How SERVPRO Helps: Fire Damage

12/27/2021 (Permalink)

Although after a fire there is no direct emergency to attend the matter, we believe that there is an urgency due to the unsafety regarding the structural damage a fire can cause, along with smoke damage. There are occasions where on top of fire damage, there will be some water damage considering the way the fire was put out. What does SERVPRO of Alexandria do to help Cenla after a fire has been put out? We go through the following steps:

Cleaning

We go through every room and search for soot, which gets cleaned out. Any smoke or flame superficial damage done also gets dealt with by our crew. If the damage is too high, demolition would be the next step.

Demolition

After going through the process of cleaning, there might be some furniture or structure in need to be pulled out, such as carpet, doors, and countertops. Everything that has been so damaged to a point of no return, will be gathered up and reviewed one final time before being disregarded.

Deodorization

After cleaning everything out, and making sure our hard work has been properly completed, we go through this step of deodorization; meaning make it smell good. We take thermal foggers which heat up our oil based scents and keep them there for a bit for the rooms to soak it all up. After a few hours, the property is safe to enter once again. We don’t want your building to smell like fire and smoke when you return, so we do our best to make it breathable. "Like it never even happened."

Our goal is to bring your property back to preloss conditions. At SERVPRO of Alexandria, we understand that there are times where the losses attributed to a fire are tough on our community. We are a respectful team that takes care of these situations with the utmost professionalism. You can count on us to maintain a transparent and honest relationship with you. SERVPRO of Alexandria is here to help Central Louisiana any day, any time.
