: Fire damage poses serious health risks. Soot, ash, and toxic chemicals released during a fire can contaminate the air and surfaces. Without proper protective gear and equipment, exposure to these elements can cause respiratory issues, skin irritation, and long-term health problems.
- Hidden Damage: Structural elements, wiring, and HVAC systems can be compromised without visible signs of damage. A professional inspection is essential to identify and repair these hidden issues before they worsen.
- Inadequate Cleaning: Commercial properties have complex systems and materials that require specialized cleaning methods. Without industrial-grade equipment and expertise, smoke odors and soot residue can persist, leading to ongoing damage and an unhealthy environment for your employees and customers.
