The primary types of fire damage to a Myrtle Grove home are from the smoke, soot, and odors left behind after a fire.

SERVPRO Has the Tools to Make Your Fire Damage "Like it Never Even Happened"

Unless a home is caught up in a wildfire from a nearby National Park, most of the damage it suffers can be cleaned using the proper tools. When combined with the cleaning agent appropriate to the type of odor or another residue, the amount of money spent on replacement decreases substantially.

The primary types of fire damage to a Myrtle Grove home are from the smoke, soot, and odors left behind after a fire. To clean and remove them, SERVPRO keeps an up-to-date inventory of the equipment best suited for each level of damage and type of residue. These listed below are just a few of what we have available.

Ozone Generators – These machines put out a series of oxygen molecules that alter airborne, odor-causing molecules. When they meet, oxidation occurs which removes the odor.
Technicians use these machines when an odor is very pungent. Ozone is a powerful gas, so before we begin the treatment, it is necessary to remove all family pets and any item that contains natural rubber. Once we complete the procedure, ozone returns to a normal, oxygen molecule with no residue left.

Pressure Sprayers – These electrically powered devices spray deodorizing agents and other chemical cleaners. With a rate of 50 psi, they are handy for carpets and fabrics coated with heavy soot and smoke residues, as well as structural property that has absorbed a lot of them.

Injectors – These handheld devices use large needles attached to a pump to inject deodorizers into a stain on upholstery and carpets. We prefer this method when possible, as it prevents sending out furniture to be cleaned by other methods and having to lift the carpet to attempt to clean it. Injection of cleaners and deodorizers is much more cost-efficient.

Ventilation Fans – These industrial-sized, box fans serve a dual purpose. In addition to blowing out contaminated air, the high-velocity of the air movement (3000 to 5000 cubic feet of air per minute) is excellent for bringing in outside air to dry property that became soaked from the efforts of the fire department and a home sprinkler system.
