Fire restoration is not only removing smoke and soot damage but also cleaning water damage left behind by the efforts to put the fire out.

SERVPRO Details the Fire Damage Restoration Process  

The occurrence of fire damage incidents causes a lot of disruption and losses. There is also the emotional toll that any property owner in Cutler Bay is likely to experience when the unfortunate event occurs. Fire restoration is not all about removing the smoke and soot particles that settle on items after the fire. There are specific steps to follow when dealing with such issues for a successful restoration. 

Fire damage events in Cutler Bay require you to remain calm as you work with restoration service providers like SERVPRO. When our technicians are working for you, they first determine the degree of the damage before they can start to clean the soot and smoke particles on the walls. It is a detailed inspection that uses specialized tools together with IICRC recommended procedures. 

When putting off the fire, water and fire suppressants are typically used. Our technicians understand that the stagnant water may create conditions for mold growth and, as a result, drain it immediately. After removing the water, we perform deodorization that neutralizes any existing odors. Where necessary, our SERVPRO team ventilates the area to address the odor situation.

Sometimes, when our SERVPRO technicians perform restoration procedures, they come across preloss conditions that existed before the fire. For instance, the areas that might be having pre-existing soiling will need cleaning. We readily clean such areas and remove any visible mold growth during the restoration. We only require you to remove your jewelry, ammunition, guns, and any other personal items before we can start our work. Where necessary, we perform move-outs in an attempt to prevent your contents from further damage. 

Our technicians always observe safety measures when working for you. For instance, when performing thermal fogging, we ensure that pets and everyone leave the site. We also put on protective gear to prevent any possible irritation when spraying some of the deodorants.

SERVPRO of Cutler Bay works around the clock to control any mold, fire, water, and storm disasters. Call us at (305) 278-8484 when you need to work with a trusted leader to restore your property.
