After A Fire Loss in Sanford, Test The Pros for Fire and Odor Cleanup

The high rate of damage that is left once a fire is put out can be a costly and tragic loss for you and your home. Besides burned personal items, hard to remove odors can remain in your home after a severe fire loss. It may be difficult to repair your home and remove these scents using DIY methods alone, which is why calling a professional crew to come out and do some tougher cleaning and restoration is generally always worth it. 

When you need fire and odor cleanup in Sanford after a fire, there are a number of factors such as lingering airborne particles that a normal homeowner may be unaware of, or just not know how to get rid of. That's where SERVPRO of North Seminole County comes in. When you call us, our specialized fire damage team in Sanford completes a through walkthrough of the property to examine and identify all damage and potential hotspots for more damage to occur. From there, they come up with a proper way to proceed and keep the homeowner up to speed on everything they are going to do make it seem "Like it never even happened." 

We use high-tech equipment to remove smoke and soot residue to destroy those foul odors that the fire may have left behind. It is always our goal to make sure that fire damage is dealt with properly and effectively as some odors are incredibly difficult to remove, and we want to get the job done right the first time around. 

What To Do After A Fire Loss

After you have experienced a fire and everything is deemed safe, the next thing to do after a major fire loss would be to remove any and all loose debris on the property that is beyond salvageable. Debris removal is also apart of our fire loss service as we can safely remove any optionally hazardous materials so you don't have to. 

It may be a good idea to separate your personal property items into what us salvageable and what isn't, so our crew of professionals can begin the fire damage restoration process without removing any of your personal property that you may want to keep despite being slightly damaged. FEMA has a lot of great tips on how to properly bounce back after a fire.
