Chemical sponges lift soot instead of smearing it further into the surface.
Porous drywall gets different treatment than glass, tile, or metal.
Local crews mean faster arrival before damage compounds.
Standard vacuums push soot particles back into the air — ours don't.

Sponges are swapped frequently, since a saturated sponge starts redepositing particulate.
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.
Cleaned on the same visit, not a separate appointment.
A technician answers and mobilizes the fastest available crew.
Crews arrive with HEPA vacuums and dry-chemical sponges on board.
Surfaces assessed by type before a written price is quoted.
Nothing closes out until you've inspected the result.
"We tried wiping the soot down ourselves and just smeared it worse across the wall. Their dabbing technique actually lifted it cleanly." — Homeowner, Los Altos Hills
"They caught the soot on our kitchen faucet before any real pitting started, which the adjuster said saved us a hardware replacement claim." — Homeowner, Los Altos Hills, CA
"The HEPA vacuuming before the wet cleaning made a noticeable difference — our carpets came out cleaner than expected." — Homeowner, Los Altos Hills

We prioritize metal fixtures early specifically because of that window.

Particulate removal and odor neutralization are related but distinct services.
