We are Locally Owned and Operated, so we are always nearby. Speed is a crucial factor in the successful restoration of property after smoke damage. Smoke is:
- Highly corrosive
- Greasy and lightweight
- Odorous
- Tricky:
- Smoke particles from protein are invisible, so we use special equipment to find them
- Because they are lightweight, they may travel from one area to an area you thought was clean
- We test the smoke to determine what kinds of cleaners and brushes we’ll need for the diverse materials in your home – using the wrong combination can cause further damage
- Smoke has peculiar travel patterns that we’ve studied, so we know where to look for likely damage
When you call us at 320-219-6505, you get certified, experienced, dedicated technicians who have the specialized equipment to restore your home from smoke damage. We also help you restore your home from water, mold (microbial growth in general), and other contaminants.
Prevention is Easier than Restoration
Our Douglas & Otter Tail Counties team members do everything possible to make your experience less stressful than it is when you call us. We work with your insurance company, keep careful documentation, and are always ready to show what we’re doing and why.
Nonetheless, if you never have a fire in your home, you won’t need to call us for restoration from fire and smoke damage. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends:
- Keep watch on your cooking – don’t leave the room when you are boiling, frying, or sautéing
- Make sure that flammable materials are not near turned-on stoves, hotpots, or other heat sources
- Keep children and pets away from candles, cooking, heaters…
- Don’t let candles burn unattended
- Plug major appliances (refrigerators, heaters, washing machines…) directly into outlets rather than into extension cords
If your home does get blasted by fire or smoke damage, call us at 320-219-6505.
