Soot and Smoke Damage Cleanup

When a fire breaks out, it’s not just the flames that destroy your property — soot and smoldering debris can seep into carpets, upholstery, walls, and drapes, causing discoloration and corrosion if it isn’t cleaned up immediately. Our technicians can clean these objects with powerful chemical cleaners to make sure they look as good as new.

Fire damage can also leave your property with lingering smoke odors that are difficult and expensive to eliminate. As soon as the fire has been fully put out, we’ll begin working to remove the smoke and odor from your property. Our advanced deodorization techniques including hydroxyl deodorization, ozone treatments, and HEPA filtration are proven effective for removing lingering smoke odors from porous building materials and furnishings.

"Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Clint and his team were AWESOME!!! He was very considerate of my time and space. I was very frustrated when he arrived & when he left I felt happy and relieved that my issue was resolved! He made sure to clean everything with non-toxic chemicals so that my kids would be safe, he explained everything he was doing and executed it perfectly. I had a leak in my ceiling and sewage water everywhere. He put in the time and hard work to disinfect, clean, and dry everything throughly. He was quick, efficient, and respectful! I would definitely recommend his services to anyone who has an issue in their space. Thank you Clint."

"Our technician Alec came in and re-padded the carpet that had been torn up last week due to water damage. He was so friendly and talkative, and worked very quickly to get the job done! In and out within 30 minutes so that I could get on with my day. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Alec!"

"After our apartment flooded on Chirstmas Eve, we were worried about dry wall repairs and patches, and disgusted by the stench. NuEra handled our dry wall replacement and patching and our carpets. We didn't get a business card from the man who worked on our walls and ceilings, but he did so without his partner that day. We are so grateful! After the drywall repairs, our carpets were cleaned so thoroughly and efficiently. Alex treated the carpet and scrubbed it out well before applying the deodorizer and scrubbing that in. He even got out a bright yellow stain from the water that had leaked in. It's such a relief to no longer live in a stinky apartment! Alex and Nick were wonderful! Thank you so much!"
