During a fire, the flames are what grab attention. They are frightening and immediately destructive. Less immediate is the fire residue: smoke and soot. Smoke and soot are highly corrosive, tend to be greasy, and are usually odiferous (smelly). Smoke and soot keep damaging materials until they are completely removed. Complete removal may be tricky because (a) smoke and soot often end up in places you might not look or cannot access easily, (b) smoke from protein is invisible, so finding deposits takes specialized training, and (c) different combinations of smoke/soot and materials require different cleaning techniques and solutions; horrifyingly, the wrong combination can push the smoke or soot particles deeper into the material. That’s one reason why insurance companies prefer that homeowners hire professional restoration companies, such as SERVPRO of San Diego City SW, to help homeowners restore their property to pre-fire-loss conditions; we are more able to salvage a wider range of belongings and parts of the structure.

Call us at 619-269-5004 as soon as you know the damage is beyond your control.

One of our eternally awesome team members will ask questions about the fire damage; your answers help us figure out which people and what equipment to send to your home.
