When Smoke Gets in Your Air Ducts, SERVPRO of St. Clair Shores Restores Your Home from Fire Damage.
Holidays often mean more cooking, more cleaning and more people – meaning that you pay less attention to any one task. Attention lapses and cooking is not a safe combination.

If your home needs cleaning and other restoration after a fire from any cause, call SERVPRO® of St. Clair Shores as soon as it’s safe. Disasters do not take time off for holidays, weekends, or odd hours, so neither do we. Our emergency services are available all day, every day, so don’t worry about calling. We promise to be Faster to any size disaster at any time.

Fires are fast and scary! They’re a great example of adding “insult to injury” because the residue such as smoke and soot and other consequences such as water and mold from firefighting efforts add more damage that continues long after the flames are extinguished. Even small fires that are contained on top of the stove can cause house-wide damage. Call SERVPRO of St. Clair Shores for after-fire cleaning and restoration as soon as you can go back into the property. Even if you didn’t need to call firefighters or leave the house, the damage can be surprisingly tenacious.
The Do-it-Yourself (DIY) Approach is Not Always the Fastest or Least Expensive
Cleaning up after fire damage requires more than scrubbing off soot stains. For one (horrifying) thing, the stains can reappear soon after you think you’ve gotten rid of them because smoke and soot particles are traveling through the air ducts and with the air currents. For another, improper removal can embed soot, smoke, and mold (or other microbial growth) into materials; making the damage worse is not what anyone intends. Finally, you need to find and remove hazards that are in either unexpected places (far from where the flames originated) or are in places that are difficult to access (attics, crawl spaces, air ducts, for example).
