Fire Damage Can Be Cleaned Up

Your house can receive serious soot damage without a major fire breaking out. If you don't act quickly, small-scale kitchen flare ups and closed fireplace flues can cause discoloration and significant odors. It's best that you address the problem immediately. Otherwise smoke can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here's how you can quickly cleanup any smoke damage:
  • To stop spreading smoke, turn off your HVAC system.
  • Move large fans towards open doors and windows to fan out the smokey air.
  • Vacuum up ash and soot by holding the nozzle right above the soot- pressing down could cause stains.
  • Use a cloth to clean countertops and furniture.
  • Wipe away soot from ceilings and walls with a dry sponge, while using a vinegary spray to wipe away stains.
  • Clean every item that has been affected, including light bulbs.
  • Dry clean or deep wash any curtains or clothing that were affected.
  • Use odor counteractants to deodorize window coverings and carpets.
