Soot & Smoke Odor Removal Services For Homeowners Nationwide
If your property was damaged by fire, you will likely require prompt, professional soot and odor removal services for your residence. These problems can threaten your health and lead to ongoing issues within your property, contributing to corrosion and the deterioration of material in your home. To ensure the full recovery of your residence, it is vital to begin an effective smoke damage cleanup and soot removal operation right away.
What Is Soot And Why Is It Dangerous?
Soot is the black residue left behind when materials burn incompletely. Composed of tiny carbon particles and various toxic chemicals, soot is notorious for its insidious nature. After a fire, it can permeate every nook and cranny, making its presence felt even when it’s out of sight.
As a leading soot and odor removal company, Revive Property Restoration is keenly aware of the dangers associated with soot exposure following a fire. We are committed to fully restoring properties to their original—or improved—condition.
Our Soot & Odor Removal Services
Our soot and odor removal services tackle soot damage and stains with effective removers while deodorizing the entire property. Soot particles are small and invasive, embedding themselves into building materials like drywall or porous items like upholstery. Unless it is professionally addressed, soot can linger long after your property is restored. Smoke odor is potent and long-lasting. Deodorizing and cleanup service experts work to prevent any potential health problems they can cause. Our experienced professionals have the expertise and advanced equipment required to completely remove smoke odor after a fire.Depending on your unique needs, we may utilize the following to restore your home to its original state—if not better—after soot and odor damage.
Nano filters are advanced filtration systems that remove particles and pollutants from air or liquids. These filters are designed to be highly efficient in capturing particles at the nanoscale level, which includes particles that are as small as a few nanometers in size. Nano filters are commonly used in various applications, including air purification, water treatment, and industrial processes. When it comes to removing soot and odor after a fire, nano filters can be invaluable tools.
Air scrubbers play a crucial role in eliminating noxious airborne particles. They work by drawing in air and passing it through filters, effectively removing harmful contaminants. This is critical during home restoration after a fire to safeguard the occupants’ health and well-being.

Ozone generators release artificial ozone gas that chemically alters pollutants, particularly smoke particles. They are left to operate independently, making them a popular choice for odor removal. These generators work quickly, typically completing their task within a day, due to ozone’s short half-life and its ability to accumulate in enclosed spaces.
Hydroxyl technology produces hydroxyl radicals, which transform air contaminants into harmless carbon dioxide and water, offering a straightforward and efficient odor removal process that doesn’t rely on masking agents, chemicals, or oils. Hydroxyl technology can run continuously alongside restoration efforts, facilitating the simultaneous removal of smoky or musty odors from fabrics and surfaces while structural repairs are addressed. Devices are strategically placed throughout the affected area and typically yield noticeable odor reduction within a few hours, with full results achieved over a span of a few days.
What to Do While Waiting for Our Certified Technicians
When approaching a structure after a fire, it’s important to exercise extreme caution. If it is unsafe to approach the structure—for any reason—it’s best to wait for our technicians to arrive. However, if it is safe to do so while waiting for our fire and smoke restoration crew, you can:
Open windows and doors to help air the structure out.
Take photos of the fire damage from a safe distance. These images can serve as essential evidence for your insurance claim.
Gather valuable items that are undamaged and easy to remove.
DO NOT Clean Smoke Stains.
Improper cleaning techniques can exacerbate the damage and necessitate more extensive repairs
DO NOT Use Electrical Appliances.
Fires can damage wiring and create electrical hazards.
DO NOT Turn on Lights.
Wet ceilings, exposed wiring, and damaged fixtures can pose serious risks.
The Residential Fire & Smoke Restoration Process
The fire and smoke restoration process at Revive Property Restoration is designed to handle damage of all magnitudes. Whether it’s a small fire that requires basic repairs and deodorization or a larger blaze that necessitates extensive structural repairs, our ultimate goal is to restore your home to its original state—or better. While the process may vary depending on the cause and severity of damage, steps common in the fire and smoke restoration process include:
Our fast-acting team will arrive promptly to evaluate the extent of the damage. We then develop a comprehensive restoration plan based on the severity of the fire and smoke damage, the structure's condition, and the amount of water used for firefighting.
We identify and remove all salvageable contents, including furniture and personal items, to prevent further damage.
Fire damage can often compromise windows, walls, and roofs. To maintain security and protect against further damage, we can board up missing windows and walls and place tarps on damaged roofs.
When water damage is present from firefighting efforts, we extract standing pools before using dehumidifiers and air movers to remove all remaining moisture and complete the drying process.
Once the structure is dry, the detailed restoration process can begin. We use advanced techniques and equipment to thoroughly clean and restore areas and contents affected by fire, smoke, and soot.
Our crews are composed of plumbers, electricians, carpenters, painters, and professionals from many other trades. Structural repairs may involve fixing damaged walls, floors, ceilings, and other integral parts of the structure to ensure your property is restored to its best-ever condition.
A thorough final cleaning helps eliminate any residual soot particles and lingering odors. We utilize specialized cleaning products and deodorizing agents to clean all surfaces—as well as furnishings and HVAC systems—to ensure your space is fresh and clean.
