04 Smoke & Soot
Smoke, Soot & Odor

Soot Removal and Odor Elimination in Washington, DC

Soot in Washington, DC properties is acidic. It begins corroding metal fixtures, etching glass, and degrading paint finishes within hours of a fire. Smoke deposits contaminants in HVAC ductwork, wall cavities, and attic insulation - zones that standard surface cleaning never reaches. Our DC decontamination crews use dry ice blasting, HEPA vacuuming, and chemical sponge methods to reach every affected surface.
