Fire Damage Cleanup in Boynton Beach

One appliance in your Boynton Beach home that you may not think about causing fires can be dangerous if it is not taken care of correctly – your clothes dryer. A leading cause for this is the accumulation of lint. It creates reduced airflow, making prime conditions for a fire to start. Lint is very combustible, and many people think that pulling the lint out of the trap is good enough. However, lint can get stuck underneath as well.

The dryer in needs regular cleanings of lint, both in the trap and under it. If this is not done, you could very well end up with fire and fire damage to your Boynton Beach home. If the unfortunate has happened, SERVPRO is always standing by to help you. We are a professional fire damage remediation company that can assist you with cleaning and repairing your home after a fire.

Usually, restoration and cleaning services lower the cost of a claim for fire damage. The most expensive aspect is the replacement. Resurfacing is another costly option. Restoration companies can repaint structural surfaces, recover upholstered items and refinish wood surfaces. These services are just a fraction of the cost of resurfacing and replacement.

The goal is to restore materials to their preloss condition. SERVPRO staff follow basic cleaning principles to do so. We first inspect the areas affected carefully to identify the smoke residues present. We begin where the fire started and track where the smoke moved throughout your home. After this, we can identify the kind of residues. Different types can exist simultaneously, and we choose a method of cleaning that removes the particular kinds of smoke residues present.

The kind of surface determines the cleaning methods and safe products for us to use. We work carefully to preserve everything we are cleaning, but we may not be able to restore some materials since they cannot hold up to the process of cleaning.

Some residues bond with surfaces with which they come into contact. We use wet and dry cleaning processes to loosen and remove residue particles from the affected surfaces. Then we properly dispose of debris and cleaning the waste when we are done.

SERVPRO of Boynton Beach is careful to remove all the smoke residues in your home after a dryer fire. Residents in Boynton Beach and the surrounding areas can reach out to us at any time by dialing (561) 413-9754.
