Q: How does ozone treatment remove smoke smells?

• <div><p>Ozone smoke removal uses an ozone generator to eliminate stubborn odors from sources like house fires, wildfires, or cigarette smoke. Ozone (O3) is a highly reactive, unstable gas that neutralizes odors by oxidizing the organic compounds it comes into contact with. During this oxidation process, ozone &quot;donates&quot; its extra oxygen molecule to the smoke particles, effectively eliminating their smell, with oxygen being the primary byproduct. While ozone can be effective for removing smoke smells from building materials and belongings like wood furniture, this treatment is best left to a professional, as improper use of an ozone generator can be dangerous to your health.</p></div>

Q: What happens to stucco in a fire?

• <div><p>All of the components of stucco are non-combustible, so the siding material won&rsquo;t ignite or spread fire to the interior of your home. However, it also expands and contracts with changes in temperature, so it will crack from long exposure to heat. Eventually, fire will spread through those cracks. Still, stucco is one of the best siding materials for fire protection and can keep you and your family safe for an hour, on average.</p></div>

Q: Does insurance cover acts of nature?

• <div><p>Yes, most insurance plans cover acts of nature. In policy documents, this also may be called &ldquo;Acts of God&rdquo; or &ldquo;natural disasters.&rdquo; However, not all acts of nature are covered by your policy, and the extent to which they&rsquo;re covered depends on your specific contract. Check your policy documents to understand your coverage limits and exclusions.</p></div>

Q: Can mineral spirits combust?

• <div><p>Yes, mineral spirits are flammable and may spontaneously combust at temperatures of 200 degrees F or more. Storing them in well-ventilated spaces and disposing of them the proper way are the best ways to prevent mineral spirits or anything contaminated with them, like towels and rags, from going up in smoke.</p></div>

Q: What is the process of fire restoration?

• <div><p>The first step is removing water or chemical residue, if applicable, after extinguishing. Next, your professional will clean up soot, remove damaged materials, treat the smoke damage, and complete any necessary structural repairs. After that, your pro will begin the build-back process and install finishes to restore your home to its previous condition.</p></div>

They completed the repair while we were at work, and the repair looks good. They did not sweep up after themselves so I had to sweep my driveway, walkway, and side-walk. When I pay a professional I expect a professional job which includes clean-up.

"Scott Cummings called to delay his arrival, so we were not kept waiting. His inspection was done with a running commentary and his conclusion was that he could not find anything that was required. That saved us $639 for a job that proposed by another company, and left us feeling safe to use the fireplace again. And then he would not charge for his visit. We would call this friendly professional next time our chimney needs TLC."
