FIRE & SMOKE RESTORATION SERVICE
|
The burning of different materials produces many different
types of smoke deposits, which penetrate into and behind any
area in a property that is not completely sealed. The impact of a wrong approach to smoke damage restoration can, in extreme cases, render a return to pre-incident condition impossible. Our technicians will correctly identify and deal with the various types of soot contamination on both buildings and contents. Smoke comes in four basic varieties:WET SMOKELow heat, smoldering, pungent odour, sticky, smeary. Smoke webs are more difficult to clean.DRY SMOKEFast burning at high temperatures.PROTEINVirtually invisible, discolours paints and varnishes. Extreme pungent odour.FUEL OIL SOOTFurnace / Boiler puff backs cause fuel oil soot. After the type of smoke is identified our technicians will determine the most appropriate course of action required. |
One of the most important elements of their evaluation is what
personal items and structural components can be restored
versus what needs to be replaced. It also helps determine the
most effective cleaning method as well as eliminating needless
replacements. Fire damage restoration requires a combination of cleaning techniques and very close attention to detail. A fast response is critical to minimising the damage caused by smoke contamination - our fire damage technicians can be at a property within hours of notification.
