Post-Fire Wall, Ceiling, and Cabinet Washing Services in Austin, MN

Cooling Down the Chaos in Your Home

Fire damage leaves marks that go far beyond what you see on the surface. Soot clings, smoky odors linger, and residue works its way into wood, paint, and surfaces. Washing your walls, ceilings, and cabinets after a fire is a big step toward bringing your home back to normal.

When a fire affects your home, ServiceMaster by Rice - Austin is here to help families recover with heart and skill. Austin is all about looking out for each other, and we bring that spirit, along with our fire cleanup experience, to every home. Post-fire cleaning is serious work, but the right team guides you through it with reassurance and hope.

Clear the Air and Breathe Easy

The effects of a fire can stick around in every corner of your home. Left unchecked, soot and smoke can stain surfaces, damage materials, and make the air hard to breathe. Those tiny soot particles can irritate your lungs and spread farther than you might expect. Our team carefully removes smoke and soot, helping your home smell fresh and stay comfortable. Bring calm and control into your space after a fire.

Fresh Walls, Ceilings, and Cabinets Ahead

Soot, smoke, and residue can show up in unexpected places throughout your home. Smoke rises, leaving ceilings with the heaviest stains and odors. Walls catch oily soot that clings tightly, and cabinets, especially in the kitchen, can trap both smoke and grease. Regular household cleaners usually can’t take on all of this. It takes the right tools and spot-on cleaning to properly restore these surfaces.

Washing your walls, ceilings, and cabinets turns fire damage into a fresh start. Colors pop, smoky smells dissipate, and your home returns to a cozy atmosphere. Watch professional cleaning revive the livable space you’ve been missing.

From Soot to Sparkling with Our Cleaning Process

Soot, smoke, and residue can sneak into every part of your home. Our process is designed to completely remove it, making your walls, ceilings, and cabinets look like new.

1. Assessment and Planning: We start with a detailed walk-through. We identify soot type, smoke trail patterns, and material composition to choose the safest and most effective cleaning approach.
2. Containment and Protection: We protect unaffected surfaces, seal off areas that need work, and lay down protective coverings so your home remains organized.
3. Dry Cleaning and Soot Removal: Some soot responds only to dry-cleaning methods. We use sponges designed for restoration work and equipment that removes residue without smearing or grinding it into surfaces.
4. Wet Cleaning and Surface Restoration: After dry cleaning, we apply cleaning solutions chosen specifically for your walls, ceilings, and cabinets. This step removes oily film, sticky residue, and soot stains without damaging paint or wood finishes.
5. Deodorization and Air Quality Improvement: We bring in equipment such as HEPA air scrubbers and targeted deodorization tools to reduce lingering smoke odors. These methods work at the particle level to clean the air and surfaces.
6. Detailing and Final Check: We finish with a thorough inspection. Every cleaned area is checked for residue, so you are not left with surprises later.

We chase out the soot so your home can glow again.

Beating the Burn and the Elements

Winter and weather conditions in Austin can make post-fire restoration trickier.

• Cold Winters: Chill slows drying times, traps moisture behind walls or ceilings, and can reveal issues like frozen pipes during cleaning.
• Snow and Ice: Exterior work can be delayed, so interior cleaning must be precise and well-timed.
• Humidity: Damp air makes soot from fire damage stick more aggressively and causes smoky odors to linger longer.

Rain, snow, or humidity, we handle it all so your home stays in top shape.

Caring for Austin’s Classic Homes

Older homes have character you can’t replicate. Original wood cabinets, plaster walls, and vintage finishes give each space its charm, but they also need special consideration after fire damage. Modern cleaning methods for new builds can be too harsh for these historic details.

At ServiceMaster by Rice - Austin, we tailor our approach to your home’s age, materials, and distinctive features. Every wall, ceiling, and cabinet gets the attention it needs to hold its beauty for years.
