Smoke damage restoration is a meticulous process that goes far beyond scrubbing surfaces. It requires expertise, advanced techniques, and a comprehensive understanding of the unique characteristics of different types of smoke residues.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s dive into the details of smoke damage cleaning and restoration.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_image=”6334″ bg_position=”left top” background_image_loading=”default” bg_repeat=”repeat” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”3%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” color_overlay=”#ffffff” overlay_strength=”0.5″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-5-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”bottom” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”11878″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”5px” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”25″][vc_custom_heading text=”Smoke Damage Cleaning: Not All Smoke Damage Is Created Equal” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%231e2939″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”3%” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]Before we start the restoration process, it\u2019s good to know that smoke damage varies in severity and characteristics. The kind of smoke damage you\u2019re dealing with depends on what kind of fire your property has suffered.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”3%” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Dry Smoke” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%231e2939″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Dry smoke results from fast-burning fires with high temperatures and oxygen-rich environments. It produces fine, powdery residues that are usually dry and easy to clean. However, dry smoke can penetrate porous materials and may require specialized cleaning techniques to remove. Materials commonly affected by dry smoke include wood, fabric, paper, and synthetic materials.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”3%” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Wet Smoke” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%231e2939″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Wet smoke occurs from slow-burning fires with low heat and smoldering conditions, often producing thick, sticky residues. Wet smoke has a strong odor and smudges easily when touched, making cleaning more challenging. It often contains a high concentration of aerosols and can discolor surfaces and leave a greasy residue. Materials commonly affected by wet smoke include plastics, rubber, vinyl, and painted surfaces.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”3%” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Protein Residue” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%231e2939″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Protein residues are typically left behind by kitchen fires<\/a> or fires involving organic materials such as meat, fish, or poultry. These residues are invisible and can have a strong, pungent odor. They can be sticky and difficult to remove, often requiring specialized cleaning agents and techniques. Protein residues commonly affect kitchen surfaces, cabinets, and appliances.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”3%” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Fuel\/Oil Residue” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%231e2939″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Fuel or oil residue results from fires involving burning fuels or oils.
