Service Solutions

Smoke Damage Removal Services Built Around Residue Type

01

Protein Residue Treatment

Left untreated, this residue tends to yellow surfaces over time.

02

Synthetic Residue Removal

Sticky film from burning plastics, lifted with solvent-based agents that won't absorb into the material.

03

Wet Smoke Cleanup

Thick, smearier residue from a smoldering fire, often needing a two-pass cleaning approach.

04

Dry Smoke Cleanup

Powdery residue from a fast, hot fire, lifted with dry-chemical sponges rather than solvents.

05

HVAC Residue Decontamination

We test and treat vents as part of the same visit, not a separate call.

06

Textile & Upholstery Treatment

Wiping upholstery just moves residue around instead of removing it.
