Tips for Fire and Smoke Damage

Here are some of our favorite pieces of advice for making the most of your situation while you wait for professional assistance. We do not recommend taking DIY steps for fire damage cleanup. This is because you run the risk of breathing in toxic by-products, or injury from hidden structural issues. Even a small fire can turn into a costly repair job if not handled correctly and carefully.

What To Do to Prepare for Fire Damage Clean up

If the temperature is above 60 degrees Fahrenheit, open doors, and windows to let fresh air circulate.
Swap out the air filter on your furnace if yours uses forced air.
Capture loose soot particles by taping damp cheesecloth over returns and supply registers.
Turn the electricity off, clean out the inside of your refrigerator and leave the doors open for airflow.

What Not To Do

Do not touch anything with your bare hands, even if you’re cleaning things, because the oil from your hands can cause additional damage.
Do not use any electrical appliances for cleaning or any other use until they have been examined.
Do not attempt to wash the walls, or clean flooring, unless you have training in the correct ways to do so.
