SERVPRO equipment ready for action. Fires produce enormous amounts of smoke and soot damage when a fire occurs. SERVPRO techs are trained and ready for the job.

SERVPRO Capitalizes on the Four Elements of Cleaning to Simplify Restoration of Mt Airy Properties

Fires produce considerable amounts of residues, which are deposited on surfaces all over your home. Therefore, you have a substantial cleanup task after the fire is put out. Cleaning all the items can take considerable effort and time, especially if you do not know how to deal with different residues.

Although residue deposit is one of the better outcomes you have to deal with after fire damage at your Mt Airy property, using the wrong cleaning approaches can increase the challenge or lead to permanent damages. When SERVPRO technicians handle the cleanup of fire-damaged contents or structural materials, we manipulate four elements to simplify the process:

  • Temperature
  • Agitation
  • Time
  • Chemical action

Agitation is any physical action that removes residues from surfaces. Unless we determine residues can be easily wiped off, we combine physical agitation with another factor like chemical action by incorporating a professional cleaning product. We can also boost the cleaning agent's effectiveness by giving it more dwell time or heating the cleaning solution to promote the chemical action that removes residues. When correctly balanced, the four aspects simplify cleaning.
