Time is of the Essence When Dealing With Smoke Damage

Other smoke damage includes glass etching, tarnished metal, and damage or corrosion to various materials throughout your property. That is precisely why it is crucial to promptly contact a professional restoration company after experiencing a fire.

  • Utilizing advanced chemicals that break down smoke molecules, effectively eliminating odors before dry cleaning your clothes.

Tips to Minimize Soot and Smoke Damage

In addition to contacting ServiceMaster Recovery Services for professional assistance with your home's restoration, there are measures you can take to minimize damage to your property:

  • If the temperature permits, air out your house to reduce smoke odor.
  • Regularly change the air filter on your forced hot air furnace.
  • Avoid touching any damaged areas with your hands, as the oils from your skin can further permeate walls, woodwork, and upholstery, exacerbating the damage.
  • Refrain from washing the walls, as it can compound the soot residue.
