Candles in Your Stockton Home Can Cause Fires and Hide Odors--Call SERVPRO for Solutions

Odor Control Is Critical for Restoration After Smoke & Fire Damage

Fires are a devastating force, and they are rarely able to be prevented entirely. The destruction they can leave in their wake might not always be the kind that forces you to relocate while serious reconstruction efforts are underway, but they almost always require professional services to restore the damages and mitigate your overall loss from the incident. After a fire to your Stockton home, what should you do next?
 
The first thing that you are going to want to do is assess the fire damage to your Stockton residence and see the total affected area. While this might be an overwhelming task, this is instrumental when you call our SERVPRO team of specialists to have them begin formulating a restoration plan. Pre-inspection on your part ensures that the priorities you determine for more comfortable living in the house happen first.
 
Depending on the size of the blaze, extinguishing efforts can leave water damage to put on top of the evident soot damages lingering foul odors. Fortunately, we at SERVPRO consider all of these central focal areas to be steps in the total restoration of fire damaged homes. We have the tools and equipment to clean your walls, floors, and contents of your home back to a preloss condition.
 
We have deodorizing foggers that can affect the odor molecules left lingering in the air and neutralize them completely. Deodorization happens through the introduction of a dense fog. While this fog itself is odorless, the molecules it contains pairs with the free-floating smoke molecules that are left behind and leave no scent remaining at all. The process does not mask an old smell with a new one, but instead wholly neutralizing the charring and smoke smell at a molecular level.
 
Water restoration efforts are another part of the SERVPRO approach if firefighting efforts have caused problems for your house as well. These issues could be pooled water in specific affected areas or a lingering dampness. Drying and removing the water is an essential part of restoring your home back to preloss conditions, as well as preventing the possibility of mold growth from lasting moisture.
 
While a fire in your home can be devastating, take some of the overwhelming cleanup jobs and put them into trusted hands like our SERVPRO professional technicians. You can reach us at SERVPRO of Stockton anytime at (209) 477-3090.
