Smoke remediation can indicate many of our professionals' steps to overcome unfavorable conditions after a fire. Area homes can be overwhelmed by soot or even water damage from extinguishment, yet a harsh malodor is one of the largest obstacles to restoring comfortable living conditions.

Identifying Malodors of the Property

The first step in this aspect of fire damage restoration for Slidell homes is determining the focal point of the smell and where specific actions are possible to reduce the severity of harsh odors. Pre-job scoping identifies where deodorization and emergency services are necessary.

Cleaning and Counteracting Strategies

Among the first steps that our SERVPRO team can take is to remove debris and charred/blistered elements from the damaged area that can amplify offensive smells. Even efforts to begin cleaning and clearing soot and smoke residues from materials and surfaces can reduce the severity and presence of overwhelming odors throughout the house.
