Wildfire Smoke Damage and Restoration
8/13/2021 (Permalink)
After a fire/wildfire affects your home or business, the damage done can be more than what’s directly burnt by the fire. The smoke that resides often causes several problems down the line.
Smoke damage is considered anything that is negatively impacted when it is covered by smoke. This smoke often results in a nasty smell and in worse cases can cause consequential damage to the structural integrity of your building. If your home or business was exposed to fire/wildfire smoke it is important to have your contents properly inspected, tested, treated, and restored.
Here is a checklist that will help you identify and document smoke damage to backup your insurance claim:
-Document any damage that you can visually find. Take pictures.
-Work with your insurance and allow them to properly inspect your building. These inspections and estimates will be important.
-Allow the restoration process to begin and do not hesitate to ask questions.
