Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration in Valley, NE 68064
ServiceMaster Restoration Services
The effects of fire, smoke, and soot can be tremendously devastating in both commercial and residential situations. Fire itself can obviously leave behind a wake of destruction, while smoke and soot can cause etching, discoloration, and more within materials of seemingly unaffected objects.
At ServiceMaster Restoration Services, we understand these behaviors and address them through our fire and smoke damage restoration services. We are proud to work with property owners in Valley, NE.
Damage from Fire, Smoke, and Soot
Before getting into too much detail, the first things you should do in the event of a fire is contact your local fire department and evacuate all individuals. Once this is done, we recommend contacting our ServiceMaster Restoration Services representatives as soon as possible. We are available 24 hours a day, and can respond to emergencies within 2 hours of your call. This access is highly beneficial because minutes can sometimes make the difference between items being fully restored or permanently damaged.
Furthermore, we all understand the devastation that fires can cause; however, smoke and soot can be just as damaging (as can other corrosive byproducts that are created when certain synthetic materials are burned). Etching and tarnishing of aluminum, chrome, and marble, as well as discoloration and corrosion of other materials, is common. Toxic fumes can also be created.
The main issue here is that these elements are airborne, which means they can effortlessly travel throughout your building. Our technicians understand this, and will address it promptly.
