Q: What are common challenges faced during fire or smoke damage restoration?

• <div><p>Challenges include ensuring structural safety, completing soot removal, meeting restoration codes, and effectively managing insurance claims.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to stay in a house with smoke damage?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/living-in-house-with-smoke-damage.htm">Living in a house with smoke damage</a> could be safe on a temporary basis, but it depends on the severity and type of smoke damage. If you have major smoke damage or soot present from a fire, you should relocate to keep you and your family safe. Breathing in soot can cause respiratory issues, and it can contain carcinogens, so move out until you get professional remediation done. Your insurance company may cover the cost for alternative housing while your professional works.</p></div>

Q: Does drywall need to be replaced after smoke damage?

• <div><p>You may need to replace drywall because of smoke damage. If the drywall is covered in soot, you may be able to clean it, but it will require a lot of time and effort. You could spend hours cleaning the drywall only to find there is more damage and it needs to be replaced anyway. It&rsquo;s usually easier and safer to remove the smoke-damaged drywall and replace it.</p></div>

Q: What costs are involved in fire or smoke damage restoration services?

• <div><p>Restoration services typically state costs ranging from a few thousand to several tens of thousands, depending on the extent of the damage.</p></div>

Q: Is food cooked in a smoking oven safe to eat?

• <div><p>It depends. For new ovens, it&rsquo;s best to run a few empty cycles to prepare the oven for use and to keep any manufacturing byproducts from entering your food. But if your oven is smoking due to a few burnt pieces of old food, then it probably won&rsquo;t hurt to eat it. If there&rsquo;s a lot of smoke, then your food probably won&rsquo;t taste good, even if it might not be harmful to consume.</p></div>
