Carpet restoration

We understand why you might have installed carpet flooring in your home. It is soft, smooth, and a better fit for you if you have kids.

The soot and smoke absorb deep within the carpet fabric, making it difficult to clean. Nonetheless, our smoke damage experts in New Berlin make the cleaning less complex through our simple yet advanced cleaning techniques.

Not only do they dry clean your carpets, but they also repair the damaged parts. If you prefer steam cleaning for obvious reasons – it’s an ideal method for deep cleaning – lucky for you, our network offers that, too.

  • Air drying
  • Dry cleaning
  • Freezer drying
  • Dehumidifying

Sanitizing your belongings:

While washing your property and belongings removes soot and smoke stains and might alleviate smoke odor, you certainly need a deeper cleaning to remove it entirely.

Our smoke damage experts understand the value of hygiene. Therefore, they sanitize your belongings to ensure maximum cleaning.

What are sanitization and disinfection?

Sanitization involves removing or reducing the bacteria on any surface. Smoke particles carry strains of bacteria that aren’t visible to the naked eye.

On top of that, the fire extinguishing team sprays certain chemicals that need to be removed.

Washing your belongings after smoke damage may make them visibly clean, but there could be bacteria lingering on them. For this reason, it is crucial to sanitize and disinfect surfaces to target any pathogens hiding deep within the surfaces.

Benefits of sanitization

Any kind of cleaning has its benefits, and there are no two ways about it. The same goes for sanitization; it comes with several health benefits. Whether you experienced smoke damage or not, disinfecting and sanitizing home surfaces is advantageous. Here’s how.

Improves home odor

Whether it’s your home or your grandparents, homes have a specific type of odor. This springs from bacteria and dust on your home surfaces.

Although it is improbable to get rid of all kinds of odor, you can eliminate those that stem from unique bacteria, pathogens, and dust.
Sanitizing your home time and again makes your property smell better.

Kills pathogens

Quality sanitizers remove bacteria, viruses, and fungi from your surfaces. These microorganisms are hazardous for your immune system and promote several health issues.

Fortunately, sanitizers and disinfectants target all pathogens and bacteria, making your home clean and bacteria-free.

Decreases allergies

If you’re allergic to dust, there’s no reason not to sanitize your home frequently. Dust mites could be hiding in your furniture, floors, and windows.
Not only does sanitization targets dust mites, but it also inactivates bacteria, promoting hygiene. So, if you’re prone to seasonal allergies, disinfecting your surfaces is a must.

Reduces respiratory problems

Dust and bacteria-build up in your property cause respiratory problems. Even worse, if you already have asthma, it’ll be exasperating.
You must sanitize your sofa, chairs, tables, windows, and kitchen surfaces to ensure proper hygiene.

Helps immune system

Indeed, bacteria, pathogens, and dust are harmful to your immunity. COVID-19 outbreak has taught us life lessons about the importance of strong immunity.
A weak immune system becomes more prone to colds, viruses, and infections. Your body’s ability to fight these bacteria drops significantly.

Sanitizing home surfaces, especially the places you typically sit on or sleep, is critical to your overall well-being. That said, our network of experts of New Berlin,Wisconsin ensures sanitizing your property and belongings to kill bacteria and pathogens emerging from smoke and soot damage.
