SERVPRO restoration technicians know that damage increases and restoration costs escalate the longer neutralization, corrosion control and cleaning is delayed. When homeowners prolong the restoration of their home, they extend the effects brought on by smoke exposure. It is important to call SERVPRO as soon as the firefighters are done putting the fire out.
Here are some things to do after you experience a fire. Of course do not hesitate to contact SERVPRO immediately for help.
1. Limit movement in the home to prevent soot particles from being embedded into upholstery and carpets.
2. Keep hands clean so as not to further soil upholstery, walls and woodwork.
3. Place clean towels or old linens on rugs, upholstery and carpet traffic areas.
4. If electricity is off, empty freezer and refrigerator and prop doors open.
5. Clean and protect chrome with light coating of petroleum jelly or oil.
6. Wash houseplants on both sides of leaves.
7. Change HVAC filter.
8. Tape double layers of cheesecloth over air registers
