FIRE DAMAGE CLEANUP
Cleaning Fire, Smoke Damage and Smell after a Fire
 
A house fire is a tragedy no one should have to face, but accidents happen. When they do, there are certain things to remember when cleaning fire, smoke damage and smell after a fire. 911Restoration wants you to know what to do after a house fire. 911Restoration compiled some fire cleanup information on what to do after a house fire and before we arrive:
 
  1. After the firefighters leave, quickly determine if you can do any fire & water clean-up work yourself and always exercise caution.
  2. Call your insurance agent immediately so the damage can be documented and professionally repaired. Once the damage has been assed by your insurance agent, you'll still have a mess on your hands, but you can begin a moderate fire & water clean-up and fire damage recovery prior to our arrival.
  3. Open windows and doors so fresh air can circulate through the house and dissipate the smell of smoke. Use a room deodorizer to mask the smell until it's gone.
  4. Clothing, carpets and other furnishings will more than likely require professional cleaning to eliminate the smoke odor.
  5. Use a regular dry sponge and pine-scented cleaner (do not use household cleaners on these surfaces). Wipe the ceiling first, since debris tends to drop downward. Then work on the walls, moving from top to bottom using straight, parallel strokes that overlap.
  6. Try to remove all the soot. The more you get rid of, the faster the smoke smell will dissipate. When the surface of the sponge becomes sooty, simply skim it off with a knife to give the sponge a new cleaning surface.
