Category: Soot Damage

After most fires, regardless of size, typically soot damage is a leftover byproduct. Soot is a black powdery substance that is left after an organic item is not fully burned. This flakey substance is largely made of amorphous carbon and is the direct result of a fire. A fire can cause ruinous damage depending on the severity of said fire. In smaller instances, you may be left with excess soot or extreme smoke damages. 

United Water Restoration Group technicians are professionally trained and certified in handling any degree of fire damage. We can assist in bringing your home or business back to a state of normalcy. Our technicians can handle every step of our damage restoration process. One of the first steps after any fire is to clear out any excess soot damage that remains. Soot is incredibly common after any fire. Due to the consistency of this residue, it can be difficult to clean up on your own. This rings especially true in cases with an extreme excess of soot damage. 

During our fire damage restoration process, our technicians will carefully comb through your home or business. They will pinpoint any area that is exposed to elements and correct it before further damages accrue. This type of residue and damage can be extreme and may cause certain materials and items to deteriorate further if not addressed immediately.
