Timing is Critical
Smoke damage and other kinds of fire-related damage are serious, and they keep getting worse over time; we’re talking about hours, not months.
Depending on what was burned, the smoke residue can range in its effects from mild to severe, with “mild” effects coming from items burned at extremely high temperatures, not usually found in residential fires.
At the other extreme, protein residue may not even show up immediately. Smoke from food or animal products (such as wool or leather) will continue to damage materials until it is removed by people who (a) know how to find the damage, (b) have the equipment and training to remove it without harming the surface, and (c) can do the work without harming themselves or others.
Faster to Any Size Disaster
Because time is critical, we stand by our motto (one of our mottoes) to be “Faster to any size disaster”.
You probably noticed we have several mottos. They’re part of who we are and how operate.
- Locally Owned and Operated
- Faster to Any Size Disaster
- Like it never even happened.
We’re a local company (#1) which means we don’t have to schedule appointments through a central office in another state. Therefore, we can get to your emergency as quickly as is practical (#2). Because we live here, we don’t look down on small jobs (#s 1 and 2); we care just as much about your condo as we do about a mansion. We can attend to county-wide disasters (#2) if necessary because we have access to national resources. Regardless of the job, we have the training and the experience to help restore your property to its preloss condition (#3).
Time for Trivia!
