When you have fire damage in your home or business let SERVPRO of Farmington and Farmington Hills come to your rescue. We use three key elements to eliminate damages made by fire, smoke, and soot. 

-Structural Cleaning- After a smoke or fire damage, ceilings, walls, woodwork, carpeting, and floors will often need a thorough cleaning. We will pretest to determine the extent of the damage, and then use the specific equipment and cleaning products required to clean and protect the different types of surfaces found in your facility. Depending on the amount of soot, we may even be able to reduce the cost of recovery by cleaning lighter soot deposits on some surfaces, eliminating the expense incurred with repainting or refinishing.

-Contents Cleaning- All of the restorable contents in affected areas will be professionally cleaned and deodorized. This includes area rugs, furniture, draperies, and upholstery. We begin by carefully inspecting and testing all fabrics in the structure to determine which cleaning methods are most appropriate. We can provide wet or dry cleaning services. Additionally, all the other restorable contents will be cleaned and deodorized to preloss condition. Finally, we can provide an inventory list of all "to be claimed" items if requested. 

-Deodorization- We provide specialized services that rid your place of business of offensive odors left by fire or smoke damage. We do not merely cover up lingering odors with a fragrance, we seek out the sources of the odor and remove them. 

If you have any questions about our processes do not hesitate to call our office, someone is available 24/7 to take your call! (248) 427-1500
