Even as the fire is put out and much of your home is saved,
disaster tends to leave various traces behind. Take smoke, for instance.
Complete combustion produces carbon dioxide, light, and
heat, though this process is impossible in most conditions due to certain
variables. As a result, fire generates a variety of products in addition to
soot and ash. If the fuel source is wood, for instance, the smoke will contain
even more substances such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and heavy metals.
Smoke may clear out, but the resulting smell permeates
walls and settles on furniture, giving your home that toxic odor. Depending on
the fuel involved, some types of smoke may leave visible smudges on surfaces.
Meanwhile, the oxygen content of the fire determines whether or not smoke will
be difficult to remove.
Soap and water alone won't be enough to remove the smell
coming from smoke. For this reason, fire damage restoration contractors use
certain types of eco-friendly equipment and materials.
With an expert on board, scorch marks and odors don’t stand
a chance. A service-oriented fire damage remediation company can also help you
obtain assistance from your insurance provider to ensure you have all the
resources you need to restore your home to its prior state.
