Do you cover areas near Walnut?
Is it safe to stay in my Walnut home after a fire?
Often not right away. Damaged utilities, soot, structural problems and poor air can make a fire damaged home unsafe. Ask the fire department when you can enter and ask the restoration company about air quality and the condition of the building.
Can smoke odor be removed from a home in Walnut?
In most cases yes, but the residue has to be cleaned first. Deodorizing without cleaning usually fails because the source is still on surfaces and inside materials. A company may use methods such as thermal fogging, hydroxyl treatment or air scrubbing.
Do you help businesses in Walnut?
Yes. Callers include homeowners, renters, landlords, property managers and business owners. Tell the operator it is a commercial property and whether you need to reopen quickly.
