Smoke Damage Cleanup

A situation this comes up in

A fire is contained to one room but smoke travels through the HVAC system and leaves a film throughout the house.

How we handle smoke damage cleanup

• Assess smoke type since wet, dry, and protein smoke each need different cleaning agents
• Clean hard surfaces room by room, working from ceiling down to floor
• Treat HVAC ducting to stop residue from recirculating
• Test cleaned surfaces before moving to contents cleaning

As with every job under our fire damage restoration services, we start with an on-site assessment before committing to a scope, and we document the damage thoroughly from the first visit so the work is backed by photos and readings if you need them for an insurance claim.

Why this matters more than it looks like at first

Smoke Damage Cleanup is often the step homeowners underestimate, either because the visible damage looks manageable or because the underlying cause isn't obvious yet. Our technicians are trained to look past the visible surface and check for the conditions that caused the problem in the first place, since fixing the symptom without addressing the cause tends to mean doing the job twice.
