Watching your home go up in flames is a devastating experience as your home and possessions can quickly become severely damaged. When a fire occurs, your first concern is to evacuate the home or building to prevent injuries or death to those inside. Once the fire is out, you cannot hesitate to call a professional for restoration services. The smoke, soot, and corrosive byproducts lingering after the fire is out can continue to cause even more damage than the fire itself.
RestorationMaster provides fire and smoke damage restoration services in Lincoln, NE to stop the spread of the damage after a fire and rebuild affected homes and buildings. Our technicians use advanced cleaning products and equipment to salvage as much of your home and belongings as possible after a fire.
Damage Caused by the Smoke and Soot
The fire damage restoration process must begin immediately after the fire is out and the fire department clears the property. Smoke, soot, and other corrosive byproducts continue to spread throughout the building. Without proper restoration, they will damage various objects and materials after the fire has been put out. These byproducts will cause corrosion and discoloration of the materials they affect and the corrosive effects will become permanent if the materials are not properly restored.
We use advanced chemical cleaning products that can effectively remove damage caused by soot and corrosive byproducts from a wide range of household surfaces and objects. If the fire has damaged a significant amount of your personal belongings, we provide pack-out services to take your items to our facility for thorough cleaning and restoration.
