Addressing the Simple Challenges Arising after Fire Damage in Your Arizona City Home

Fire incidents are very destructive and leave trails of financial and sentimental loss in their wake. Apart from the major losses, fire incidents can also pose several challenges that make it difficult to reclaim the affected property. Hiring a professional to help you restore fire damage is one way to overcome the simple challenges.

Lighting the Work Areas

If the fire damage in your Arizona City home is significant, it is likely to affect power cables and lighting fixtures. Even if not damages, it might not be advisable to switch on lights after a fire because of the risk of shorts. Since some parts of the house might not be well lit from natural light, you need other sources of illuminations. Our SERVPRO technicians use various types of temporary lighting fixtures for illumination and safety. They include:

• Stand Lights
• Wobble Lights
• String Lights
• Bulb Cages or Guards
• Getting Rid of Smoky Odor

Cleanup Protocols and Methods

Restoration of fire damage involves several cleanup steps. However, even after cleaning surfaces, clearing debris and removing all residues, the smoky odor might persist. Although it is a simple problem, it can make the house uncomfortable. Our SERVPRO technicians use different deodorization procedures to remove such odor. We can fog the area using specialized equipment such as ULV foggers, which atomize the deodorizing agent. Fogging replicates the characteristics of smoke, allowing the deodorizer to penetrate materials and neutralize odor particles. We can also use hydroxyl generators, which chemically alter odor particles neutralizing them.

Corrosive Residues

You might notice surfaces changing color or rusting after an incident of fire damage. Such issues affect stone surfaces such as marble and metallic ones such as doorknobs. Soot and other smoke residues have corrosive properties, which cause such changes. If left unaddressed, the changes can become permanent. Our SERVPRO technicians take different steps, including pre-cleaning the affected areas and applying oil-based products to protect the materials before full cleaning.

Fire creates severe as well as simple problems. Call SERVPRO of Casa Grande at (520) 421-1894. We can ensure it's, "Like it never even happened."
