Professional Fire Damage Remediation Makes All the Difference in Middletown

Whether the fire that starts in your Middletown home seems small and quickly contained or large and raged through a significant portion of your dwelling the next step is the same. You need to engage the services of a reputable disaster remediation company, one that specializes in fire remediation but also offers a full spectrum of services. Our team of managers and IICRC-trained technicians are up to any tasks needed.

Fire damage in your Middletown dwelling might seem minor or be catastrophic, but either way, our seasoned employees evaluate every space in the house. The residues fire creates can spread far from even a smaller blaze. Failing to investigate for damage throughout the entirety of the building places building materials and contents at risk of progressive deterioration. The smoke and soot that moves inside your home deposit highly corrosive substances that discolors surfaces, tarnishes metal, etches glass, and destroys wood and cellulose-based materials.

SERVPRO crews evaluate the characteristics of the soot soiling surfaces and decide what types of cleaners, tools, and methods to use to remove it. Ashy paper and wood-based soot vacuums and dry sponges up well. Thick, sticky soot from burning fabrics, plastics, and electrical cords needs wetting agents and surfactants to loosen the grime and agitation to eradicate it. Protein-based soot responds to solvents, its thin, varnish-like coating hard to dislodge without abrasive action.

When charring is deep, we might need to remove some building materials before final restoration. When it is light or moderate, deep cleaning including scraping down a few layers can reveal satisfactory results. SERVPRO also searches for charred bits everywhere in your home, especially in hidden cavities, because failing to remove even small remnants of the fire causes odors to linger.

Deodorization of your home is essential regardless of how large or small the original fire. SERVPRO technicians master a multi-step protocol that eventually eliminates the smell of the fire residues. If deep cleaning and debris disposal does not rid your home of odors, we consider using advanced technology like thermal foggers, ozone machines, or hydroxyl generators. This equipment works in different ways to chemically change the odor-bearing particles, rendering them neutralized and scentless.
