Service Solutions

Every Surface Type, One Trip

Dry-Chemical Sponge Cleaning

Sponges are swapped frequently, since a saturated sponge starts redepositing particulate.

HEPA Vacuum Extraction

Vacuuming first prevents particulate from smearing once surfaces get wet.

Non-Porous Surface Treatment

Tile, glass, and metal respond well to solvent cleaners that would stain something more absorbent.

Metal Corrosion Prevention

We prioritize metal surfaces early because the corrosion clock starts immediately.

Ceiling & Wall Soot Removal

Ceilings get cleaned first so falling residue doesn't recontaminate clean walls.

Vent & Return Cleaning

Soot pulled into HVAC returns circulates through the whole Ottawa, IL property if left alone.
