Faulty wires and appliances are the common causes of residential fires in New York. Some people don’t realize that their casual cooking habits can also trigger massive fires in the house. You can avoid these events with a bit of mindfulness. Yet, accidents and emergencies can happen. In those moments, you must ensure your and your loved ones’ security. Call our restoration experts to initiate the rebuilding process. Our Zicklin Contracting team is trained in soot and smoke cleanup. We also inspect salvageable furniture items, such as wood accents and cabinets. Dealing with affected heirlooms and furniture requires patience and good restoration judgment. After all, you are connected with them emotionally.
Typically, the most cost-effective solution is to restore the damaged decorative work, flooring, and cabinetry after fire, smoke, or water damage. But those decisions have to wait for the assessment made by our fire restoration York service providers. We will see whether they can be repaired, repainted, refinished, and stabilized. However, this will be determined after removing debris like soot and smoke. We may adopt the following practices depending on their condition.
Wood furniture
The wood finish will be affected by smoke and heat. We can apply soot cleaning solutions and polishes to restore it. The professionals will first remove soot from the wood surface through vacuum cleaning. Particles stuck in the grain may require the use of a dry sponge. The surface will be wiped with a wet cloth and left to dry. After this, finishing and conditioning can be done.
