SERVPRO Uses the Latest Techniques and Products to Mitigate the Damages from Smoke and Fire
The smoke and soot after a fire can leave the contents of your fire-damaged home in a total mess. If the residue after a fire is not promptly cleaned, it can lead to permanent damage to surfaces including the walls, ceilings, and floors as well.
Luckily, here at SERVPRO, our IICRC certified professionals employ some of the most advanced cleaning methods to restore the damage to your Delta home after a fire. Here are some of the techniques that the professionals can use to clean up after a fire incidence.
Dry cleaning
If the residue is dry and non-grease based, dry cleaning is perhaps one of the best methods to clean it up. It is usually the first step in cleaning the damage after a fire incidence. Feather dusters and dusting cloths are often used in this method. The professionals can also use vacuuming to remove any loose debris from surfaces during this procedure. This helps to prevent smearing and staining.
Wet cleaning
It is a more aggressive cleaning technique that involves the use of water with or without detergent. SERVPRO Technicians can use this method to clean moderate to the heavy residue. The method is also useful for grease-based soot as well using proprietary cleaning agents.
Spray and wipe
As the name suggests, this technique involves the spraying of a cleaning agent and wiping it down with a piece of cloth. As the cleaning agent is spayed in the form of missed, the restorer has more control over the amount of the cleaning agent when employing this method. Spray and wipe is an excellent method for services surfaces that cannot be saturated by a cleaning agent.
Foam cleaning
In this method, a cleaning foam is used to clean the surfaces. The technique is most commonly used to clean upholstery and fabric that can be damaged by other cleaning agents. Phone cleaning is best if the residue is light and the material is delicate. This is almost a moisture-free method for cleaning.
Abrasive cleaning
This method involves the use of an abrasive agent to clean the surfaces. It is not suitable for the delicate material. The abrasive pads can cause damage to the surfaces if not correctly used. In the case of charred attics, a soda or ice-blasting can be utilized to minimize time and mess.
