Airborne Threats After Fire Extinguishment in Newport Residences

Circulating particles and odors can create a volatile environment. Emergency services often involve creating a safe and stable atmosphere in the house. HEPA 500 air scrubbers use membrane filters to trap hazardous particulates, ash, and soot. These efforts can also help in reducing harsh odors. 

How Can Soot Get Removed Fast from Newport Properties?

Removing soot and smoke residues is a necessity of fire damage restoration in area homes. Aerosolized solids can form a thick soil deposit on surfaces when these particles come to rest on contents and building materials. A combination of dry and wet cleaning practices is often necessary to eliminate soot and its threat to the house. 

Does Smoke Remediation Remove Odors from Newport Homes?

Odors can be one of the most challenging aspects of returning a property to pre-fire conditions. Simple surface cleaning is rarely sufficient to tackle harsh odors in the house, requiring both counteractant products and deodorizing equipment.

Our Fire Restoration Process

Every fire damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.

Step 1: Emergency Contact

We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week. When you call, one of our representatives will ask a series of questions about the fire damage to your home or business. This information helps us respond immediately with all the needed equipment and resources.

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

We carefully inspect and test adjoining rooms of your property to determine the extent of the fire, smoke, and soot damage. This step is crucial to developing a plan of action.

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service (if needed)

In many fire damage cases, it’s necessary to board up missing windows and walls and to place tarps on a damaged roof. This helps to maintain security and to protect against further damage. 

Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)

The water removal process begins almost immediately and removes the majority of the water. We then use dehumidifiers and air movers to remove the remaining water and complete the drying process. 

Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces

Your property’s ceiling, walls, floors, and other surfaces will likely have smoke and soot residue. We’ll use specialized cleaning products, equipment, and techniques to properly clean your home or business. 

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

Any restorable items will be cleaned and sanitized. We’ll use a variety of specialized cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. Our professionals will also remove smoke and other odors using advanced air scrubbing equipment and fogging devices with deodorizers.

Step 7: Restoration

Restoration is the final step—getting your home or business to its pre-fire condition. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet; or it may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
