Fire & Water - Cleanup & Restoration

We Had a House Fire, How Does Cleanup Work?

8/18/2020 (Permalink)

You can trust that your home is in very capable hands with the skilled and highly trained experts at SERVPRO.

SERVPRO Assesses the Fire Damage and Formulates a Plan for Restoration of Your Lockport Home.

While there are several ways to handle the cleanup after a fire in your Lockport home, calling in the help of IICRC-certified technicians ensures you get the best results. At SERVPRO, we have highly-trained fire and smoke restoration technicians (FSRT), and We are Faster to Any Size Disaster. This ensures you get help quickly so that your routine may resume faster than any DIY methods could ever achieve.

Our Expert Restoration and Clean Up Process

Once you call us for help with cleaning up fire damage in Lockport, our team arrives to begin the assessment process. A few of the mitigation efforts that occur shortly after our initial scoping of the project will include:

  • Removal of charred debris and unsalvageable building materials and contents
  • Total surface cleaning
  • Dry vacuum methods
  • Water extraction to handle moisture left after extinguishing the flames
  • Soot and ash removal

What Can I Do About the Awful Odors?

With any house fire restoration project, deodorization is critical. Even with the smallest fire, odor molecules can leave a lingering reminder of the blaze. Burning odors and smoke residue can intensify without proper mitigation practices, such as surface cleaning and debris removal. Once we handle the initial cleanup, our SERVPRO crew utilizes a range of deodorization techniques while using equipment such as:

  • Thermal fogging technology
  • Hydroxyl generators
  • Odor neutralizing pellets
  • Ozone generators, and more

Should there be a great deal of smoke and soot throughout your HVAC system, our team utilizes sealants to limit the spread of odor-causing particles. We also use sealants on walls to keep lingering odors from becoming a reminder of the fire incident.

SERVPRO of Eastern Niagara County is available 24 hours a day if you are faced with fire damage to your home. You can reach us by calling (716) 694-7776, and we send out a team as soon as possible.
