SERVPRO Evaluates Residues Left in Brockton Houses After Fire and Smoke Damage for Better Results

Although the intensity and duration of fire are crucial determinants of the outcome, other factors can influence the level of damage you have to fix. The types of contents in the house can produce smelly, hard-to-clean residues, thus lengthening the cleanup operations or hamper salvage efforts.

Contents are made from various materials, including organic, synthetic, and inorganic materials. The challenge during fire restoration in Brockton residences is likely to be higher if there is a higher percentage of synthetic materials like plastics and others, producing wet smoke residues that adhere to surfaces. Eliminating the stench from a property after such a fire is also challenging. Older or unfinished wood surfaces are also challenging to clean because of their porous nature and roughness.

SERVPRO technicians perform various tests to identify residues and thus choose appropriate methods to remove them. For instance, blast cleaning, with a medium like dry ice or soda helps remove wet smoke residues fast or clean unfinished surfaces during:

• Fire damage restoration
• Fire and smoke damage
• Smoke remediation
