How Can I Repair Smoke Damage?

Smoke damage can occur without a major fire breaking out in your home. Closed fireplace flues and small-scale kitchen fires can cause discoloration and significant odors if you don't act quickly. Unless you address the problem immediately, the smell of smoke can seep into the walls, carpets and furniture. Here's how you can move fast and cleanup any smoke damage:
  • Shut off your AC to stop spreading smoke.
  • To fan out smoke, put large fans by open doors and windows.
  • When vacuuming ash and soot, hold the nozzle right above the soot to suck it up. Pressing down on the soot could cause stains.
  • Use a cloth to wipe down hard surfaces.
  • Use a dry sponge to wipe away soot from ceilings and walls and get rid of stains with a vinegar spray.
  • Clean any item that has been affected, such as light bulbs.
  • Dry clean or deep wash any clothing or curtains that were affected.
  • Deodorize window coverings and carpets using odor counteractants.
