Who cleans up fire and smoke damage in Bee Ridge?

Aftermath Restoration Group handles fire and smoke restoration in Bee Ridge and across Sarasota County, 24/7. Call (239) 688-2880 for board-up, soot cleanup, odor removal, and drying of firefighting water.

Can smoke odor be fully removed from a Bee Ridge home?

Only if the residue is removed, not masked. The process is structural cleaning, HVAC cleaning, HEPA filtration, and odor treatment at the end, with ozone used only in unoccupied spaces.

Why does soot need to be cleaned quickly?

Soot is acidic. On metal, stone, grout, and paint it starts to etch and stain, and the longer it sits the more has to be replaced instead of cleaned.
