Prompt Response Time Can Mitigate Fire Damage in Commercial Kitchens 

An issue that no one running a business in the food service industry wants to deal with is fire damage. Closing your doors temporarily to fix the problem is a loss of valuable business. Without foot traffic, restaurants suffer and can even be forced to go out of business if they are unable to open quick enough. Fortunately, there is help nearby for when these sorts of situations arise.

The longer that the fire damage in your Telluride diner sits unaddressed, the more potential it has to have long-lasting effects. The soot and smoke that is left behind often attach themselves to whatever surfaces that they can reach. In a commercial kitchen, equipment like your stove, grill, dining dishes, prep area countertop, and shelving can all become covered in greasy soot after a small fire. The longer that this soot is left alone to its own devices, the more it has a chance to discolor your property. For example, any plastic cutting boards can become yellow over time; the longer the soot remains in place, the more prominent this color becomes.
 
It is essential to call for help as soon as the fire has been extinguished. The quicker a remediation team can arrive, the more likely it is that a successful remediation can occur. Here at SERVPRO, we make it a priority to get to you fast, no matter the time of day or night. If the fire happens in your kitchen during dinner service, SERVPRO can swiftly get to your property and work through the night to try and ensure that you can open again as soon as possible.
 
SERVPRO can bring advanced trade tools to your eatery to deal with the problems that fire damage causes. Working overnight allows us to bring tools like thermal foggers or even Ozone machines to deal with the malodor left behind. To clean the soot, we can use one of three methods to detach it from the various surfaces of your kitchen: lubricative, abrasive, or chemical cleaning techniques.
