Q: How do you detect smoke damage?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll know you have smoke damage if you notice a lingering smoky odor, see soot or residue, or spot any discoloration of surfaces in your home. If you have any kind of house fire, always assume you have smoke damage and hire a professional <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-to-call-for-smoke-damage.htm">who deals with smoke damage</a> to assess the extent of the damage and restore your home to its pre-fire condition.</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: How likely is a chimney fire?

• <div><p>Depending on who&rsquo;s doing the estimating, about 22,000 to 25,000 chimney fires happen each year in the United States. Given the fact that millions of Americans have fireplaces (and chimneys), that means chimney fires aren&rsquo;t exactly common&mdash;but they&rsquo;re not rare, either. Since they&rsquo;re so dangerous, it&rsquo;s important to take precautions to prevent them.</p></div>

Q: Do services include smoke odor removal?

• <div><p>Yes, professionals use specialized treatments to remove smoke odors and improve indoor air quality.</p></div>

Q: Can I clean up fire damage myself?
