Repair Fire Damage

Your house can receive serious smoke damage without a major fire breaking out. If you don’t act quickly, small-scale kitchen fires and closed fireplace flues can cause discoloration and significant odors. Unless you address the problem immediately, smoke odor will seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here are a few ways to move fast and cleanup any smoke damage:

  • Turn off your air conditioning to stop smoke from spreading.
  • Put large fans by open windows and doors to suck out the smoke.
  • When vacuuming ash and soot, hold the nozzle right above the soot to suck it up. Pressing down on the soot could cause stains.
  • Use a rag to clean hard surfaces.
  • Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from walls and ceilings and get rid of stains with a vinegar spray.
  • Clean every item in your home that has been affected, including light bulbs.
  • Dry clean or deep wash any curtains or clothing that were affected.
  • Use odor counteractants to deodorize carpets and window coverings.
