Soot Damage From Fire

Restoration costs increase and damages escalate when the cleaning process is extended.

 It is important to have professionals who are certified at your home quickly after a fire to stop further damage and begin the remediation process.

What happens only minutes after the disaster?

Immediately after a fire, soot residue settles onto the property. Discoloration of porous materials is permanent, but other surfaces may be properly cleaned to remove the discoloration. Acidic soot begins staining other surfaces if not treated quickly.
