Full coverage on every Smoke Damage Removal job we run in Windsor, VA.
Most Windsor, VA calls get a technician on-site the same day.
Nearly invisible residue from kitchen and grease fires, treated with enzyme-based cleaners that break down the film.
Sticky residue from burning plastics and synthetics, removed with solvent-based agents plastics don't absorb.
Wet smoke residue often needs a two-pass cleaning approach: a solvent pass followed by a dry-sponge pass.
Dry-chemical sponges lift this residue type without smearing it further into porous surfaces.
Smoke residue circulated through ductwork gets cleaned separately from surface work.
Upholstery and curtains get ozone or thermal treatment rather than surface wiping, which just moves residue around.
