Preliminary Assessment

During smoke damage restoration, homeowners should maintain good air circulation in the kitchen. Turn on exhaust fans, open doors, and windows. Often an inexpensive ozone generator will also help to get rid of any lingering smoke smells. If the smoke damage is considerable and would need professional repair, you may need to get in touch with your insurance carrier and inquire about filing a claim or contact a professional fire and water restoration company. Make a preliminary assessment on the surfaces to be cleaned. If it has a stain or semi-gloss paint cover, there is a chance that it can be cleaned, washed, and restored easily. Walls painted with flat paint may be difficult to clean completely. In such cases, you should clean as much soot and residue as possible from the surface and then repaint. Wallpaper may have to be replaced. Small fires in the kitchen may result in serious damage that can lead to costly repairs. Although some remedial work can be done on your own, it is still a wise move to seek the advice of experts regarding your problem.
