PuroClean Fire Mitigation Services Include

Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration

  1. Smoke Odor Removal and Professional Deodorization
    Smoke can penetrate walls, furniture, and HVAC systems. We use thermal fogging, vapor modification, and ozone treatment to neutralize odors and restore healthy indoor air.

    Time-sensitive cleaning prevents further damage to walls, ceilings, and surfaces. Our deep-cleaning methods help prevent corrosion, discoloration, and mold — especially important in humid North Carolina summers.

    We inventory and transport salvageable items to an off-site facility for professional cleaning and restoration, protecting your belongings while we work on the structure.

    Fires can compromise roofs, windows, and doors. We provide immediate board-up and roof tarping to protect your property from weather and vandalism.
  5. Carpet and Pad Removal
    Smoke-damaged carpets trap soot and odors. Our team carefully removes affected materials and evaluates the subfloor for damage or lingering contaminants.
  6. Puff-Back Cleaning
    A malfunctioning furnace can spew oily soot throughout your home. We specialize in removing puff-back residue from walls, ceilings, and ductwork, restoring clean indoor air and surfaces.

What is Smoke Damage?

Smoke damage is often more destructive than it appears. It can tarnish metals, discolor walls, etch glass, and embed itself into soft surfaces. Greasy soot can linger on furniture and fabrics, while microscopic particles cause long-term air quality issues.

Without professional cleaning, smoke residues can become permanent and even cause structural deterioration over time.

What Are the Types of Smoke Damage in Homes?

Understanding the type of smoke involved helps us determine the most effective restoration approach:

  • Wet Smoke
    Produced by burning rubber or plastic. Leaves behind a thick, sticky residue that clings to surfaces and requires specialized cleaning.
  • Dry Smoke
    Generated by fast-burning paper or wood. Easier to clean, but spreads fine powder-like soot that gets into cracks and electronics.
  • Protein Smoke
    Originating from kitchen fires or organic material. Often invisible, but extremely pungent. Requires advanced deodorization like ozone or fogging to fully eliminate the smell.

The Impact of Smoke Damage on Your Property

Smoke doesn’t just affect what you can see — it infiltrates walls, insulation, and air systems. It can corrode electronics, damage textiles, and destroy valuable personal items if not treated quickly.

In homes across Germanton, Rural Hall, and Pine Hall, where many properties are older or lack central HVAC, smoke can travel in unpredictable ways. Acting fast is the best way to prevent smoke from permanently compromising the structural integrity and livability of your space.
