Smoke damage can occur without a major fire breaking out in your building. Smaller kitchen fires and closed fireplace flues can cause discoloration and strong odors if you don't start cleaning immediately. Unless you address the problem immediately, the smell of smoke can soak into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here's how you can quickly cleanup any smoke damage:- Shut off your HVAC system to stop smoke from spreading.
- Move large fans towards open doors and windows to suck out the smoke.
- When vacuuming soot and ash, hold the nozzle right above the soot to suck it up. Pressing down on the soot could cause stains.
- Use a rag to clean hard surfaces.
- Wipe away soot from walls and ceilings with a dry sponge. Meanwhile, get rid of stains with a vinegar spray.
- Clean every item in your house that has been affected, such as light bulbs.
- Deep wash or dry clean any clothing or curtains that were affected.
