What to Do in the First Hours After a Fire
The damage from a fire continues long after the flames are put out. Soot, moisture and open walls and roofs can make the damage worse with every passing hour. That is why Hartland, WI property owners are urged to call a restoration team as soon as it is safe to do so, because the first day often decides how much can be saved.
Fire Damage Flint answers emergency calls day and night, and aims to get a crew to the property within about an hour. For Hartland, WI homeowners and business owners, that means the structure is secured, the roof is covered and standing water is removed before the situation can get any worse.
Smoke, Soot and Odor Removal Done Properly
Smoke behaves differently depending on what burned. A kitchen grease fire leaves a sticky protein film, while burned plastics and electrical fires leave a dense, acidic soot. Technicians who serve Hartland, WI properties test the residue before cleaning so the right treatment is used on each material, so walls, ceilings and fixtures are not damaged by the wrong product.
Odor is the part most people underestimate. Smoke particles settle into drywall, insulation, upholstery and HVAC ducts, so surface cleaning alone will not remove the smell. Professional crews use air scrubbing with HEPA filtration, deep odor neutralization and duct decontamination so your Hartland, WI property smells fresh and is safe to breathe in again.
