Until SERVPRO of Savannah Arrives to Assist in a Fire

7/19/2021 (Permalink)

Helpful tips until SERVPRO of Savannah arrives to assist in the fire damage: 

• Limit movement in the home to prevent soot particles from spreading and additional damage from occurring. 
• Place clean towels or old linens on rugs and high traffic areas and upholstery. 
• Coat chrome faucets, trip and appliances with petroleum jelly or oil. 
• Place aluminum foil or wood blocks between furniture legs and wet carpet.  
• Do not wash any walls or painted surfaces. 

• Do not shampoo carpet or upholstery. 
• Do not clean any electrical equipment. 
• Do not send clothing to a dry cleaner since improper cleaning may set smoke odor.  
• Keep hands clean. Soot on hands can further soil upholstery, walls, and carpets.  
• If electricity is off, empty freezer and refrigerator completely and prop doors open.
