Fire Damage Can Be Remediated
Everyone knows how destructive fire can be in a house. However, there are many elements of fire, including smoke and soot, that are just as harmful.

Damages to your precious possessions can be devastating. That’s why our fire repair specialists are here to help. Each Paul Davis franchise offers 24/7 emergency smoke remediation services. Contact us immediately, so we can lessen costly fire and smoke damage to your house.
How Can I Repair Fire Damage?
Your building 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 strong odors. Unless you address the problem immediately, smoke can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here are a few ways to move fast and cleanup any smoke damage:
- Shut off your AC to stop smoke from spreading.
- To push out smokey air, position large fans towards open doors and windows.
- When vacuuming ash and soot, hold the nozzle right above the soot to suck it up. Pressing down on the soot could create stains.
- Wipe down countertops and furniture with a rag.
- Wipe away soot from ceilings and walls with a dry sponge and get rid of stains with a vinegar spray.
- Clean any item in your house that has been affected, such as light bulbs.
- Deep wash or dry clean any curtains or clothing that were affected.
- Use odor counteractants to deodorize carpets and window coverings.
