Fire Damage Can Be Repaired

Your home can receive serious soot or smoke damage without a major fire. If you don't act quickly, closed fireplace flues and smaller kitchen fires can cause discoloration and significant odors. It's best that you address the problem immediately. Otherwise the smell of smoke can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here's how you can quickly cleanup any smoke damage:
  • To stop smoke from spreading, shut off your air conditioning.
  • Move large fans towards open windows and doors to push out the smokey air.
  • When vacuuming ash and soot, hold the nozzle right above the soot to suck it up. Pressing down on the soot could create stains.
  • Use a cloth to clean hard surfaces.
  • Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from walls and ceilings, while using a vinegary spray to wipe away stains.
  • Clean every item in your home that has been affected, including light bulbs.
  • Dry clean or deep wash any curtains or clothing that were affected.
  • Deodorize carpets and window coverings using odor counteractants.
