Why smoke damage needs professional cleanup
Even a small kitchen or furnace fire can send smoke through an entire house. Soot is acidic, and once it settles it etches glass, discolors paint, tarnishes metal, and works its way into drywall, insulation, and soft furnishings. The longer it sits, the more permanent the staining and corrosion become — which is why the hours right after a fire matter so much.
In Metro Detroit homes, forced-air heating and central AC pull smoke odor into the ductwork and spread it room to room, so a fire in one corner of the house can leave every space smelling burnt. Dry Pros identifies the type of soot residue, cleans surfaces with the right methods for each material, addresses the HVAC system, and treats the lingering odor at its source instead of masking it.
What is included:
- Soot and residue removal from walls, ceilings, and hard surfaces
- Cleaning of the type of soot present — dry, wet, or protein — with the right method for each
- HVAC and duct evaluation to stop odor from recirculating
- Deodorization and odor treatment at the source, not just air freshening
- Content cleaning for salvageable belongings, and documentation for your insurer
