Smoke Damage and Odor Removal
Seeing the fire on your property extinguished is a relief, but this will not put an end to the damage. After the fire is extinguished, the corrosive byproducts created by the fire, including soot, smoke, and residue, will continue to spread throughout the property and cause additional damage. Building materials and objects affected by these materials will experience discoloration and etching and this damage is likely to become permanent without quick and effective restoration. Our technicians use highly effective cleaning products that can remove damage caused by soot and oily residue from affected objects and building materials.
Smoke odor is another issue that is common in the aftermath of a fire. The odor from smoke is pervasive and it gets absorbed in porous materials and air spaces as it spreads throughout the property. The only way to effectively eliminate smoke odors is to remove the odor particles at their source. At RestorationMaster, we can thoroughly eliminate smoke odors from your property using advanced equipment and deodorization techniques.
If your home or business in the Maple Grove and Brooklyn Park, MN area has been damaged in a fire, do not hesitate to contact RestorationMaster at (952) 592-1103 for fire damage repair.
Our staff is ready to take your call 24 hours a day.
