Home · Services · Soot Removal
Removing soot from walls, ceilings, appliances, and fixtures before its acidity etches and permanently stains surfaces.
Soot removal is a chemistry exercise before it is a cleaning one. Wood soot, plastic and protein soot, and wildfire ash each need different handling, and the wrong first wipe smears all three. In Hemet's single story ranch stock, soot travel follows the duct runs and the attic; the scope maps soot by room and by surface, because porous and nonporous materials are priced and cleaned on different lines.
Soot is the clock in a fire loss. Within 24 to 48 hours its acidity starts permanent damage to metals, grout, and finishes, and within days it can yellow plastics and set stains that cleaning cannot reverse. Do not vacuum it with a household machine and do not wet wipe it; both spread it.
