Smoke Damage Cleanup
Smoke is often harder to remove from an environment than soot and ash. Smoke removal is the most important part of the fire damage restoration procedure, because it quickly permeates all over the house with different types of smoke gravitating to different parts of the house. This makes smoke removal very difficult and can only be handled by an expert smoke removal company. If this excess smoke in the air is left untreated, it can linger on in the environment over weeks and months, contaminating the air inside with toxic elements that affect the health of those who live in the house.
One of the first things that a smoke removal company will do is to test the smoke to identify the type of smoke, thereby understanding the area of migration. For instance, hot smoke quickly moves to the upper part of the structure and the cooler regions of the property. It gets transferred through plumbing pipes to get access to all parts of the property. This kind of smoke is very hard to control and requires specialized smoke removal process knowledge. Different types of smoke behave in different ways. For instance, dry smoke is caused by fire that burns hard and fast while wet smoke is indicated by low heat and a sharp pungent odor. Identifying the types of smoke is important part of the smoke removal process.
After the identification of the types of smoke, your smoke removal contractor will then begin to use specialized processes to remove all traces of smoke from your property. A process called thermal fogging which involves opening the pores of the walls to let out smoke is made use of. If your walls have insulation, these might have to be replaced, because the smoke odors are retained in the insulation padding.

I would like to schedule an assessment and cleaning estimate for a unit in a fourplex that I own. The tenants that vacated the unit were heavy smokers. The property manager had the unit professionally cleaned, new carpet installed, and new paint on the walls, ceilings, and trim. However, the cigarette smell is still noticeable. The painter did not wash the walls or ceilings before painting and did not apply any primer. We used a chlorine dioxide fogger which reduced the smell. Thanks.

Had a heavy smoker in a 1 bedroom unit in a multi-unit building and the odor spread throughout the building. Need an estimate to remove the smoke odor and clean the furniture in the unit as soon as possible. Thanks.
