SERVPRO of Greater Sussex County’s Owner, Jack Oliver, and Crew arrive on the scene early Saturday morning to inspect an Emergency Fire Damage located at one of our local area high schools to get the clean-up process started. 

SERVPRO cleans up and restores this commercial banquet hall after a fire caused heavy smoke and water damage to the building. EMS crews were required to get this cleaned up quickly so that scheduled events would not have to be cancelled, and parts of the building could remain open for operations.

SERVPRO of Greater Sussex County boarded up this residential home, for a past job located in Stockholm, and tarped the open roof and wall areas that were severely damaged by a fire. We later also provided services to remove the smoke and soot damages from the ceilings, walls, and other surfaces of this home.

The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” fire damage emergency.

Step 1: Emergency Contact, Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment, Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service, Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present), Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces, Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing, Step 7: Restoration

These were the tight quarters our technician, Daniel, worked in to clean the duct system at a Hamburg NJ fire. Our technician is seen here cleaning the main trunk line of this homes ventilation system.

Detail cleaning from a puff-back smoke damage in a Vernon NJ home. A puff-back occurs when a furnace misfires and pushes smoke throughout the house. The methods and cleaning products used to clean a puff-back are almost identical in cleaning a fire damaged home.

SERVPRO of Greater Sussex County provided Immediate Board-Up Services for this past residential home fire, located in Stockholm, NJ. Fire damage can often compromise windows, walls, and roofs. To maintain security and to protect against further damage, we can board up missing windows and walls and place tarps on damaged roofs. If you Have Questions About Fire, Smoke, or Soot Damage? Give us a call at 973-383-2024.

This home in Stockholm NJ required a pack-out and storage of all items in order to prepare the home for restoration.  We photograph, carefully wrap the contents and serial code each tag to to ensure an accounting of all items removed from the home.
