Fire Damage Restoration in Huntington, IN
When a fire occurs, the flames may be extinguished before they can spread too far, but the smoke and soot created in the process can cause additional damage for days afterward. Even during the fire, the smoke and soot can burn, a process known as chemical burning, pitting, or etching. When these byproducts come into contact with building materials, they will cover them in a thick, oily residue that can ruin them unless they are treated immediately.
The property will also be filled with a potent smoke odor that will require professional hydroxyl and ozone technology in order to be fully removed. Finally, personal contents can become damaged in the process, facing the risk of loss until they are treated with professional cleaning agents.
