Dealing with Smoke Damage
Time is of the essence when dealing with smoke damage. Smoke can quickly deteriorate your home, discoloring walls within minutes and damaging finishes on kitchen appliances in a matter of hours. Glass may suffer etching, metal can tarnish, and other materials throughout your property may experience corrosion and damage. This is precisely why it is crucial to reach out to a professional restoration company immediately after a fire.

Our meticulous soot and smoke damage cleaning process encompasses various essential steps, including:
- Thoroughly cleaning any accumulated ash residue before it spreads further.
- Effectively neutralizing persistent odors.
- Removing soot, odors, and stains from at-risk items such as tile, porcelain, chrome, brass, aluminum, and marble.
- Professionally cleaning carpets, fabrics, and upholstery.
- Deodorizing curtains and carpeting prior to cleaning.
- Utilizing advanced chemicals designed to break up smoke molecules and eliminate odors, followed by dry cleaning your clothes.
To further minimize soot and smoke damage to your property, we recommend the following tips in addition to seeking our professional assistance:
- If the temperature permits, air out your house to reduce smoke odor.
- Change the air filter on your furnace if you use forced hot air.
- Refrain from touching damaged areas with your hands, as the oils from your skin can seep into walls, woodwork, and upholstery, leading to further damage.
- Avoid washing the walls as this can compound the soot residue and worsen the situation.
