FIRE, SMOKE AND SOOT
Mitigation, Clean up and Restoration
Smoke contamination can vary in nature, ranging from wet and greasy to dry, with numerous harmful residues due to the different materials burned. Fire restoration involves addressing both structural damage and ongoing contamination, as well as eliminating lingering odors. As smoke and soot settle on surfaces, it’s essential to conduct a thorough cleaning using the appropriate chemicals and materials to restore the property effectively.
​
The intense heat from the fire, along with the toxic and corrosive residues it leaves behind, can have lasting effects on the property. Without prompt remediation, the presence of ash, soot, and smoke can cause prolonged exposure to harmful pollutants and respiratory irritants, impacting the health and safety of anyone inside.
Professional Fire Damage Restoration
Fire and smoke restoration is a complex process that demands a unique skill set. It involves a deep understanding of smoke behavior during a fire, the potential health risks from lingering chemical residues, and the impact on the building structure. Many contractors mistakenly attempt to clean components that have been permanently damaged by chloride or acid exposure, which can lead to unnecessary increases in claim costs for insurers.

We are one of the leading fire damage restoration companies in South East QLD. We can back this up with over 25 years experience.
Key Steps in Professional Fire Damage Restoration
-
Emergency Response & Assessment
Rapid response is crucial after a fire. Restoration professionals assess the extent of fire, smoke, and soot damage to develop a tailored restoration plan. -
Securing the Property
To prevent further damage or theft, technicians board up windows, tarp the roof, and stabilize the structure if needed. -
Smoke & Soot Removal
Specialized equipment and techniques are used to clean walls, ceilings, and surfaces affected by smoke and soot, which can cause long-term damage if left untreated. -
Odor Elimination
Fire often leaves behind strong, lingering odors. Restoration teams use industrial-grade air scrubbers, fogging machines, and ozone treatments to fully neutralize smoke smells. -
