Restoration Process
The process of restoring your home after a fire involves several steps:

- Water extraction
- Salvage and disposal of damaged items
- Thorough cleaning to remove stains and soot
- Deodorization
Types of Soot
Different types of fires cause different types of soot. These are some of the common fire residues that TRILINK deals with:
- Dry smoke residue from a hot, fast-burning fire is powdery and doesn’t smear.
- Wet smoke residue form a slow, smoldering fire is sticky, pungent, and easily smeared.
- Protein residues from a kitchen fire are almost invisible but have a very strong odor.
- Fuel oil soot is the dark soot that results when your furnace misfires.
- Other residues can be left over from fire extinguishers, as well as arson investigations.
We’re glad to answer any questions you have about the specific soot damage you’ve incurred and what can be done to address it.
