Fire, smoke, and soot damaged home

SERVPRO was called out to this home due to fire, soot, and smoke damage that had traveled to several parts of this home. The fire was contained to one area, however, the smoke and soot had affected the entire home including the HVAC system. 

The first picture of the sponge shows just how much soot was found in the bathroom of this home.  The soot traveled throughout the HVAC system into every area of the home. 

When it comes to your property, knowing how temperature, the surrounding environment, particle ionization, and airflow patterns affect smoke distribution can help you better restore your property to normal. To better understand how smoke behaves during a fire, review this information from the experts at SERVPRO of Arlington Heights/Prospect Heights.  Call us with all your fire damage needs at 847-637-3445.
