What Soot Cleanup Actually Covers

01

Dry-Chemical Sponge Cleaning

The primary method for lifting soot from drywall and painted trim without smearing.

02

HEPA Vacuum Extraction

Fine soot pulled from carpet, upholstery, and HVAC returns before any wet cleaning begins.

03

Non-Porous Surface Treatment

Different chemistry entirely from what porous drywall needs.

04

Metal Corrosion Prevention

We prioritize metal surfaces early because the corrosion clock starts immediately.

05

Ceiling & Wall Soot Removal

Ceilings get cleaned first so falling residue doesn't recontaminate clean walls.

06

Vent & Return Cleaning

Soot pulled into HVAC returns circulates through the whole El Cerrito, CA property if left alone.
