-”When you paint over smoke impregnated walls, be sure to use a primer to seal in the smoke odors.”

A professional will tell you that if you paint over smoke impregnated walls, without cleaning them, you will smell smoke again, right about the time the fragrances from the paint dissipate! And you will be smelling it for the remainder of the time you own the house! It is best to call a professional to come in and mitigate the damage and always double check your internet info!

Often times the electricity to your house has been turned off and this means that everything in the refrigerator must go; empty the freezer and refrigerator and prop the doors open with a rolled towel or newspaper to avoid water damage to your floors!

One simple way to limit damage, before the professionals arrive, is to place something between  furniture legs and carpet such as aluminum foil, plastic wrap,  ceramic saucers or wood blocks in order to stop the transfer of dyes that can stain.

Mold starts to amplify almost immediately and can develop visible colonies in as little as 24-48 hours.  When there’s a water disaster, a quick, competent, appropriate and complete response is important to put things right.
