"could not be happier with the quality of their work. They assembled a kit that, after I bought it, I read was notoriously difficult. Any problems in the parts, they resolved beautifully. Could not be happier with their work and would hire them again without hesitation."

"We had junk to remove from our basement and around our exterior buildings. The quote was for an hour of labor (2 employees) and a 20 foot dumpster. They hauled away metal, oil, electronics, tires and wood-based items. They arrived right on time and were very pleasant to deal with. They stuck around to give us a quote on fence installation as well."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, a bowl of vinegar can absorb smoke. If you want to use this method to reduce the smoke smell in your house, all you have to do is leave a bowl (or multiple bowls) of white vinegar out overnight. Alternatively, you can use bowls of baking soda, coffee grounds, or activated charcoal.

The first thing you should do when cleaning smoke damage is open all your windows to ventilate the affected area and run an air purifier with a HEPA filter. Cover your furniture and belongings to prevent soot accumulation, and vacuum any soot that’s on the floor and other surfaces. Be sure to wear a mask, gloves, and eye protection when cleaning the affected area.

Smoke smell can linger for months or even years and will not go away on its own once it’s penetrated into your walls, floors, ceilings, and furniture. The particles that give smoke its distinctive smell can permeate every corner of your home and can take a very long time to dissipate. Your best bet to combat smoke smell is a combination of thorough cleaning, air purifying, and replacing heavily damaged materials.

It can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks to clean smoke damage, depending mostly on the extent of the damage and the method your professional uses. Ozone smoke restoration is a popular option that takes just 24 to 48 hours, but you may need multiple treatments to remove odors. For major house fires, it might be a better option to replace smoke-damaged materials, which could take six to 12 months.

Regular HVAC filter changes, deep cleaning, and air quality monitoring help maintain a healthy environment.
