How Can I Repair Fire Damage?

Fire can cause significant damage to a home. However, many people don’t know about the other harmful elements of a fire. The smell of smoke can overwhelm your home and possessions and soot can seriously damage walls that weren’t burned by flames. Fires can be damaging to both to your family and your house.

Damages to your cherished keepsakes can be devastating. That’s why our fire repair experts are here to help. At Paul Davis, each of our franchises offers 24/7 emergency smoke remediation services. Contact us immediately. We’ll be able to lessen costly fire and smoke damage to your home.

Fire Damage Can Be Cleaned Up

Your home can receive serious smoke or soot damage without a major fire breaking out. If you don’t start cleaning immediately, small-scale kitchen flare ups and closed fireplace flues can cause discoloration and strong odors. It’s best that you address the problem immediately. Otherwise the smell of smoke can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here’s how you can quickly cleanup any smoke damage:

  • To stop smoke from spreading, turn off your air conditioning.
  • Put large fans by open windows and doors to push out the smokey air.
  • Vacuum up ash and soot by holding the nozzle right above the soot- pressing down could cause unwanted stains.
  • Use a cloth to wipe down countertops and furniture.
  • Wipe away soot from ceilings and walls with a dry sponge, while using a vinegary spray to wipe away stains.
  • Clean every item that has been affected, such as light bulbs.
  • Deep wash or dry clean any clothing or curtains that were affected.
  • Deodorize window coverings and carpets. We suggest that you use odor counteractants.
