Seek Help from Professionals for Orlando Fire Damage

Even a seemingly minor fire puts your Orlando home at risk of persistent and permanent harm. The residues and odors left after a blaze are difficult to manage without specialized training. Every fire event presents complexities a layperson cannot fathom. Fortunately, our team of experts are well-trained and bring years of experience to every fire mitigation project including yours.

The first tasks facing our restoration professionals responding to your Orlando fire damage challenge are often water removal and structural drying. Although the prioritization of water mitigation might come as a surprise, when you consider the efforts of the firefighters as they knocked down the flames the ordering of tasks makes more sense. Standing water creates safety hazards and exposes your damaged home to the possibility of severe secondary harm like mold damage. Because water loss mitigation is our other primary focus, we are prepared to start there and then move to fire cleanup.

Fire residues vary depending on the fuel burned. SERVPRO is familiar with evaluating and managing different types of soot as we move from space to space within your home. Wood and paper burn fast and hot, leaving an ashy aftermath that vacuums and brushes away. Protein-based fires in kitchens deposit a thin, hard to remove film with a strong odor. Solvents and abrasive tools might be needed.

Fabric and electrical cord fires coat surfaces in thick, sticky soot. Our SERVPRO technicians use their IICRC training to match cleaning products with the debris encountered. Wetting agents and surfactants loosen this type of soiling, and agitation ensures all layers release for wipe off.

Perhaps the most taxing test of our SERVPRO crew’s abilities is deodorization after fire damage. No matter how clean we leave surfaces and possessions through our efforts, if a smoky odor persists, it is impossible to put the disaster in the past. We use a tiered system of charring removal and deep cleaning followed by the use of various advanced technologies to eliminate the smell. Cover-ups are temporary, but equipment like thermal foggers or hydroxyl generators seek out odor-bearing particles in the air and on surfaces and neutralize them at a molecular level.

SERVPRO of Apopka-Wekiva is ready to assist with all aspects of residential fire damage restoration. Give us a call for a speedy assessment of the damage at (407) 788-3124.
