What Happens During a Fire

(713) 966-6064

Fires can wreak havoc on homes and buildings, spreading destruction in minutes, even covering the entire home with black smoke and soot residue. While extinguishing the flames is the first step on the road to recovery, there is much work to be done to have it restored.

 

The Effects of Property Fires

When smoke is produced from the flames, it can penetrate through almost any building material, spreading throughout the entire property structure. In this process, all surfaces are covered in a layer of thick, oily residue that will require professional products to remove properly. But action must be taken quickly before these byproducts settle and cause etching and tarnishing.

Any humidity present in the property can also cause corrosion. If this isn’t enough, a powerful odor will be left behind once the smoke dissipates, sinking into all porous surfaces and giving them a revolting smoke smell.
