SERVPRO Techs Can Perform Housefire Cleanup of Any Size Within Canoga Park Properties

One of the things most Canoga Park property owners notice from a post-house fire is how uneven the damage is within the structure. A significant contributing factor to this outcome is that different materials burn at varying heat levels, which generates a diverse array of heat levels and causes various types of residues. 

When handling fire damage restoration in Canoga Park properties, the techs from SERVPRO have the expertise to recognize whether the smoke damage left behind is from high or low heat and the cleanup applications needed to treat it successfully. Common high heat damages the techs encounter regularly include: 

• Holes in roofing and floors 
• High temp fires can reach 1100 degrees Fahrenheit resulting in soot baked onto surfaces
• The high heat can burn through floor joists making the structure unsafe

The techs make sure the structure is sound before working inside and make the needed temporary repairs to halt further damage, such as tarping over holes in the roof or placing sturdy boards over holes in flooring to increase the safety of the worksite. 

Removal of baked-on soot is always a challenge, and the techs bring specific equipment as needed to handle this issue. One of the most commonly used abatement approaches involves the use of dry. Rather than creating water damage by melting after use, the cooled CO2 pellets are around minus 109 degrees Fahrenheit when they get blasted onto a surface and turn into harmless water vapor after striking it and taking a little soot off at a time without marring the article.
