Dishwashers do not work very well on fire residues - the nature of the bond means that the surface usually needs to be wiped to remove the fire residue, or pre-soaked.
Following fire damage or smoke damage we often find that the homeowner
likes to be active and to help by doing
some work. In these cases we suggest
that they hand wash their dishes.
Sometimes they find that the offer
was fuelled by post-incident
adrenaline and they run out of energy.
In these cases we step in to complete
the work.
In all cases if clients want to do some work following fire damage or smoke damage and its safe for them to do so, we will help facilitate this. It reduces our scope of work and charges, and it improves customer morale.
We are able to restore 95% of the fire damaged garments that have undergone triage assessment. We pre-sort and pre-test to ensure that our success rate is very high. The benefit for you is that you only pay for success, not wasted effort.
We carefully process either in our inplant laundry or through a partner company dry-cleaning facility. We can fast track selected garments to meet customer needs, returning these within 48 hours.
You are aware that domestic
electronics now have a very low
replacement price and in many
cases cleaning and restoration is not
cost effective.
However some domestic electronic
equipment has a high value and
industrial equipment is generally very
valuable.
Careful inspection, planning and
methodologies are required to ensure
that we deliver value with our
electronic restoration.
For post fire restoration the chloride
level is a key indicator of restorability.
