Deodorization during Fire Remediation and Cleanup

11/7/2019 (Permalink)

Our team has experience, education and up-to-date industry certifications in the relevant areas of fire and smoke damage cleaning, restoration and deodorization. We provide an up-front strategy to homeowners and business owners outlining how we plan to reach and treat the affected areas. Hot smoke migrates to cool areas and to upper levels of structures, including flowing around plumbing and electrical systems. It takes experience to identify how to access and clean hard to reach parts of a structure without causing additional damage. 

 

In addition to different types of smoke created by the incineration of various items in the home, “protein fire residue” is also created. This protein is not a by-product of the fire, but is instead a result of the vaporizing of household goods above a certain temperature. This unique process creates a virtually invisible layer that adheres to everything around it and produces a strong, unpleasant odor. Our team at SERVPRO of Scripps Ranch/Mira Mesa/Rancho Penasquitos is highly trained and committed to work hard and restore your property or business to its original condition.
