When a fire occurs, the flames cause the initial damage as they burn through items and materials in their path.\u00a0 However, the damage does not stop when the fire is out because the smoke and soot that remain after the fire causes further damage. Fires create smoke, soot, and other corrosive byproducts when materials are partially burned.\u00a0 These corrosive byproducts will last after the fire is out and they can cause etching and tarnishing to affected materials.\u00a0 If porous materials, wood and other at-risk items are not restored right away, the damage caused by smoke and soot can become permanent.<\/p>\n

At Water Damage Drying Services, we provide smoke and soot damage restoration and cleaning in Norwich, CT to restore materials affected by these corrosive byproducts.<\/strong>\u00a0 Our technicians use advanced chemical cleaners, chem sponges and processes to effectively treat damaged furnishings and belongings and restore them to their original condition.<\/p>\n

Damage Caused by Smoke and Soot<\/h2>\n

What many people do not realize about fires is that the smoke, soot, and other corrosive byproducts that hang around after the fire is out often cause more damage than the fire itself.\u00a0 This is because these corrosive byproducts will continue to spread and settle throughout the property, including areas that the fire itself did not touch.\u00a0 It is important to start the cleaning and restoration immediately<\/em> after a fire is put out to help limit the damage from smoke and soot, as smoke can discolor walls in just a few minutes and turn appliances yellow within an hour.<\/p>\n

Soot and oily residues are created when burnt materials are partially combusted.\u00a0 The tiny soot particles will settle on various surfaces and objects, causing discoloration and etching.\u00a0 Many materials that are damaged by soot are vulnerable to permanent damage unless they are treated with specialized cleaning processes.\u00a0 You should never try to clean soot damaged surfaces and materials yourself because improper cleaning methods will make the damage worse.<\/p>\n

The smoke leftover after fire damage<\/a> can also cause damage as it can leave behind oily residue and strong odors.\u00a0 Smoke odors are persistent because the odor particles get trapped in porous building materials, carpets, furnishings, and air spaces.\u00a0 The only way to remove smoke odors is to extract the odor particles from the affected areas and materials.\u00a0 It takes professional equipment and deodorization methods to accomplish this.<\/p>\n
