Fire disasters are always a nightmare, and no one wants to experience them. However, they are a common occurrence in Columbus, and all are encouraged to handle them correctly. The causes of fire disasters are many, and as much as you protect yourself, you may find a situation where you need a fire damage restoration service.

Fire damage in Columbus is a pretty big deal, and you may be in need of SERVPRO services to help you restore your property. After the occurrence of such a catastrophe, the resulting soot and smoke are some of the challenges to expect. You need to do some work if you need your property restored to its earlier state.

Structural cleaning is one of the first steps after a fire damage incident. The carpets, floors, ceilings, and walls also need a thorough cleaning. Your structure has different kinds of surfaces that need specific cleaning products and equipment. At SERVPRO, a team of highly trained professionals can carry out an assessment and determine the precise tools necessary for restoring your property. To make sure the new paint sticks to your walls, wiping down and prepping must be done correctly.

At that time, you have to restore some of the damaged components and material through professional deodorization and cleaning. Some of the areas to be restored include upholstery, furniture, area rugs, and draperies. The cleaning process requires different methods, and assessment is done to determine the right procedure to use. SERVPRO can offer pack-outs to store and clean items off-site, ultrasonic cleaning and Esporta machine washing. All methods are available to fit the needs of the cleanup and restoration.

Fire usually leaves offensive odors to your structure and deodorization is necessary. Using air fresheners or any fragrance is not recommended. Masking noxious odors is not a permanent fix. Go ahead and identify the source of the smell and get rid of it. Several deodorization methods do exist, and they require specific equipment that needs proper handling by trained technicians. Thermal fogging allows the counteracting agents to follow the paths of the fire thus routing out and neutralizing the odors left behind.
