The Quality of Your Restoration Company Matters | SERVPRO® of East Honolulu

As winter approaches, it is important for homeowners to be sure they are fully prepared for a fire. The winter months are when the most home fires occur according to the Red Cross.
It is wise for every household to develop their own emergency fire escape plan to prepare for the moment a fire breaks out—but preparing for the aftermath is also important. By deciding in advance what restoration company to work with after a fire, you can get the restoration process in motion immediately in order to have your home back to its pre-fire condition.
Working with an experienced fire restoration company is the best way to get peace of mind after a fire. Not only will you have a guarantee that your restoration will be done right, but they will also be able to handle the majority of your belongings instead of only being able to salvage bits and pieces. After a fire, here are the three types of cleanups we can perform:
Structural Cleaning
Fires can not only damage paint and drywall, but they can also cause harm to the structural elements of your home. By performing testing, we can determine the exact extent of this damage so that we can ensure every damaged element is restored. Then our technicians will bring in their equipment to begin the cleaning and restoration process.
Content Cleaning
With the contents of your home, it is often far more cost-effective to have them restored rather than to replace them, which is why we ensure we have the ability to do this. We have both wet and dry cleaning machines to handle a variety of object types. We can often restore most of a home’s contents, from electronics to paintings to wooden furniture. This ensures your favorite items are safe to use and that you do not have to go through the stressful replacement process.
Deodorization Services
Lingering smoke and soot after a fire might cause unpleasant odors, but they can also cause negative health effects. For this reason, air quality cleanup is a very important part of the restoration process. By bringing in foggers and air scrubbers, we are able to fully remove these particles in lieu of simply covering up the scent.
