SERVPRO Uses Regular or Advanced Approaches to Restore Properties After Fire Incidents
Whether your Amityville property is partially or vastly affected by a fire, action is necessary to restore various contents and structural materials to their preloss state. Alternatively, intervention may be essential to halt the deterioration of various materials. The effort you put in might be wasted unless you take the correct action.
You may expect fire damage restoration at your Amityville home to take complicated procedures, especially if it is the first incident you have ever dealt with. However, restoration involves many everyday actions. The only difference is the intensity levels needed or the timing required. When trained Fire Restoration Technicians from SERVPRO take over the renovation of your property, you have the assurance that all necessary equipment and procedures are available to address the damages.
Essential fire restoration takes:
- Cleaning various areas
- Drying wet materials
- Deodorization
- Organizing items
As the flames consume materials, smoke soils what is left or not reached by the fire. Therefore, you should prepare for extensive cleaning. When our SERVPRO teams visit your property, one of the early steps we take is to trace the residue spread patterns, especially on surfaces such as walls and ceilings. Residues can range from the visible dark soot and ash to the invisible but pungent wet smoke residues.
Various cleaning procedures are necessary to eliminate all the soils, including:
- Dry cleaning through brushing and vacuuming
- Wet cleaning with pressure washers and roto brushes
- Specialized cleaning through soda or dry ice blasting
You may not associate moisture with fire damage. However, procedures like firefighting and cleaning introduce moisture at the loss site, affecting fabrics, paper, and wooden materials. The combination of moisture and fire residues can also cause or worsen odors. Drying materials to protect them from moisture damage and to manage odors is necessary. Our SERVPRO technicians use different approaches, including setting up low airflow dehumidifiers to manage moisture.
