How Can I Clean Up Fire Damage?

Smoke damage can occur without a major fire breaking out in your house. If you don’t start cleaning immediately, closed fireplace flues and smaller kitchen flare ups can cause discoloration and strong odors. It’s best that you address the problem immediately. Otherwise smoke odor will soak into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here’s how you can quickly cleanup any smoke damage:

  • To stop spreading smoke, shut off your AC.
  • To suck out smokey air, put large fans by open windows and doors.
  • Vacuum up soot and ash by holding the nozzle right above the soot- pressing down could cause stains.
  • Wipe down countertops and furniture.
  • Wipe away soot from ceilings and walls with a dry sponge. Meanwhile, get rid of stains with a vinegar spray.
  • Clean any household item that has been affected, including light bulbs.
  • Deep wash or dry clean any curtains or clothing that were affected.
  • Use odor counteractants to deodorize window coverings and carpets.
