Your Pompton Lakes Home may be Full of Water, Soot and Debris, but SERVPRO Can Help You Restore It

When a fire occurs in your Pompton Lakes home, you may think that getting rid of soot is your biggest problem. However, the firefighters' efforts also leave a residue behind in the form of water and extinguishing solutions, as well as general disarray of the affected areas. Furthermore, your ventilation system seems to spew a foul odor in every room, even those far from where the fire ignites.

Call our 24/7 hotline and get the ball rolling to mitigate your loss of time and money.

What are the leading fire restoration steps?

The restoration of your home is quite intuitive. We need to remove any standing water, clean individual surfaces where soot has settled, and follow up with a disinfecting and deodorizing process. However, the devil is in the details. When you invite our SERVPRO crew into your home, you can be sure that we use the correct equipment to achieve each goal efficiently. Knowing the theory behind home fires helps us determine which cleaners to use, what size pumps to resort to, and which items to discard. Every single step we take is deliberate, and we base it on industry best practices. Some techniques you may see us apply in your home include-

• Wand extraction to remove water from tucked-away corners of your home
• Fogging with disinfecting agents
• Treatment of salvageable porous materials and textiles

When fire strikes, you don't need to know each step towards restoration. Instead, you can call SERVPRO of Wayne at (973) 546-4977 and place your trust in our expertise. Together, we can work hard until your home looks, "Like it never even happened."
