Why SERVPRO Fits as Your Indian Village Fire Damage Specialist

The harm done by an Indian Village household fire can affect every structural component and all its contents. Limiting the homeowner's stress during recovery involves engaging a disaster restoration company that can manage each aspect. Our commitment to offering full-spectrum mitigation and remediation services is why we are up to delivering industry best practice results on every phase of a complex project.

Kitchen Fires Create Issues Throughout Your Home 

It can be astounding how pervasive and persistent kitchen fire damage in your Indian Village home becomes. Regardless of how quickly you respond to the blaze, the protein-based residues created by evaporation move quickly on air currents or through the HVAC ductwork in your house. The greasy debris seeks cooler surfaces, often leaving the area of the fire relatively residue-free as they find and adhere to surfaces in far-flung rooms and levels of your home. Tightly adhered, and very malodorous, you cannot chance leaving any of the damage unremediated.

Water and Chemical Residuals Need Attention

Although water is not the substance of choice to quell a grease fire, a chemical extinguisher can fill your kitchen with foam. Water damage can be present if used as the fire spread. SERVPRO addresses fire-fighting residuals early on, drawing on our water damage and general cleaning knowledge and experience.

Utilizing Cleaning Principles

When cleaning different types of fire residues, SERVPRO evaluates the make-up of the residues to determine what kind of cleaning agent and action is most effective. We use the principle that “like dissolves like” constantly when looking for solutions to clear away residues. Since water is of little use when extinguishing a kitchen fire, it should come as no surprise that water-soluble cleaners are not what we reach for when removing protein-based residues. Our technicians use formulas specially developed to loosen the nearly invisible residue, and we also consider agitation and abrasive tools to assist. 

Perseverance for Persistent Odor Problems

Our deodorization experts need to pull out all the stops when it comes to odor abatement after a kitchen fire. SERVPRO uses a multi-step process including debris disposal, deep cleaning, and a consideration of a range of specialized products and equipment that masks, pairs with, or changes the chemical characteristics of the odor-bearing particles. We work with you and your individualized perception of odor until you are satisfied that the smell is gone.

Disaster recovery is hard enough without periodically switching contractors, why SERVPRO of Lafayette pledges to maintain industry certification across many disciplines. Call us at (765) 420-0077 to set things right from top to bottom.
