When Fire Damages Your Business, Trust Experienced Professionals for Cleanup and Restoration

Use an Experienced Commercial Fire Damage Unit Operating here in Spokane

A customer-facing business such as a restaurant is full of small maintenance tasks for staff and janitorial teams. From time to time unexpected events can occur that go beyond the scope of your in-house team and require professional assistance. A contained kitchen fire can cause temporary closure to remove unpleasant odors as well as visible signs of smoke and soot deposits. For the best results, specific training in odor control and fire restoration are essential.

Temporary closures as a result of commercial fire damage in Spokane and the surrounding area can cause loss of revenue; especially during busier times of the year. SERVPRO of Northeast Spokane uses local technicians in a rapid response unit. These teams are made up of technicians with IICRC certificates as well as experienced project managers and are used primarily for commercial services. Smaller fire incidents can be serviced with smaller task forces.

The benefits of a specific commercial unit are that we can communicate directly with you throughout the cleanup and restoration process. SERVPRO of Northeast Spokane operates call-lines 24 hours a day and can send a team quickly upon receiving a notification of loss. Although we work to a "restore rather than replace" method, we can inventory any non-salvageable items like charred furniture for you to pass on to your insurance adjuster. We are an established provider of commercial services and, as such, have experience dealing with a variety of local adjusters as well as the Chamber of Commerce.

One of the common concerns business owners tell us is the unpleasant odors that can be left behind by fire. Our method is to use water-based thermal foggers. These equipment vaporize pairing agents which are then released in a thick fog inside the affected area — pairing agents bond with odor particles causing them to sink to the floor where they can be cleaned away. By using water-based foggers, we can reduce the airing time required after deodorization and keep closures to a minimum.

We can also deploy HEPA filtered air scrubbers and hydroxyl generators to help trap motes of soot and odor and chemically neutralize airborne odors. Use and placement depend on the nature of the fire loss and the business.
