Fire damage at your East Brunswick home can become a respiratory hazard minefield, requiring diligent work to restore the preloss safety levels. Addressing air quality issues and refurbishing ventilation systems are some tasks SERVPRO® fire restoration technicians take seriously. We can evaluate whether you have a bad odor problem, particulate matter, or clogged air ducts. That way, we can plan the cleaning process to neutralize odors or dislodge residues.

Ways to eliminate odors 

• Chemical neutralization 
• Absorption
• Sealing
• Oxidizing the molecules

Our SERVPRO crews are Here to Help® address odor situations, including those deeply embedded within materials. We use various equipment and products like photocatalytic oxidizers, Ozone generators, and acrylic or alcohol-based shellac sealers. 

Odors and poor air quality may persist if residues and particulate matter remain within the structure. Physical removal is the only way forward, although that is easier said than done since some are embedded while others are concealed. Our crews pursue different avenues to reach and remove residues lodged in materials. We also take action to address particulate matter in the air.

Ways to eliminate particulate matter 

• Air scrubbing, 
• Vacuuming ducts, 
• Changing HVAC filters
