Smoke damage can occur without a major fire breaking out in your building. If you don't start cleaning immediately, closed fireplace flues and smaller kitchen flare ups can cause discoloration and significant odors. It's best that you address the problem immediately. Otherwise the smell of smoke will soak into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here's how you can move fast and cleanup any smoke damage:- Turn off your air conditioning so smoke won't spread.
- To suck out smokey air, move large fans towards open windows and doors.
- Vacuum up ash and soot by holding the nozzle right above the soot- pressing down could create unwanted stains.
- Clean countertops and furniture with a cloth.
- Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from walls and ceilings and use a vinegary spray to wipe away stains.
- Clean any household item that has been affected, such as light bulbs.
- Dry clean or deep wash any clothing or curtains that were affected.
- Use odor counteractants to deodorize carpets and window coverings.
