We’ll be able to reduce costly fire and smoke damage to your building.

Smoke Damage Can Be Cleaned Up

Your house can receive serious soot damage without a major fire breaking out. If you don’t act quickly, closed fireplace flues and small-scale kitchen fires can cause discoloration and significant odors. Unless you address the problem immediately, the smell of smoke can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here are a few tips on how to quickly cleanup any smoke damage:

  • To stop smoke from spreading, turn off your HVAC system.
  • To suck out smokey air, put large fans by open doors and windows.
  • Vacuum up soot and ash by holding the nozzle right above the soot. Pressing down could create stains.
  • Wipe down countertops and furniture with a rag.
  • Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from walls and ceilings and use a vinegary spray to get rid of stains.
  • Clean every item in your house that has been affected, including 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.
