South Peabody, MA Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration

With elevated level of humidity common to the North Shore area, our South Peabody properties that become impacted by fires can produce wet smoke that is a devastating force to the structure. These thick smoke residues can lay on surfaces and contents, and their acidic nature can tarnish textures and finishes to require widespread tear-out and reconstruction for affected areas of the home. Our SERVPRO team has a growing roster of fire restoration technicians that can respond quickly to emergencies and better protect the property and its contents from post-fire effects.

Fire Mitigation Steps for South Peabody 

Fire mitigation can describe multiple actions taken as soon as our technicians arrived to lessen the length of time and money invested in restoration. Mitigation is crucial for situations like oil furnace puff backs that leave soot residues in multiple rooms of the house and throughout the HVAC system ducts. Cleaning up these impacted areas prevents the furnace from circulating soot particles that can be hazardous to the occupants of the house and damage structural elements.

Fire Odor Removal in South Peabody Homes 

Removing harsh odors from the property after a fire was incident is often one of the final obstacles necessary in restoration. From open-air threats to trapped smells in porous materials like drywall or carpeting, there are several tools and products involved in deodorization. Some of these include: 

  • Foggers
  • Hydroxyl generators
  • Ozone machines
  • Odor counteractants

Our Fire Restoration Process

Every fire damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.

Step 1: Emergency Contact

We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week. When you call, one of our representatives will ask a series of questions about the fire damage to your home or business. This information helps us respond immediately with all the needed equipment and resources.

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

We determine the scope of the fire and smoke damage by examining the affected areas and by testing the adjoining rooms for smoke and soot damage. An accurate assessment is crucial to the planning process. 

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service (if needed)

In many fire damage cases, it’s necessary to board up missing windows and walls and to place tarps on a damaged roof. This helps to maintain security and to protect against further damage. 

Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)

The water removal process begins almost immediately and removes the majority of the water. We then use dehumidifiers and air movers to remove the remaining water and complete the drying process. 

Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces

We use specialized equipment and techniques to remove smoke and soot from ceilings, walls, and other surfaces. 

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

We clean and sanitize the restorable items and structures damaged by the fire. Our professionals use a variety of cleaning techniques to restore your belongings to pre-fire condition. We’re also trained to remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

Step 7: Restoration

Restoration is the final step—getting your home or business to its pre-fire condition. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet; or it may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
