Fire and Water Damage In this Norristown Property

The fire in the basement left behind a dirty, sooty-like coating on the surfaces of this house in Norristown. The firefighters used plenty of water for extinguishing, and the walls were soaked. SERVPRO strives to restore and not replace structural materials and possessions whenever possible. In this case, it was more prudent to tear out the damaged sheetrock in a controlled demolition to both mitigate secondary water damage and to help relieve the interior of the foul odors from the fire and the water. The skeleton was cleaned thoroughly as shown in the After Photo and an antimicrobial spray was applied to inhibit fungal growth. Many insurance companies welcome our expertise in minimizing costs but always doing what is necessary to complete the fire damage cleanup and restoration.
