Commercial Fire and Smoke Cleanup in Camarillo Brings Back the Ambiance of Your Camarillo Bar

Kitchen fires caused by frying foods at too high of a temperature happen quickly. What might have seemed safe in the past and done several times without incident can suddenly cause a serious problem and shut down your bar in Camarillo. This happens because while serving food is not a strict requirement to stay open, the side effects of a fire can make any building in its entirety unsafe for occupancy.

After a kitchen fire occurs in your bar in Camarillo, relying on commercial fire and smoke cleanup experts is a sound business decision. Many businesses prepare for fire and other disasters by completing a READY Profile. We can assist, if needed, when you fill out your own plan.

Even if you do not already have a Plan completed, SERVPRO can help your business' recovery. Smoke deposits can end up in every location throughout your bar, leaving textiles like upholstery and draperies saturated with strong and offensive odors. When dry soot affects such furnishings, we can vacuum much of the problem away.

When it stems from a grease fire, however, we must often use special cleaning agents that break the soot down. Smaller items can soak in a solution in small tubs, while others might require laundering away from your establishment. We list anything we remove for cleaning on inventory sheets, of which you receive a copy.

Carpets really end up soiled after a fire and can require intensive cleaning. Our building department, under California State License Board (CSLB)'s General Contractor License # 892710, handles any repairs needed, as well as the installation of new carpeting, if you decide to start completely fresh. With the dense, oily soot experienced after a typical kitchen fire, this is often the most cost-effective option for many business owners. We can strip other flooring of smoky films that also create slip and fall hazards.

The walls throughout your bar need stripped of soiling from the smoke, even where it might seem non-existent. Volatile compounds might not have any color to them but can continually give off odors and cause health effects, as well. In the kitchen and in nearby areas, we use specialized cleaners that break down soot and leave the walls smelling fresh because we often rely on citrus-based products. We always provide our customers with technical sheets regarding the chemicals we use.

These cleaning agents also help break the bonds that form chains of soot, which form web-like deposits in corners. We use air scrubbers during the restoration process, as well as deodorization methods like fogging that prevent hidden soot particles from re-entering the air, but these spiderweb appearances can continue to form for lengthy periods.
