Smoke Damage Can Be Repaired

Smoke damage can occur without a major fire breaking out in your home. Smaller kitchen fires and closed fireplace flues can cause discoloration and strong odors if you don’t start cleaning immediately. Unless you address the problem immediately, smoke odor can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here’s how you can move fast and cleanup any smoke damage:

  • Turn off your AC so smoke won’t spread.
  • To fan out smokey air, put large fans by open windows and doors.
  • Vacuum up ash and soot by holding the nozzle right above the soot- pressing down could create unwanted stains.
  • Use a cloth to clean hard surfaces.
  • Wipe away soot from ceilings and walls with a dry sponge and get rid of stains with a vinegar spray.
  • Clean every household item that has been affected, such as light bulbs.
  • Dry clean or deep wash any clothing or curtains that were affected.
  • Use odor counteractants to deodorize carpets and window coverings.
