Comprehensive Soot & Smoke Cleanup

Fire damage is complex. You have the charring from the flames, the water damage from the hoses, and the pervasive smoke damage. We specialize in smoke damage cleaning and soot removal from walls and ceilings. Different types of fires (protein, wood, plastic) create different types of smoke webs. We match the cleaning chemical to the type of soot to prevent smearing and permanent staining.

The Science of Deodorization

Masking the smell with air fresheners doesn't work. The smoke odor particles are embedded in the pores of your wood and drywall. We use ozone treatment for smoke odor and thermal fogging to penetrate these materials. This process breaks down the odor-causing molecules, ensuring that "smokey smell" doesn't return on hot, humid days months later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you remove smoke stains from brick? Yes. We use specialized latex soot sponges and heavy-duty degreasers to pull soot out of porous brick fireplaces and walls.
What is a "board up"? If the fire broke windows or burned through the roof, we install plywood boards and tarps to secure the property against looters and weather.
How do you clean clothes that smell like smoke? We work with specialized textile restoration dry cleaners who use ozone washing processes to remove the odor from clothing and linens.
Do you handle the rebuild? We work closely with licensed fire damage repair contractors to transition seamlessly from the cleanup phase to the reconstruction phase.
Why does the smoke smell come back? If the structure wasn't sealed or if charred wood wasn't removed/encapsulated, the smell can return. We use sealants to "lock in" any remaining odor on structural framing.Call 24/7: Get an Immediate Crew On-Site

Plans for the State Normal school were initiated in 1903, and required a year for the State of New Jersey to grant permission to build the school. It was then established as New Jersey State Normal School at Montclair, a normal school, in 1908 approximately 5 years after the initial planning of the school. At the time, Governor John Franklin Fort attended the dedication of the school in 1908, and the school was to have its first principal Charles Sumner Chapin that same year. The first building constructed was College Hall, and it still stands today. At the time, the campus was around 25 acres (100,000 m2), had 8 faculty members and 187 students. The first graduating class, which numbered at 45 students, contained William O. Trapp, who would then go on to win the Pulitzer Prize for journalism in 1929. The first dormitory was then built five years later, in 1915, and is known as Russ Hall.
