Had a heavy smoker in a 1 bedroom unit in a multi-unit building and the odor spread throughout the building. Need an estimate to remove the smoke odor and clean the furniture in the unit as soon as possible. Thanks.

There was a fire in a trash can (which was wicker) in a bedroom. The floor and wall were damaged. The fire was put out without water. The room was smoke filled and still has a heavy odor. This occurred yesterday.

Whether your fire wreaks havoc and destroys large sections of your premises, or is contained in a single room, there will be a number of layers of damage -- soot and ash, smoke, toxins, - that will have to be individually dealt with to effect a complete fire damage repair and clean up. When you call in a fire damage restoration< contractor, he will first begin to evaluate the nature and extent of damage. He will then prepare a quote for your project, and will go ahead with the project only after he receives your approval.
First, your fire damage repair company works hard to remove all traces of soot and ash from your carpets, and furniture. They will remove soot from electronics on the premises, as well as machinery and gadgets. They will then identify the kinds of smoke that have been produced, and will use special chemicals to neutralize the smoky odors. These smoke removal methods can range from the stripping of insulation from the walls to a process called thermal fogging that opens up the pores of the walls to neutralize the smoke. After this, your fire damage restoration contractor will take the steps necessary to deal with any water related damage to the property as a result of the extinguishing of the fire. Water left standing untouched can lead to mold growth and various other hazards, and must be dealt with as soon as possible. Finally, your fire damage restoration specialist will separate your possessions to two -- those that can be restored and those that are easier to replace. Those that can be restored are sent to special restoration facilities. Your belongings will finally be returned to you after a process of restoration has brought your carpets and upholstery, and other items to their previous state.
