Smoke Damage Can Be Remediated

Everyone knows how destructive fire can be in a building. However, many people don’t realize that fire has other harmful elements.

At Paul Davis, every one of our franchises offers 24/7 emergency smoke repair services. Contact us as soon as you can. We’ll be able to reduce the cost of fire and smoke damage to your home.

Smoke Damage Can Be Cleaned Up

Your home can receive serious soot or smoke damage without a major fire. Smaller kitchen flare ups and closed fireplace flues can cause discoloration and strong odors if you don’t start cleaning immediately. Unless you address the problem immediately, smoke will seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here’s how you can move fast and cleanup any smoke damage:

  • To stop smoke from spreading, turn off your air conditioning.
  • To push out smoke, position large fans towards open doors and windows.
  • Vacuum up ash and soot by holding the nozzle right above the soot. Pressing down could cause unwanted stains.
  • Clean hard surfaces.
  • Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from ceilings and walls and get rid of stains with a vinegar spray.
  • Clean every item in your home that has been affected, including light bulbs.
  • Deep wash or dry clean any clothing or curtains that were affected.
  • Use odor counteractants to deodorize window coverings and carpets.
