Cleaning Up Claymont Homes during Fire Damage Restoration

You should treat yourself well, using the best shampoos and body lotions from Family Dollar, Serenity Spa, or Dollar Tree. Your house and valuables deserve a similar treatment, especially after fire incidents. Such maintenance keeps those houses built back in the 1700s and 1800s in the Claymont Historic District or the more identifiable Darley House and Archmere Estate looking pristine. SERVPRO® can provide appropriate cleaning products and handle cleanup procedures for you.

Various cleaning products can be used for fire damage restoration in Claymont properties. However, the right combination is needed for faster results, better outcomes, and minimal after-effects like strong odors. SERVPRO technicians evaluate the soiling level and affected materials to determine the best chemical agents. Most soiling is likely concentrated near source areas such as the kitchen. As you wait for a complete kitchen restoration, you might have to sustain yourself with orders from Krispy Krunchy Chicken, Jing Fong Restaurant, or Charlie's Pizza.

Cleaning product categories

• Neutral cleaning products
• Alkaline cleaning agents
• Acidic cleaning agents

All product categories are helpful, but establishing where to use each enhances the outcome. The water sprayed by firefighters to quell the flames may leave mineral deposits and calcifications. Water damage, such as rust, may also develop around metal items. Our SERVPRO professionals used acidic cleaners to address these problems.

Some areas of the property, especially far from the seat of the fire, may have minimal soot residues but still require cleaning to address odors and general grime. Neutral cleaning products are ideally suited for the task since they also have mild scents. However, in the case of heavy soot and grease or oil from fire suppression agents, alkaline cleaning agents are the go-to products.

Despite the wide range of cleaning products, some items, such as electronics, may require specialized attention during restoration. Facilities such as Bucci Guitars, Appliance Repairly, JCT Contractor and Home Services LLC, and Claymont Auto Repair help with such specialized cleaning and detailing work to finalize the restoration of your items.
