Smoke Damage Can Be Repaired

Your house can receive serious smoke damage without a major fire. Smaller kitchen flare ups and closed fireplace flues can cause discoloration and significant odors if you don't start cleaning immediately. Unless you address the problem immediately, the smell of smoke can soak into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here's how you can move fast and cleanup any smoke damage:
  • Turn off your HVAC system to stop spreading smoke.
  • Move large fans towards open windows and doors to push out the smoke.
  • Vacuum up ash and soot by holding the nozzle right above the soot. Pressing down could cause unwanted stains.
  • Clean countertops and furniture.
  • Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from walls and ceilings, while using a vinegary spray to wipe away stains.
  • Clean every household item that has been affected, such as light bulbs.
  • Deep wash or dry clean any clothing or curtains that were affected.
  • Use odor counteractants to deodorize carpets and window coverings.
