Smoke Damage Can Be Cleaned Up

Smoke damage can occur without a major fire breaking out in your home. Smaller kitchen fires and closed fireplace flues can cause discoloration and significant odors if you don’t start cleaning immediately. It’s best that you address the problem immediately. Otherwise smoke odor can soak into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here’s how you can move fast and cleanup any smoke damage:

  • To stop spreading smoke, shut off your HVAC system.
  • Move large fans towards open windows and doors to fan out the smokey air.
  • Vacuum up soot and ash by holding the nozzle right above the soot- pressing down could cause unwanted stains.
  • Use a cloth to clean hard surfaces.
  • Wipe away soot from walls and ceilings with a dry sponge. Meanwhile, get rid of stains with a vinegar spray.
  • Clean every item in your home that has been affected, including light bulbs.
  • Dry clean or deep wash any clothing or curtains that were affected.
  • Deodorize window coverings and carpets. We suggest that you use odor counteractants.
