Our Soot Removal Process

Identify the soot. Different fires leave different residues, so we check what we're dealing with first
Dry cleaning first. Loose soot is removed without water so it doesn't smear into the surface
Surface-by-surface cleaning. Walls, ceilings, cabinets and fixtures get the cleaning method each material needs
Contents. Salvageable belongings are cleaned; damaged items are documented for your insurance claim
Odor treatment. Air scrubbers and deodorization remove the smoke smell soot leaves behind

Soot, Smoke and Water Together

Most fires leave three problems at once: soot, smoke odor and water from firefighting. We handle all three, so the drying, cleaning and deodorizing happen in the right order.

Soot Removal Questions

Soot contains fine particles and chemicals from whatever burned, so avoid breathing it in or spreading it around. Keep children and pets out of affected areas until it's cleaned.

Oily soot from plastics and synthetics smears with water or a damp cloth. Dry removal first, then the right cleaner for the surface, keeps it from setting in.

Many hard items can. Porous items like upholstery and mattresses depend on how heavy the soot is. We clean what can be saved and document the rest for your claim.
