Leaks are typically a more common occurrence. Fire damage, on the other hand, is something we don\u2019t usually make a plan for. A fire can swiftly blaze through a home, destroying everything and leaving even more chaos in its wake.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">We Didn\u2019t Start the Fire.&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While rarer than water damage, fires do occur, and they can be devastating. Over the past two months, our Hoboken team has experienced an influx of calls for fire damage (five to be exact!) from the Jersey Shore to Bergen County. Although we follow the same basic procedure for each job, each fire presents unique issues and obstacles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we get called in to assist with the aftermath of a fire, we first assess the entire situation and the damage done. Our professional technicians remove any items that can not be saved and secure the property from uninvited visitors. Our technicians then work to remove excess water and dry any affected areas to avoid further water damage. Once everything is dry, the next steps include removing soot, biological and chemical pollutants, and smoke odor from surfaces. Finally, the smoke, dust, and debris are extracted, and the sanitation process begins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"18856\" src=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/351\/2021\/08\/AdobeStock_117189015-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18856\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/jersey-city-nj-puroclean-hoboken\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/886\/2021\/08\/AdobeStock_117189015-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/jersey-city-nj-puroclean-hoboken\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/886\/2021\/08\/AdobeStock_117189015-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/jersey-city-nj-puroclean-hoboken\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/886\/2021\/08\/AdobeStock_117189015-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.puroclean.com\/jersey-city-nj-puroclean-hoboken\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/886\/2021\/08\/AdobeStock_117189015.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">An influx of fires in the community have kept PuroClean busy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Usually, we only deal with this type of job occasionally, but receiving five of these jobs in just a couple of months has been quite the undertaking.
