After a fire SERVPRO of Rochester technicians inventoried and took photos of any contents that were destroyed or uncleanable. However, some contents are able to be salvaged and cleaned using the SERVPRO cleaning products. SERVPRO of Rochester has an entire cleaning product line with two chemists on staff. Sometimes we run into stubborn affected materials and are able to consult with them and have success!

SERVPRO of Rochester used a type of media blasting called soda blasting to help remove the soot, charred materials and smell of smoke. It's amazing to see the before affected materials to the right side of photo showing after media blasting. SERVPRO of Rochester did all the work "in house" by our technicians.

SERVPRO of Rochester was called to a home where there had been a fire in the home.  Our technicians use dry sponges specifically made to remove soot and other debris that are in smoke. This process is incredible when you are working and watching the ceiling change color becoming cleaner and cleaner.  The sponge is actually made of vulcanized latex rubber and has pores on it similar to a sponge allowing small, fine particles to be absorbed. The dry sponge is put on our extendable dry sponge pole.  The technician works different ways meticulously and is able to get the soot successfully removed.
