Advanced Smoke & Odor Removal

Smoke damage doesn’t stop at what you can see. Odors and contaminants can settle deep into building materials, insulation, and air spaces. To address this, we use advanced equipment and proven methods tailored to the type of fire involved.

We utilize hydroxyl generators to safely neutralize smoke odors by breaking down odor-causing molecules in the air, allowing safe occupancy during treatment while achieving long-term deodorization. We also use Serum Systems to eliminate smoke odors and address mold concerns when present.

Understanding Smoke Types

White smoke is commonly associated with protein-based fires, such as cooking-related incidents. Black smoke is typically produced by oil- or synthetic-based materials, including carpets, plastics, paint, and polyester. Identifying the smoke type helps determine the most effective cleaning and deodorization methods.

Emergency Services & Structural Protection

Emergency services may include:

• Board-up of windows, doors, and roof openings
• Roof board-up to protect against weather exposure
• Removal of fire-damaged or smoke-contaminated insulation
• Debris removal and controlled demolition

Removing burned or smoke-contaminated insulation is critical to preventing lingering odors and secondary damage, especially after attic or roof fires.
