Tips Until Help
Quick tips if you are in the middle of a loss:
- If the temperature is above 60 degrees, air out the house to reduce smoke odor.
- Clean laminate surfaces as well as chrome, porcelain and aluminum fixtures to prevent permanent tarnishing or etching.
- Change the air filter on your furnace if it uses forced hot air.
- Tape damp cheesecloth over returns and supply registers to capture loose soot in the air.
- Discard any open food packages.
- If the electricity is off, clean out the refrigerator and leave doors propped open.
- Send clothing with heavy smoke damage to a qualified restoration dry cleaner.
What not to do
- Do not touch anything with your bare hands. Oil from your hands can permeate upholstery, walls, and woodwork, causing additional damage.
- Do not wash the walls. Incorrect cleaning could compound the soot residue.
- Do not attempt to clean carpets or upholstered furniture.
- Do not use electrical appliances until having them checked.
- Do not use ceiling fixtures if the ceiling is wet.
Testimonials / Reviews
My dad is 97 and lives at home with a full time caregiver. There was an electrical fire at the house that destroyed his bedroom and made the house uninhabitable due to smoke damage. After contacting the insurance company, the ServiceMaster rep was there the next day and their crew started the very next day. They anticipated all of the needs of this job, including the interruption of electricity and running water, and had a crew of 5 to 7 people working on it immediately. The job was completed in 5 working days. I live in another state and the Service Master Rep, Andrew, kept me updated every day and met me at the site on two occasions to answer my every question and go over every detail. The entire team was very professional, responsive and friendly. Great job!"
Marissa R.
I cannot express enough how Servicemaster came to our rescue when our boiler cracked and my basement flooded horribly. They were at my house within 2 hours on a Friday night and stayed till it was cleaned out and emptied helping me through the entire process moving all my items, cleaning up the water and so on. They came back all weekend to check on the fans etc. Nothing short of amazing! Michael and his crews are top notch! I would use them again in a heartbeat! Thank you Michael,Donna and your entire staff!
Diana I.
I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding mold remediation service and exceptional customer care that John Knapp and his team provided (Victor, Ricardo, Jose and Jeff). The experience I had with your team surpassed my expectations, and I believe it is crucial to acknowledge the commendable work you do.
Daniella
With water steadily streaming into the basement, we called ServiceMaster. Chris R was at our house quickly, and professionally assessed, gave us his plan for cleanup and mold fix, and had a team to us within 2 days to begin cleanup. The team was professional, efficient, and had a strong plan to help us, with clean up, drying out, and mold remediation. Both Chris R and General Manager John K were attentive, checking in often, and were very flexible to accommodate our remediation expert's advice, more rain along the way, and our endless questions. They were absolutely super, did a great job while managing multiple other jobs, with great service. We hope never to have to call again (!) But if we are ever in this situation again, we would not hesitate to bring these guys back. Big thank you to John, Chris and the team.
Susan B.
We had a sewage back up in our downstairs bathroom into the basement. Once we contacted ServiceMaster, Chris and his team were efficient at removing the wet and damaged materials as well as cleaning and sanitizing before mold set in. Still completing the drying process with several air movers and a dehumidifier down there. They are scheduled to be picked up tomorrow. Considering the circumstances, we are pleased with their service so far. Chris has been great at communicating with us. They were up front about pricing so we knew what to expect.

Can a house be lived in after a fire?
Is it safe to stay in your home after a fire?
FEMA has published a helpful article, available as a pdf download. You can see the article at this link.
An excerpt from the article is here below
"A fire in your home can cause serious damage. Your home and many of the things in your home may be badly damaged by flames, heat, smoke and water.
You will find things not damaged by the fire may still be ruined by smoke and may be soggy with water used to put out the fire. Anything you want to save or reuse will need to be carefully cleaned.
To fight the fire, firefighters may have broken windows and cut holes in the roof. This slows the fire’s growth and gets rid of dark smoke that makes it hard for firefighters to see. They may have cut holes in your walls to make sure that the fire is completely out and not hidden in the walls.
It is important to understand the risk to your safety and health even after the fire is out. The soot and dirty water left behind may contain things that could make you sick. Be very careful if you go into your home and if you touch any fire-damaged items. "
The article goes on to provide excellent and relevant advice for steps to take after a fire or house fire.
How do you clean soot from the inside of house after a fire?
How do you clean soot from the inside of a house after a fire?
We believe most people benefit from professional soot removing services, by trained soot removing experts in fire damage restoration because it's a difficult process.
Should you wish to remove soot yourself, The American Red Cross recommends the following process.
"To remove soot and smoke from walls, furniture and floors, use a mild soap or detergent or mix together 4 to 6 tbsp. tri-sodium phosphate and 1 cup household cleaner or chlorine bleach to every gallon of warm water. Wear rubber gloves. Be sure to rinse surfaces with clear warm water and dry thoroughly."
