It is difficult to imagine a natural disaster that is more dangerous and devastating than a fire. Fires can happen for many different reasons at almost any time, and they very quickly damage and destroy much of your property while putting you and those inside at risk for serious injury or death. Evacuating the building and having the fire put out is a huge relief, but the damage in your home or building can get much worse from the remaining smoke and corrosive byproducts. That is why you must call a fire damage restoration professional as soon as possible after the fire is put out. At ServiceMaster by Disaster Associates Inc., we provide complete fire and smoke damage restoration services to help homes and businesses in Peabody, MA recover from the damage of a fire. 
Smoke Damage Cleanup in Peabody, MA
If you have experienced any type of fire on your property, it is important to remember that the damage will get worse after the fire is out. The heat from the fire causes synthetic materials to release corrosive byproducts that along with soot, can cause discoloration and etching of various objects and materials. The effects of soot and corrosive byproducts are likely to become permanent unless the affected materials are treated quickly. The residual smoke is also a potential source of damage as smoke residue is a corrosive byproduct and its odors can get absorbed into porous materials. In many cases of fires, the secondary damage exceeds that caused by the fire itself.
Our technicians at ServiceMaster by Disaster Associates Inc. have dealt with all types of fire damage cases in commercial and residential settings. We use the right cleaning products, equipment, and methods to repair damage caused by the fire and cleanup the effects of soot and corrosive byproducts. We understand that secondary damage from fires spreads quickly and we will arrive as soon as possible after your call to help contain the damage and begin the restoration.
