Fire Damage Can Be Cleaned Up

Your building can receive serious smoke or soot damage without a major fire breaking out. If you don’t act quickly, closed fireplace flues and smaller kitchen flare ups 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 ways to quickly cleanup any smoke damage:

  • To stop spreading smoke, shut off your HVAC system.
  • Put large fans by open doors and windows to suck out the smokey air.
  • Vacuum up soot and ash by holding the nozzle right above the soot- pressing down could create unwanted stains.
  • Use a rag to clean hard surfaces.
  • Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from ceilings and walls and use a vinegary spray to get rid of stains.
  • Clean any item in your home that has been affected, such as light bulbs.
  • Deep wash or dry clean any curtains or clothing that were affected.
  • Deodorize carpets and window coverings. We suggest that you use odor counteractants.
