Fire Damage to Your Contents

When there is a fire in your home, not just the area where the source of the fire occurred, such as the kitchen or living room, is affected. Smoke and soot will distribute throughout the entire area, affected clothes in closets, furniture in other rooms, and even carpet far away from the actual fire. SERVPRO of Southwest Dallas has technicians trained in fire and smoke restoration, and they use the proper equipment, techniques, and chemicals to get the job done. Ozone machines and hydroxyl generators can help dissipate the odors left behind after a fire by changing their molecular structure. Hot water extraction methods are used for cleaning porous surfaces, such as furniture and carpets. Special detergents are used for cleaning clothing that was affected. Dry sponging and specialized alkaline cleaners are used for miscellaneous items, such as lamps and televisions, in order to remove soot that has collected.
