Why Immediate Action is Critical
Time is of the essence when it comes to fire and smoke damage restoration. Delaying the cleanup and restoration process can lead to:

-
Mold Growth: Standing water from firefighting efforts can create the perfect environment for mold to thrive within 24-48 hours.
-
Permanent Stains and Odors: The longer soot and smoke residues remain, the more likely they are to cause permanent discoloration and lingering odors.
-
Higher Costs: Delaying restoration often results in more extensive damage, which can significantly increase repair costs.
