One of the most detrimental disasters a property can go through is a fire. They occur in the blink of an eye and can cause extensive damage. Unfortunately, the damage does not stop even after the flames have been put out. It is important to seek restoration for fire-damaged properties right away. Smoke, soot, and other corrosive byproducts from burnt synthetic materials will cause more damage, including tarnishing and etching. Our fire damage restoration services at RestorationMaster help homes and businesses affected by fires in Commerce City, CO.
Most building materials and objects within a home or business are made using synthetic materials. When these materials are burned, they produce chemical emissions that will continue to spread even after the fire has been extinguished. Chemical emissions and soot cause damage by tarnishing and etching various surfaces such as brass, aluminum, carpeting, marble, tile, etc. Unless the damage is restored in a timely manner, the tarnishing and etching will become permanent. Our professionals will help by repairing and restoring the damaged structural furnishings, elements, and other objects.
Our complete fire damage restoration services include the following five steps:
- Emergency pre-cleaning
