Don't Let Smelly House Fires in Santa Clarita Disrupt Your Family and Property--Call SERVPRO, "Like it never even happened."

We have a vast inventory of tools and products to overcome fire loss effects in Santa Clarita properties.

While a considerable amount of time and effort gets expressed on the pressing concerns of fire losses like structural damage, soot deposits, and airborne contaminants, having suitable solutions for threats like smoke odors is also important. There are multiple phases to the deodorization process in smoke-damaged homes.

Lessening the Impact of Smoke Malodors

The first step that our experienced professionals take towards clearing odors from fire damage in Santa Clarita homes is to reduce the severity of these effects. Specific actions taken throughout the restoration process can ultimately aid in reducing the harshness and concentrations of post-fire odor damage. Some of these approaches include:

• Debris Removal
• Air Filtration
• Thermal/ULV Fogging

Counteractant Products Strategically Placed

We have multiple products that aim to grab odor compounds from the environment and reduce the severity of post-fire smells. Counteracting beads and granules are among these products, and groups of these items get placed at airflow pathways to trap migrating odors before they overwhelm new areas of the house. Granules can be placed in the HVAC system or at strategic structural openings.

Deodorization Tools in Our Inventory

In addition to the wealth of products available for our experienced fire restoration team, we also have trusted deodorization and environmental cleaning equipment. Ozone machines might provide the most direct deodorization, but this is often overshadowed by the multi-purpose and versatile hydroxyl generator that can also work to filter out airborne particles and contaminants while chemically altering malodorous compounds.

Finishing Products

When wall surfaces are to be repainted, it is customary first to apply odor-sealing primers to the surface to prevent the resurgence of trapped smoke smells later. Products like these trap smoke molecules behind an impenetrable barrier before the top coat of paint restore the attractive aesthetic you expect.

Smoke odors are a challenging situation, but our SERVPRO of Santa Clarita Valley team can help. Give us a call today at (661) 296-4600.
