Smoke Damage's Impact on Homes
Fire is very destructive to a home, along with the damages caused by fire, it also brings along smoke damage. It damages surfaces and also causes health problems with bad air quality. It is bad enough to even consider damages done by smoke as a separate category from damages done by fire.
The damage done by smoke often involves the discoloration of surfaces from a layer of soot and has a persistent odor that doesn't seem to go away, and in some cases can be suffocating with prolonged presence in affected areas.
Smoke is the carrier of soot, and soot is mainly carbon powder as a result of burning. When smoke propagates within a home, it can enter very small spaces and cracks such as electrical outlets, spaces between switches. Depending on what was fueling the fire, some smoke can carry melted materials that can be characterized as rubbery, sticky, or greasy.
Types Of Smoke Damage
Different types of smoke cause different types of damages. Often times a burnt structure will be replaced along with the smoke damage it created. But for areas that are not burned down, but affected by smoke may need to be treated depending on the type of smoke damage. Here are a few of the most common types.
Fixing Details Since this does not smear on surfaces when wiped, it is typically easy to clean when visible. The challenge here is being a fine powder, it can fill up gaps, cracks, go between patterns of rough surfaces, that continue to carry the odor of smoke. But any professional restoration company should be able to eliminate the odor well.
Fixing Details If dry smoke damage is one of the easiest to clean, wet smoke damage is the opposite as it is one of the hardest to clean since the residue is thick and sticky. And because of it's stronger odor and difficulty to clean, the odor tends to still linger around even if most surfaces appear to be clean already.
Fixing Details Being greasy, water-based products tend to repel from grease and oil, so special solvent products are used to dissolve the grease for proper cleaning.
Fixing Details Because of permanent discoloration, often times the damage here involves replacement or reconstruction of various house structures or simply repainting these surfaces.

Fast Affordable Restoration Service Benefits
The sooner the restoration process begins, the less likely your property will sustain further damage. Once safe, we recommend that you open all of your windows to begin the process of removing smoke and soot from your house. This is critical since both contain potent and dangerous carcinogens that can have a detrimental effect on your health.
During the fire and smoke restoration process, the power and gas should be turned off until repairs are completed, since broken electrical components provide a risk of shock, and leaking gas can cause further damage.
Fires can compromise the stability of a structure, making it possible for it to fall at any moment. Simply for this reason, skilled, expert restoration services are required to maintain the property's safety.
