Fire damage isn’t just about what burned; it’s about the corrosive soot and “smoke film” that settle on every surface. If left untreated, soot can permanently etch glass and corrode metal fixtures within 48 hours. At Basement Expert, we have expanded our services to include technical fire restoration. Our crew of four utilizes HEPA-air scrubbing and specialized soot-removal sponges to stabilize the environment and prevent long-term structural “smoke odor” from becoming permanent.
