SERVPRO Can Restore Some Soot Damaged Art

After a fire incident in your Setauket home, you may feel like you have lost everything. Treasured memories, documents, and sentimental items could all incur some damage. Soot is one of the primarily hidden aspects of a fire loss and a significant contributor to property damage. This black coating can linger on surfaces and get inside your appliances, electronics, and other items, and the longer it remains, the harder it is to clean. Soot is acidic by nature and can cause extensive corrosion to various objects.

Hiring a fire damage restoration company in Setauket is crucial to getting the job done right and rapidly. SERVPRO's goal is to restore your artwork to preloss conditions by selecting minimally invasive treatments to maintain the physical integrity of your piece. Careful evaluation is required before proceeding with this type of restoration. Typically, an art curator or specialty shop fulfills the rehabilitation following a house fire.

Dealing with soot-damaged artworks

Heat, flames, and smoke can cause significant damage to artwork, but with the proper treatment and skills, it can often be reversed. SERVPRO is suited to perform the restoration of your smoke-damaged painting if minor residues are present. We understand the importance of timeliness concerning a fire-damaged picture. The damage can worsen if not treated quickly or shipped out for advanced professional restoration. Factors that determine the cleanability:

? How hot the fire got

? How close the fire reached to the painted surface

? Nature of the actual residue

? The painting's physical make up

Paintings present unique cleaning challenges due to the materials and the item's value.
