PuroClean of Albuquerque A fire can be one of the most devastating events a homeowner can experience. Even after the flames are extinguished, smoke and soot can continue to damage property, leaving behind lingering odors and health hazards. At PuroClean of Albuquerque, we understand the urgency of acting quickly and thoroughly to restore both the home and peace of mind.
The Incident
Recently, a residential property in Albuquerque suffered a fire that originated in the living area, leaving smoke and soot throughout the home. While structural damage was limited, nearly every surface, walls, ceilings, floors, and fixtures, was affected by smoke residue and odor.
The homeowner contacted PuroClean of Albuquerque for professional restoration services to ensure their home was properly cleaned, deodorized, and safe for occupancy once again.
Our Professional Restoration Process
At PuroClean, we follow IICRC industry guidelines for fire and smoke restoration. Our trained technicians use proven methods and specialized equipment to ensure the home is fully restored.
Here’s how our team helped:
🔹 Comprehensive Cleaning
We began with a wet wipe-down and chemical sponge cleaning on all affected walls, ceilings, and floors. This step is essential to remove soot particles and prevent staining or corrosion on surfaces.
🔹 HEPA Vacuuming for Deep Cleaning
Next, our technicians used HEPA-filter vacuums to capture fine soot and debris. HEPA filtration ensures no harmful particles are recirculated into the air, keeping the environment clean and safe.
🔹 Detailed Surface Restoration
We cleaned all doors, door frames, windows, and hardware wherever possible, removing soot buildup and restoring appearance. Blinds and curtains that were too damaged were safely removed and disposed of.
🔹 Fixture and Vent Cleaning
Light fixtures were carefully evaluated to determine whether they could be restored or needed replacement. We also detached and cleaned all air registers to prevent smoke odors from circulating through the HVAC system.
🔹 Odor Removal and Air Treatment
To eliminate lingering smoke odors, we used a multi-step odor control process:
- Hydroxyl treatment during working hours to neutralize airborne contaminants.
- Ozone treatment overnight to break down odor-causing molecules.
- Odor blocks and air scrubbers with HEPA and carbon filters ran continuously throughout the project to maintain clean, breathable air.
🔹 Safety and Protection
Our technicians wore full PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) throughout the entire process to maintain a safe and controlled work environment, protecting both the restoration crew and the homeowner’s property.
The Outcome
After several days of detailed cleaning, odor treatment, and air purification, the home was fully restored. Smoke odors were completely eliminated, surfaces were sanitized, and the air quality was safe again. The homeowner was relieved and grateful to return to a clean, comfortable space that looked—and smelled—like home once more.
