Fire Damage In Daytona Beach Often Requires Light Smoke Deodorization

Hundreds of thousands of structure fires occur in Florida every year, which means that your Daytona Beach property could be at risk. The most common cause of fire damage is unattended cooking. Kitchen fires are the majority of structural burns that occur across the country. Even if the blaze that ignites inside your kitchen is minor, the smoke created by the inferno can spread throughout your structure and cause you several different issues.

Many of the fire damage projects in Daytona Beach our SERVPRO team responds to are caused by burning something on the stove or a grease fire. These blazes can sometimes be minor and not torch very many of your contents and building materials. But, the partially burned particles dispersed in the form of smoke can create various problems in rooms far away from the burn's source. Smoke first rises with heat, and then it can follow the natural airflow inside your structure.

Smoke can solidify once it comes into contact with cooler surfaces. Once this occurs, your walls and your ceilings can get coated with soils and soot residues. Smoke can also penetrate deep into the porous materials inside your home and cause unpleasant, burnt aromas to linger inside your home.

Deodorization procedures after you suffer from a kitchen blaze start by our SERVPRO technicians removing the source of the foul smells. If there is any burnt debris remaining after the blaze, we can remove it in sealed plastic bags so that no dust from the charred material spreads throughout your structure. We can then clean any of your surfaces that are coated with soils and soot residues using specialized chemical products and techniques.

After we eliminate any known sources, we then ventilate the affected areas in your house. We can open windows to create air circulation and set up box fans or air movers to push the malodor particles in the air out of your structure. Next, we can utilize other deodorization methods such as ULV or thermal fogging, or ozone generation.
