What happens after a fire accident?

You may be anxious to clean your home after a fire, but unless you take the time to get professional advice, you may be wasting your efforts or creating further damage. Contact a professional service immediately once the fire is out. They can provide advice on restoration or replacement of damaged items. 

Why there is a need to hire a professional fire restorer? Fire restorers can prevent further damages, help determine which items can or cannot be refurbished, provide estimates and services for thoroughly cleaning and deodorizing your home. Professional services at times can be expensive, but the cost may be substantially less than the cost of replacing damaged furnishings and floors. 

Preventing Further Damage

Before hiring a professional fire restorer to do the big tasks, you can minimize further damage by following these guidelines. Before starting with the tasks you need to be sure that its safe enough to re-enter your home, ask for expert advice. Get the air moving. Open windows to ventilate areas. Install a fan to circulate  air. 

Note: If there has been substantial water damage and the weather is warm, you will probably need to keep the windows shut and run a dehumidifier. In cold weather, your heating system is operating and the cold air will usually help remove the moisture.

Dry wet items as soon as possible. Use fans and dehumidifiers to dry carpets and draperies. If not thoroughly dried, carpets and floors underneath may be quickly damaged beyond repair by mould and mildew.

Remove brass and copper items and clean them using brass or copper cleaner. Place aluminum foil or plastic food wrap under furniture legs. Remove oriental rugs or other colored rugs from wet wall-to-wall carpeting. Cover dry, clean items with plastic while repairs are in progress.

Benefits of Dry Ice Blasting

Dry ice-blasting is a form of abrasive blasting, where dry ice, the solid form of carbon dioxide, is accelerated in a pressurized air stream and directed at a surface in order to clean it. 

Dry Ice blasting is a more technical, effective and advanced way of cleaning compared to other traditional cleaning methods. 

Benefit #1: Decrease of time because of Cleaning In-Place

Typical cleaning procedures require that equipment be disassembled and moved to an assigned area for proper cleaning. That is not the case with dry ice blasting. Therefore Dry Ice Blasting saves time and helps in faster working process.

Benefit #2: Faster and More Thorough Cleaning

With dry ice blast cleaning, a superior clean can be achieved while reducing hours when compared to scrubbing with abrasive pads or wire brushes. A tremendous labor savings is accomplished.

Benefit #3: Elimination of Equipment Damage

Dry ice blasting often eliminates equipment damage. Dry ice is non-abrasive to surfaces and does not change a surface’s structure. It lifts the contaminants away. And because equipment can now be cleaned in place, potential damage from moving equipment to and from a dedicated cleaning area is also eliminated.

Benefit #4: Reduction or Elimination of Solvents

Dry ice blasting uses no solvents, but instead uses harmless CO2 pellets. This can be a critical need for certain companies in order to comply with environmental regulations or to improve worker safety.

Benefit #5: Reductions in Waste Disposal

With other cleaning methods, whether it be with solvents, sand blasting or some other means, the cleaning agent becomes a secondary contaminant and must be disposed of as toxic waste along with the primary contaminant. However, with dry ice blast cleaning because the CO2 pellet vaporizes upon contact, the only waste created is the contaminant itself. 

Benefit #6: Increased Safety

Dry ice blasting pellets are non-toxic, non-hazardous creating advantages to the environment, your employees, and production facility.

Proper sewage cleanup is necessary

Always practice for proper hygiene! Sewage spills can harm your health adversely and give you lots of problems health-wise.

Dirty or contaminated water is the world's biggest health risk, and continues to threaten both quality of life and public health. Running water picks up toxic chemicals, dirt, trash and disease-carrying organisms along the way. 

If you have items contaminated by flood waters or sewage spills, proper cleaning and disinfecting procedures should be followed to prevent illness. Raw sewage contains biological agents such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites that can cause serious illness and even death. Always presume that floodwater is contaminated with sewage so there is a need to take precaution before coming in contact with any of such water streams.

Contaminated water is not only harmful to mankind but also fish, birds and wildlife. So there is a need to prevent contamination of water whenever possible and hire professional services to handle the situation properly. 

In the urban areas, water gets contaminated in many different ways, some of the most common reasons being leaky water pipe joints in areas where the water pipe and sewage line pass close together. Sometimes the water gets polluted at the source due to various reasons mainly due to the inflow of sewage into the source.

Sewage cleaning should be taken very seriously; it also shouldn’t be carried out by a common man. It is a high-risk cleanup, it can give you a lot of diseases or sickness. Professional help is required for such matters.

The global water crisis claims 3.4 million lives each year: Act fast!

How Crime scene clean up works

Crime scene cleanup is a term applied to specific situations involving blood, bodily fluids and other potentially infectious materials, it is also referred to as biohazard remediation because crime scenes are only a portion of the situations in which biohazard cleaning is needed. 

Some of the types of crime include:

• Suicides
• Homicides
• Decomposition or unattended death
• Mass trauma
• Industrial accidents
• Infectious disease contamination
• Animal biohazards (e.g. feces or blood)

Deaths or suicides can be a messy scene, with blood on the wall and fluids all over the place, things all scattered around, etc. Police officers are at the scene investigating the death or suicide, compiling to a chaotic situation. The place is sealed and only authorized members can enter in the marked territory. 

Weak hearted people and people who cannot bear seeing blood are advised not to go anywhere close near such crime scenes. In the earlier times, after going through a shocking event of your family member or friend getting killed or committing suicide, the family members were still forced to clean the blood and fluids and removing of the corpse. 

In the late 90’s, a whole new industry called ‘crime scene clean up’ was born; to help and give protection to the ailing families after the crime had occurred. Professionals are involved in cleaning these crime scenes; it also requires a significant amount of training and special knowledge to complete the job properly. The job is hazardous, grueling and not for the faint-of-heart. And only personnel with a trained license can carry out this job.

Cleaning a former Meth Lab

Meth labs are undoubtedly highly dangerous. Many of the meth labs that have been set up in the past leave behind many residues which can be highly dangerous to human health. 

So, first of all you need to find out whether your house, building or property was a meth lab previously. How do we find out? Here are some of the sicknesses that people living in a former meth lab suffer from:

• Shortness of breath 
• Liver or kidney damage 
• Dizziness or headache 
• Burns to eye, nose and mouth. 

Once any of the above signs are noticed in any person living in the property, a proper professional should be instantly hired to inspect the property.

After the necessary inspection is done and details are noted down, a report is generated. This report is very important for cleaners to know what the exact situation of the place is.

A certain procedure is followed to clean the affected property. To begin with, an on-site inspection of site is done, followed by checking the meth lab percentage before and after clean-up, contamination and removal and disposal, cleaning of plumbing systems, cleaning of HVAC’s, review of property and recovery report.
