Emergency services in mitigation strategies can vary from one property to the next after fire losses occur. Determining what your home needs is a factor labeled during the job scoping phase in most cases. Specific pre-mitigation tasks, such as board up and roof tarping, can directly impact the time and overall money spent on restoration. The most direct cause and effect relationship is fire debris removal, which can reduce the concentrations of soot particles and smoke odors throughout the property.
