Cleaning the smoke and soot residues from surfaces is one of the most critical steps of the remediation process.

Why do Waterbury Property Owners Trust SERVPRO for Fire Restoration? 

The goal of SERVPRO techs during the fire restoration of your Waterbury home is to restore the damaged material to the preloss condition. Cleaning the smoke and soot residues from surfaces is one of the most critical steps of the remediation process.

While SERVPRO techs are experienced in employing several cleaning methods during fire restoration of Waterbury homes, the process they ultimately choose depends on several key factors:

• The type and chemical composition of residue
• The amount of residue
• The dwell-time
• The nature of the surface

How do SERVPRO Techs Handle Protein Residues During House Fire Cleanup in Waterbury?  

Protein residues formed after burning organic matter such as meat are the toughest to remove. SERVPRO uses several innovative solutions to tackle this problem, including cleaners with enzymes in them. 

Enzymes can easily digest protein soils by chemically modifying their structure to become water-soluble. Once the enzyme has completed its action, we can easily remove the residual with water and detergent solutions.

How do SERVPRO Techs Ensure the Effectiveness of Enzyme Cleaners? 

Although enzyme cleaners that SERVPRO techs use in your fire-damaged Waterbury home are very effective, it is essential to control the temperature and pH to ensure their efficacy. Technicians ensure that the temperature is kept between 100- 1200F and the pH is as close to neutral as possible. 

It is equally important that the enzyme solution is allowed a ‘dwell time’ of 15 minutes to an hour to be effective.
