SERVPRO Techs Have Comprehensive Training in Restoring Glen Head Furniture Post-Fire Damage

One of the most daunting things for a Glen Head homeowner to see after a house fire is the sheer amount of soot covering the interior. Since there are different types of soot, often in the same area, it is best to outsource the fire damage cleanup to a professional service.

SERVPRO has years of experience handling fire damage restoration in Glen Head properties. A big mistake that homeowners attempt is trying to remove soot from their furnishings. Applying a liquid to dry smoke can ruin the surface by driving the particles into the item rather than cleaning it. Also, scrubbing thick, stuck-on wet smoke can mar a surface. 

The technicians have extensive training in the proper removal of all kinds of smoke damage. The SERVPRO technicians have a systematic process that includes:

  • Testing residues to determine the type
  • Choosing the appropriate cleaning method
  • Ensuring no odorous soot gets left behind 

Hardwood furnishings and countertops may look as though they need to be removed; however, if these articles do not have heat or water damage, they can often have the potential for restoration and reuse by the homeowner. The technicians use their skills to assist Glen Head homeowners in realizing as few replacement purchases as possible.

SERVPRO of Glen Cove / Jericho at (516) 671-1919 provides the local Glen Head community with fire damage restoration services. The trained technicians are available 24/7 to handle all types and sizes of damage from house fires.
