Repair Fire Damage

Smoke damage can occur without a major fire breaking out in your building. If you don't start cleaning immediately, smaller kitchen fires and closed fireplace flues can cause discoloration and strong odors. Unless you address the problem immediately, the smell of smoke can soak into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here are a few tips on how to quickly cleanup any smoke damage:
  • Turn off your AC so smoke won't spread.
  • Position large fans towards open doors and windows to suck 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 cause stains.
  • Use a rag to wipe down hard surfaces.
  • Wipe away soot from ceilings and walls with a dry sponge. Meanwhile, get rid of stains with a vinegar spray.
  • Clean any item in your house that has been affected, such as light bulbs.
  • Dry clean or deep wash any curtains or clothing that were affected.
  • Deodorize window coverings and carpets. We suggest that you use odor counteractants.
