SERVPRO of San Diego City SW Makes Smoke Damage Look "Like it never even happened."
Large Fires, Small Fires: Both Cause Large Amounts of Damage
Those of who live in San Diego know that smoke damage can come from fires located far from our homes or businesses.
Anyone who has experienced a small kitchen fire knows that even a small and short-lived blaze can cause major smoke damage.
Smoke damage is more than unsightly. If smoke damage caused only a stain on the ceiling or a splotch on the wall, people could paint over it and forget about.
Unfortunately, the damage does more than cosmetic. Worse, the longer the smoke damage contacts a surface, the more it continues to cause problems. Smoke and soot particles:
- Corrode electronic equipment and wiring
- Destroy fabrics, tile, other flooring, drywall, wood, and paint
- Weaken support beams, concrete, and even metal
- Crumble air ducts
- Leave odor particles

Emergency services are always available, and we do mean “always”. Delays make disasters worse, so we’re prepared to come out on holidays, weekends, and before or after business hours (even at 4:00 am).
SERVPRO of San Diego City SW aims to prevent further damage as it remediates buildings and belongings from existing damage.
Smoke Damage is Stealthy
Smoke travels with air currents, so smoke particles and soot can end up in places that fire never touched, or that seemed to be closed off from the rest of the building. We are trained to look for smoke damage, and therefore find it in places others would not think to look.
We know to expect smoke damage:
- Between ceilings and the above floors
- Behind walls
- Inside closets, cabinets, electronic equipment
- On wiring, even behind walls
- Inside and outside air ducts
- Under the roof
- Inside closed rooms
- Both sides of windows
- Attics and crawl spaces
- On top of window treatments
- Behind wall hangings or other kinds of artwork
- Around structural studs on ceilings
- In and around vents
- On the roof
- On and under ledges
After a thorough assessment, we will do the following:
- Remove visible smoke and soot damage from all surfaces, including HVAC and other ducts
- Clean and disinfect
- Remove odors
