What Soot Cleanup Actually Covers

Dry-Chemical Sponge Cleaning

The primary method for lifting soot from drywall and painted trim without smearing.

HEPA Vacuum Extraction

Vacuuming first prevents particulate from smearing once surfaces get wet.

Non-Porous Surface Treatment

Tile, glass, and metal respond well to solvent cleaners that would stain something more absorbent.

Metal Corrosion Prevention

Acidic residue on hardware and fixtures neutralized before pitting sets in.

Ceiling & Wall Soot Removal

Overhead surfaces carry the heaviest particulate load and need careful sponge technique.

Vent & Return Cleaning

Soot pulled into HVAC returns circulates through the whole Bellwood, IL property if left alone.
