Even Limited Fires in Reading Can Have Long-Lasting Effects 

The heat and flames of residential fires often stay limited to the room where they started. It is the smoke and odor residues that can spread throughout the home. 

When fire damage happens in Reading, SERVPRO response teams begin work immediately. After a quick inspection, they determine what items can be cleaned and restored or have to be removed for disposal. Completing these tasks requires the following actions:

• Carefully remove burned items to eliminate sources of odors and prevent spreading residues to uncontaminated parts of the home
• Wiping down surfaces with sponges or cloths to remove dry layers of smoke and odor residue particles
• Spraying affected surfaces with a cleaning agent that breaks down thick smoke and odor residues for easier removal

In addition to these first actions, team members also set up axial fans at entry and exit points to push odors and other residue particles out of the home, weather permitting. We also set up air scrubbers and hydroxyl generators to neutralize malodors.
