Fire Damage Cleaning in your Smyrna Home’s Bathroom

7/6/2020 (Permalink)

We are highly trained professionals ready to handle any size fire disaster.

Our highly trained SERVPRO team is here to help Smyrna residents with fire damage restoration after fires occur in the bathroom.

Smyrna residents rarely have house fires, but when they do, they can be costly. Most of the fire damage calls here at SERVPRO of South Cobb are small and typically contained in the home's distinct rooms. 

As fire damage restoration professionals, our job is to get your home back to a healthy state while removing all unwanted signs of fire damage. Soot damage that has covered the walls and any burning plastic will be difficult to remove. To make our life easier, we have created a tool bag with specialized tools to make the fire clean up easier. 

Fire Damage in Smyrna Bathroom 

When you first suspect that your Smyrna bathroom has suffered from fire damage, make sure to call 911 as quickly as possible. Once the firefighters have put out fire damage, we will come in and assess the damaged bathroom. Most of the time, we find that the walls, ceiling, shower doors, and vanity require the most cleaning after the fire damage. To make the situation more manageable, we will handle all of the damaged contents in the bathroom to prepare for the restoration work.  

Bathroom Restoring 

Restoring a bathroom after a fire occurs will make the homeowner feel safe by leaving your bathroom very clean. If you aren't aware, soot clings to anything that it touches, making it difficult to use the bathroom without getting black residue on your skin. If the soot damage in the bathroom is not taken care of, you will find your daily routines difficult. Every time you shower, it is possible you will have to do your best not to spread the soot onto other parts and contents of your bathroom.   

Before starting the bathroom cleaning, we will remove all of the toiletries and any cosmetic equipment that is present. Then we will begin removing all damaged materials in a double-bagged trash bag to make sure that no other contents in your home don't get damaged from soot. 

In severe damage to the bathroom flooring, we will have to remove all of the flooring materials. Soot is challenging to remove from any carpeting and may cake into vinyl flooring.

After we finish the initial cleaning and removal of all the damaged materials, we will deodorize the bathroom with hydroxyl generators. This process may take over a few hours, depending on how bad the smoke smell has settled. 

Our SERVPRO professionals hold certifications from the IICRC to ensure that your bathroom fire damage is getting the most effective and safe fire clean up methods of getting rid of the soot. We have specialized equipment and top of the line cleaning agents to remove the soot greasiness from all damaged materials entirely.
