Why Does It Still Smell After Cleaning Up From A Grease Fire?

Agrease fire/smoke cleanup in your Washington Countyproperty comes with many challenges for SERVPRO technicians. When a protein is cooking in an oil-based substance such as lard, cooking, or olive oil, and it heats to flashpoint, the now airborne protein molecules spray out onto surfaces. The result is a barely visible, very intense film that needs more than soap and water to remove. SERVPRO techs use their specialized cleaning methods to:

• Lift away dried smoke residues off walls and ceilings
• Mix solvent-based cleaning agents to remove greasy protein films
• Test surfaces before cleaning to ensure the method chosen will not mar it

Odor control is a big part of this type of restoration service. Once the visible areas get restored, the technicians apply the needed level of scent removal. SERVPRO has the equipment to handle both embedded odors and airborne, which is an effective way to neutralize the aftermath of agrease firecompletely.
