SERVPRO - Restoring Pearl River Homes With Fire Damage

Located right on I-59, Pearl River is an excellent place for residents who enjoy the grace of a small town but still want the benefits of nearby, more prominent communities. Regardless of where any Louisiana native lives, though, the threat of a house fire is common to us all.

Fire damage to a Pearl River home can run from minor smoke damage to significant damage to a structure like half the roof and the support beams underneath it. Much of what SERVPRO does to restore a home usually involves a combination of demolition and removal, cleaning, and restoration of structural property.

To start, we remove any items physically damaged by the heat and flames and dispose of them. If that includes ceiling tiles, floorboards, and paneling, our crews can quickly tear out these building materials with minimal effect on the rest of the home.

As crew members remove the damaged items, one of our inspectors examines the exposed sub-floor, wall framing, and overhead supports. Usually, there is minor physical damage, but smoke and soot residues cover everything.

SERVPRO technicians use an extensive inventory of cleaning agents designed to remove residues safely. That includes wood, fabric, marble, metal, and even glass without scratching or otherwise harming the surface of the item crew members work to restore.

When the residues penetrate deeply into an item, our personnel use an ozone generator to break down and remove the odors. The device generates ozone gas which can penetrate as deeply as the odor. The gas reacts with the odor-causing particles, changing them and eliminating the odor.

After removing the odors and residues, crew members quickly get to work on the restoration. Our professionals can promptly lay new flooring, replace ceiling tiles, and hang new paneling. If desired by the homeowner, we can even apply a fresh coat of paint to make the house a home again.
