How do SERVPRO techs use chemistry to clean smoke damage from your property?
Smoke and soot particles can form bonds with surfaces on which they settle. It cannot be easy to dislodge these particles by merely scrubbing them. Hence, SERVPRO techs use agents that chemically modify these particles and loosen the bonds.
The most commonly used chemical agents are bleaches. SERVPRO techs use two types of bleaching agents in fire-damaged Suffern properties-
- Oxidizing bleaches: These chemical agents add oxygen to the stains, altering their structure and breaking them down. Chlorine bleach is a good example of this type of agent.
- Reducing bleaches: Often called strippers, they take oxygen away from the stains causing a change in the chemical structure of smoke and soot particles.
SERVPRO techs determine which type of bleaching agent to use depending on the type of the surface involved and the chemistry of the smoke particles.
