Smoke damage can occur without a major fire breaking out in your building. Closed fireplace flues and small-scale kitchen fires can cause discoloration and significant odors if you don't act quickly. It's best that you address the problem immediately. Otherwise smoke odor can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here are a few ways to move fast and cleanup any smoke damage:- Turn off your AC so smoke won't spread.
- Put large fans by open windows and doors to push out the smoke.
- When vacuuming ash and soot, hold the nozzle right above the soot to suck it up. Pressing down on the soot could cause stains.
- Use a rag to wipe down countertops and furniture.
- Wipe away soot from walls and ceilings with a dry sponge. Meanwhile, use a vinegary spray to get rid of stains.
