SERVPRO Says--Call Us to Stop Foul Smelling Odors After a House Fire

Smoke Odors and Residues Require Professional Teams for  Cleanup and Restoration

While some other types of fire damage in Belmont can be restored with minimal training and specialized equipment, certain elements of most fires necessitate the use of an advanced specialist company like SERVPRO. Smoke damage is one such element, creating challenging conditions that can grow drastically worse if the restoration professionals apply incorrect treatments. Without our expertise and guidance, you may deal with these effects of smoke damage long after the disaster that first caused them.

Smoke Odors
One of the most odious signs of past fire damage in a Belmont home can be the smell of smoke in the air. Eliminating the smell of smoke from a room and area can be difficult without the aid of specially-made fogging machines that mimic the spread of smoke particles to eradicate them in all corners and reaches of your home. Standard cleaning solutions fail to reach into materials and tight spaces like a deodorizing fog, making elimination of smoke smells a difficult task without heavy equipment. In fact, impossible.

Lingering Residue
Different types of smoke produce various types of residue that can sometimes mix or layer on top of one another to create further problems. These residues often manifest as thin layers of transparent or lightly colored material that may be sticky, slimy, or waxy to the touch. SERVPRO technicians use industrial cleaning solutions formulated to our industry-leading standards to eliminate these residues more thoroughly than standard cleaning products can.

HVAC Damage
Some fires may cause significant damage to a home's heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems by dumping smoke particles and residues into their sensitive filters and passageways. SERVPRO is a certified HVAC restoration and cleaning company that can help to take care of any smoke materials trapped in ductwork in your home. Without careful attention, smoke here can distribute odors over time and possibly facilitate mold growth in the HVAC system.

SERVPRO of The Lakes Region provides expert fire damage mitigation and restoration services to local homeowners in need. Call us 24/7 at the first sign of trouble at (603) 527-2518.
