This avoids the streaking that comes from wiping soot with a cloth.
We match method to material, not the other way around.
Local crews mean faster arrival before damage compounds.
Standard vacuums push soot particles back into the air — ours don't.

The primary method for lifting soot from drywall and painted trim without smearing.
Vacuuming first prevents particulate from smearing once surfaces get wet.
Tile, glass, and metal respond well to solvent cleaners that would stain something more absorbent.
We prioritize metal surfaces early because the corrosion clock starts immediately.
Ceilings get cleaned first so falling residue doesn't recontaminate clean walls.

"We tried wiping the soot down ourselves and just smeared it worse across the wall. Their dabbing technique actually lifted it cleanly." — Homeowner, Auburndale
"They caught the soot on our kitchen faucet before any real pitting started, which the adjuster said saved us a hardware replacement claim." — Homeowner, Auburndale, FL
"I didn't expect the vacuum step to matter, but the carpets ended up much cleaner than our attempt." — Homeowner, Auburndale
Regular cloths spread soot rather than lifting it out.
Ideally within 48 hours, since acidic residue starts pitting metal after that.
Surface type determines whether we use dry sponges or solvent cleaners.
Cleaning reduces odor, but persistent smell may need a separate treatment step.
Yes, HEPA extraction handles soft surfaces before any wet cleaning starts.
We keep response times short across Auburndale because soot corrosion is time-sensitive.
