Fire Debris Removal and Demolition for Daytona Beach Homes
One of the staples of successful mitigation and recovery of your Daytona Beach home after a fire involves emergency services taking place immediately. We cannot delay with some of the earliest tasks of fire recovery, as long waits could only mean more substantial damage to the property and its contents. While there are numerous emergency services that our SERVPRO team can offer after a loss incident, there are three that are the most critical to reducing further structural degradation.
Fire Debris Removal
When our team first arrives to assess the fire damage to Daytona Beach homes, we can catalog what structural elements and contents have already gotten damaged beyond repair. In many cases, these structural elements have already collapsed and heaped into piles throughout the damaged areas of the house. There are numerous advantages to addressing this debris as soon as possible. Shoveling out remnants of ruined materials and contents can:
• Reduce the severity and concentration of harsh smoke odors
• Reduce the circulating volume of soot particles
• Provide more space and room for our technicians to establish cleaning efforts to save installed materials
Shutting Off Air Circulation
Here in Daytona, many of our friends and neighbors leave their air going year-round. After a fire loss, running HVAC systems can pull in soot and smoke particles and disperse them into new areas of your home. This action widens the damaged area and causes greater lengths of cleaning and restoration to occur. Shutting off the system can prevent it from spreading these effects throughout the property.
Controlled Demolition
With a team of licensed in-house contractors available 24/7, emergency services after a fire loss include controlled demolition when this makes the work safer for our technicians. Our SERVPRO professionals can identify structural hazards during the initial scoping of the work, and discarding these materials can help to ensure the safety of all involved.
Emergency services help our SERVPRO of North Daytona Beach / Ormond Beach team to get a handle on fire emergencies shortly after we arrive. No matter how we can help after a disaster, give us a call at (386) 677-9993.
