During the cold months, who doesn’t love to light a big fire to warm the home? What we don’t realize is that soot from that fire can damage our furniture, ceilings, walls, etc. Soot is a black powdery or flaky substance consisting of amorphous carbon.

There are two types of smoke, dry and wet. Dry smoke comes from burning paper and wood. Wet smoke comes from burning plastic and rubber. Hot smoke travels to cooler areas and can damage different rooms of your home.

Call a professional company to help with the cleanup and restoration process. One of our Fire Production Technicians will test the soot to determine the type of smoke and soot damage. They will proceed with a cleaning plan based on the pre-testing results. Our crew has the expertise, equipment, and training required to restore any kind of soot and smoke damage.

If you have any questions about soot, smoke or fire damage call us today at 404-378-9998.
