Smoke and soot stains are difficult to remove. SERVPRO is your one-stop-shop for your fire damage restoration needs.

SERVPRO Technicians Have Training for All Sizes of Housefire Cleanup

Even a small fire can drastically alter the appearance of a Fort Lee property. Not only physically, but also with changes to the air quality from soot particles that can be a skin or lung irritant in some individuals. The cleanup needs to address all of those factors. 

Safety is priority one for SERVPRO techs handling fire damage cleanup in Fort Lee properties. The technicians don personal protective equipment and work quickly to remove building materials with unrepairable damage from the fire. This action often assists in dissipating smoke odors in the home. Other typical tasks include:

• Inspection of home contents
• Set up of cleaning stations outside the home
• Odor control
• Sanitizing surfaces

Area rugs and carpeting have the potential to absorb a large amount of soot and still not show much in the way of staining. The SERVPRO crew chief will go over the options with homeowners to remove the soot and smoke damage if the carpet fibers are undamaged by the heat of the house fire. The technicians carefully adhere to the scope of coverage for actions taken during a fire damage restoration job to ensure that they do not do anything without approval or are not covered by the homeowner's policy. This attention to detail eliminates surprise out-of-pocket charges. 

The technicians handle all aspects of a house fire cleanup, and one of the most important is air quality. They use specialized equipment such as air scrubbers to capture airborne soot particles. Their odor control methods take the remaining soot and neutralize them at the molecular level to render their odor-causing abilities inert.
