How Can Soot and Smoke Damage Get Cleaned from Basking Ridge Properties?

It is not uncommon to see many surfaces and contents covered in smoke and soot soils after a fire gets extinguished. We have many wet and dry cleaning approaches to clear these residues and protect the affected surface. 

Can Smoke Odors Be Formidable in Basking Ridge Homes? 

Properties can often be overwhelmed by the spread of odors after a fire damage situation. Combustion of fuels, chemicals, and plastics can create even more volatile aromas than the burning of traditional building materials. Using counteractant products, we can reduce the severity of these smells to make the full deodorization process more efficient.

Can SERVPRO Complete Fire Damage Repairs? 

Damage repairs are not always required, but with structure fires, the probability of needing some form of build-back is high. With our general contractor license and availability, we can begin repairs and reconstruction shortly after fire restoration completes in the house.

Our Fire Restoration Process

Every fire damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.

Step 1: Emergency Contact

The fire restoration process begins when you call us. Our consultant will guide you through the crisis and may ask several questions to help us better understand the type of fire damage you experienced, determining the equipment and resources needed.

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

We determine the scope of the fire and smoke damage by examining the affected areas and by testing the adjoining rooms for smoke and soot damage. An accurate assessment is crucial to the planning process. 

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service (if needed)

Fire damage can often compromise windows, walls, and roofs. To maintain security and to protect against further damage, we can board up missing windows and walls and place tarps on damaged roofs. 

Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)

If needed, we can begin the water removal process with powerful pumps and extraction units. This removes most of the water. We complete the water removal and drying process with industrial-strength dehumidifiers and air movers. 

Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces

Your property’s ceiling, walls, floors, and other surfaces will likely have smoke and soot residue. We’ll use specialized cleaning products, equipment, and techniques to properly clean your home or business. 

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

Any restorable items will be cleaned and sanitized. We’ll use a variety of specialized cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. Our professionals will also remove smoke and other odors using advanced air scrubbing equipment and fogging devices with deodorizers.

Step 7: Restoration

Restoration is the process or restoring your home or business to its pre-fire condition. Restoration may involve relatively minor repairs, such as replacing drywall and painting, or it could include significant reconstruction of entire rooms.
