Questions after a fire damage? Call on SERVPRO of Port Charlotte

Fire damaged homes and businesses often come with variety of challenges for property owners to overcome. As overwhelming as these issues can be, there are ways that you can work to resolve some of the most pressing and challenging obstacles on your own with the right equipment, knowledge, and products. Knowing what products, information, and equipment you need for aspects like deodorization can help reduce lingering odors and damage from a fire more efficiently. Here are some "insider tips" from our SERVPRO team that we use for this niche of fire cleanup and restoration, and you can use it too to help with reducing the effects of a fire by using certain odor removal equipment. 

Fire damage in Port Charlotte might feel overwhelming at first, especially with various obstacles all present at the same time. Our SERVPRO team has certified Fire & Smoke Restoration Technicians (FSRT), many with additional endorsements as Odor Control Technicians (OCT), so we have the experience and industry-leading equipment to make a difference quickly should you decide it is too much to handle on your own. Part of our success in fire recovery over the years stems from our ability to manage symptoms like lingering smoke odors amid these other effects. 

Regardless of the severity of fire damage incidents, odor control is a considerable phase in recovery and restoration. Our SERVPRO team has an entire inventory of practical deodorization tools and products that lead the industry, and when combined with our extensive experience in fire recovery, improve the speed and success of these odor removal endeavors. Some of these devices we use regularly are:  

-  Hydroxyl Machines – These units can help to reduce or eliminate harsh odors in a compromised environment. Units also work to filter out particulates, debris, dust, and soot circulating in the damaged areas of the property. 

-  Thermal Foggers – While our SERVPRO professionals lean more towards UV foggers for the elimination of lingering smoke odors, thermal fogging is still a powerful tool in our arsenal. These machines are highly portable, helping to address odors throughout the entire property quickly and efficiently.
