Your home can undergo serious soot or smoke damage without a major fire. Closed fireplace flues and small-scale kitchen flare ups can cause discoloration and strong odors if you don't act quickly. Unless you address the problem immediately, the smell of smoke can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here are a few ways to quickly cleanup any smoke damage:- Shut off your HVAC system to stop spreading smoke.
