Our Cleaning Experts in Union City After a Fire
3/13/2020 (Permalink)
Fire incidents contaminate properties in so many ways. These contaminates seem like they can never be clean again, like you just need to tear it down and start over from scratch. This isn’t always true. SERVPRO at Dyersburg/Union City can help restore your property, “Like it never even happened.”
When it comes to cleaning after a fire this often means there is a need to clean multiple different surfaces simultaneously. SERVPRO has detergents that can help clean such surfaces without causing more damage. A general cleaner like this would be very low in alkalinity with a pH around 10, this will be strong enough to remove the soiling but gentle enough to protect semi-gloss interior paint. Our SERVPRO technicians would use these cleaners on ceilings, painted walls, hard surface furniture, countertops, and wet cleanable wallpapers.
There are times when fires leave greasy soils and other hard-to-clean residues. These residues and soils can be hard to clean no matter how aggressive you scrub. Heavy-duty cleaners help overcome such difficulty. These cleaners are high in alkalinity and contain ammonia. Although these cleaners can be highly effective, they can cause damage to enamel paint, chrome, aluminum, or highly polished surfaces. Our SERVPRO technicians use solutions with caution. They are highly trained on when to use them and how to use the properly.
Any restoration job can present unique challenges, dealing with a fire restoration is no different. Fire restoration challenges are can include black marks, stubborn spots, rust stains, and greasy surfaces. Liquid crème cleaners can clean these with more ease due to having mild abrasives that ordinary cleaners don’t have. Our SERVPRO technicians are extensively trained on using these to deodorize, brighten, and polish hard surfaces. However, these cleaners would be damaging to stainless steel, porcelain, and bathtubs.
Here at SERVPRO Dyersburg/Union City we have the best and most qualified team to help restore your home after a fire “Like it never even happened.”
