Smoke and soot can affect surfaces and belongings beyond the area where flames were present. Ask the provider which materials and areas its cleanup process covers.
Questions to ask a contractor
- Does the provider serve your exact property address?
- What steps are included in the proposed service?
- What materials or rooms may be affected?
- What are the expected costs and timeline?
- Can the provider explain its relevant experience, licensing and insurance?
