Hiring SERVPRO Ensures That All Restoration Tasks Are Taken Care of by One Professional Team
Cleaning your property after a fire incident is a crucial step since smoke spreads residues all over the house. The residues vary, ranging from dry to wet or greasy soot. You can get better results if a professional service provider cleans your house after fire damage.
The cleaning processes needed after fire damage in Northampton homes can be separated into several individual tasks to understand better what it takes to restore the preloss conditions. SERVPRO has seasoned fire restoration technicians who can provide a clear breakdown.
Typical cleaning tasks that your home might need include:
- Appliance cleaning
- Books and artworks cleaning
- Cleaning fabrics and fibers
- Cleaning wooden items
Each cleaning task presents a set of challenges requiring the right skills and other resources such as equipment or cleaning products. Our SERVPRO restoration teams present an advantage since they include highly trained technicians who readily adapt to each task.
When cleaning appliances, it is essential to protect electrical components. Therefore methods that over wet the items, such as immersion or pressure washing, are not viable options. Luckily the items are constructed with non-absorbent materials like plastic, metal, glass, and composites, so damp wiping can help eliminate most soils from their surfaces. In case of significant soiling, disassembly may be necessary to inspect and clean internal components.
Another challenging task is cleaning books or artworks since they are paper-based, so most cleaning processes can easily damage them. The items might also be damaged by many aspects of the fire incident, including moisture, firefighting chemicals, heat, or soot. Our SERVPRO technicians help with sorting and cleaning.
