Why Do Great Neck Homeowners Trust SERVPRO for Fire Damage Restoration?

Fire damage restoration of your Great Neck property involves several activities, from cleaning the smoke and soot residue to deodorization. Hiring professionals like SERVPRO can help you restore your home  to its preloss condition, “Like it never even happened.”

SERVPRO techs use various methods to clean residues from surfaces during fire damage restoration of your Great Neck home. While some situations do require the use of chemical cleaning agents, mechanical agitation is sufficient in others. SERVPRO techs use mechanical agitation in cases where a light concentration of non-greasy residue is present on non-porous surfaces. Based on the amount of agitation required, SERVPRO techs use different pieces of equipment.

Mechanical Agitation Equipment That SERVPRO Techs use During House Fire Cleanup in Great Neck

The mechanical agitation process can be classified into mild, medium, and heavy depending on the amount of force offered.

SERVPRO techs use feather dusters, brushes, and compressed air to achieve mild agitation. It is one of the safest mechanical methods to clean almost any kind of surface. However, a gentle agitation is not useful if the amount of soot is heavy or wet.

Dry chemical sponges, cleaning towels, and dusting cloths offer medium agitation. Crumbly Cleaner that SERVPRO techs use on Great Neck properties works by absorbing the residue and falling apart, much like a pencil eraser. It also provides medium agitation.

Roto pads and blast cleaning with sand, baking soda, or dry ice provide a heavy agitation. While these methods are quite effective, they are not useful on delicate surfaces. 

SERVPRO techs choose the agitation methods that eliminate the residue as much as possible without harming the surface being cleaned.
