How Can I Clean Up Smoke Damage?

Your building can receive serious smoke damage without a major fire. If you don't act quickly, closed fireplace flues and small-scale kitchen flare ups can cause discoloration and significant odors. Unless you address the problem immediately, smoke can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here are a few ways to quickly cleanup any smoke damage:
  • To stop spreading smoke, shut off your HVAC system.
  • Move large fans towards open doors and windows to fan out the smoke.
  • Vacuum up soot and ash by holding the nozzle right above the soot- pressing down could create stains.
  • Wipe down hard surfaces.
  • Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from walls and ceilings and use a vinegary spray to get rid of stains.
  • Clean every household item that has been affected, including light bulbs.
  • Deep wash or dry clean any clothing or curtains that were affected.
  • Deodorize carpets and window coverings. We suggest that you use odor counteractants.
