These small fires can lead to big odor issues.

Fire... It happens. Its unfortunate but fire is a traumatic life experience that does happen. The small stove top grease kitchen fire can be very misleading in its size of damages and the scope of work to completely remove odor particles. Odor particles are a real thing that have a physical form and actually are so small that they can not be seen with the naked eye. Even when all visible cleanup is performed our nose may detect an odor indicating there is still lingering odor particles. These are some common missed areas that get over looked while cleaning up fire damage.

-Entire HVAC systems

-Behind outlet and switch covers

-Behind glass globes of light fixture 

-Exhaust vents in bathroom 

-Coils on back of refrigerator

These are just some of the most common missed places when trying to clean up from a fire damage. To avoid these mistakes call SERVPRO of East Greenville County to help with all your fie cleanup needs.
