Service Solutions

The Full Soot Cleanup Scope For Ladd, IL Properties

Dry-Chemical Sponge Cleaning

Sponges are swapped frequently, since a saturated sponge starts redepositing particulate.

HEPA Vacuum Extraction

Vacuuming first prevents particulate from smearing once surfaces get wet.

Non-Porous Surface Treatment

Different chemistry entirely from what porous drywall needs.

Metal Corrosion Prevention

Acidic residue on hardware and fixtures neutralized before pitting sets in.

Ceiling & Wall Soot Removal

Ceilings get cleaned first so falling residue doesn't recontaminate clean walls.

Vent & Return Cleaning

Cleaned on the same visit, not a separate appointment.
