Smoke Damage Can Be Cleaned Up

Smoke damage can occur without a major fire breaking out in your home. If you don't start cleaning immediately, closed fireplace flues and small-scale kitchen fires can cause discoloration and significant odors. It's best that you address the problem immediately. Otherwise smoke odor will soak into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here's how you can quickly cleanup any smoke damage:
  • Turn off your air conditioning to stop smoke from spreading.
  • Position large fans towards open windows and doors to fan out the smoke.
  • Vacuum up soot and ash by holding the nozzle right above the soot- pressing down could cause stains.
  • Wipe down hard surfaces.
  • Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from walls and ceilings and use a vinegary spray to get rid of stains.
  • Clean every household item that has been affected, including light bulbs.
  • Dry clean or deep wash any curtains or clothing that were affected.
  • Use odor counteractants to deodorize carpets and window coverings.
