There was a fire in a trash can (which was wicker) in a bedroom. The floor and wall were damaged. The fire was put out without water. The room was smoke filled and still has a heavy odor. This occurred yesterday.

I would like to schedule an assessment and cleaning estimate for a unit in a fourplex that I own. The tenants that vacated the unit were heavy smokers. The property manager had the unit professionally cleaned, new carpet installed, and new paint on the walls, ceilings, and trim. However, the cigarette smell is still noticeable. The painter did not wash the walls or ceilings before painting and did not apply any primer. We used a chlorine dioxide fogger which reduced the smell. Thanks.

Smoke Damage Cleanup
Eliminating soot and dash is just half of the job - the real challenge in fire damage restoration comes in the form of smoke removal. Smoke in a fire behaves in strange ways -- certain types of smoke gravitate to one part of the house while smoke of another composition will move to another part of the property. A thoroughly experienced smoke damage company will be able to use special techniques to determine the right amount of product needed to remove all these traces of smoke. A smoke removal contractor can make sure that the indoor environment of the house is back to its normal levels.
Cleaning up the smoke will begin with identifying the kind of smoke that has been produced in the fire. This will help your smoke removal company to understand the migration process of the smoke. Hot smoke usually moves to cooler upper parts of the structure, and makes its way to the parts of the house through plumbing pipes. This makes this sort of smoke harder to eliminate. It's marked by low heat, produces smoke that harder to clean and pungent in odor, while fast burning fire produces dry smoke. Only a smoke removal company will be equipped to identify these various types of smoke, and determine the best process for elimination.
Once all types of smoke are identified, your smoke reamer company will begin the process of smoke removal. A process called thermal fogging is used to eliminate smoke orders. If the walls have insulation, this might have to be removed in order to eradicate the odor. The insulation cannot be retained because it will still have the odor and will have to be replaced instead. Only a professional smoke removal company can help you with such specialized processes. We can help you hook up with such experienced smoke repair company in Memphis.
