How Do You Clean Up Fire Damage?

Fires in your home also bring water damage too. It is a mess of soot and melted cooking items. No one wants to deal with that, but if it happens to you, it must be dealt with quickly. Soot travels with air conditioning and the wind if you open windows. Take these first steps to limit damages.

1. Box items that you want to keep without being tempted to start wiping off the soot. You can, actually, push the soot deeper into cracks and crevices.
2. Not all fires are the same. Protein fires and plastic fires are different and create different soot. Limit time in a fire damaged area.
