KITCHEN FIRE DAMAGE RESTORATION

Kitchen fire damage. Facts you need to know.

Even after a kitchen fire has been extinguished, the damage continues with the after-effects of smoke, ash, soot and water damage. Trying to clean up the damage yourself—vacuuming, wiping down the walls, handling fabrics, or any other attempt at cleaning—can put you at risk of inhaling the dangerous chemicals present in soot and ash. And, it can also cause further damage to your property.

Should a fire occur in your kitchen, professional fire restoration services are necessary to restore your home to a healthy condition.

Primary concerns after a kitchen fire:

Smoke and soot damage

If smoke, soot and ash are not removed from the fire site quickly, they will continue to cause damage and corrosion to surfaces in your kitchen including fabrics, metals, walls, ceilings, and even tiles. It’s important to begin professional after-fire clean up as soon as possible.

Fire and smoke odour damage

Smoke and ash particles continue to be airborne and can cause permeating odours to remain in your home for weeks or even months after the fire is extinguished. Advanced deodorization tools such as ozone and other professional treatments can effectively eliminate odour from your home after a fire, so you can breathe easy again.

Water damage from fire-fighting

Water used to put out the fire can be devastating to your kitchen floors, walls, furnishings and other possessions. If not taken care of immediately, the excess water in your home can also cause extensive damage to the structure of your home, and quickly lead to the growth of hazardous mold.

Putting Out Cooking Fires

The biggest mistake people make with most kitchen fires is to try and put them out with water. The majority of cooking fires involve either grease/oil or electrical appliances, and adding water will only make these types of fires worse. Instead, you want to deprive the fire of oxygen by smothering it.

Turn off the heat source as quickly as possible, but only if you can do so safely. Then, depending on the situation, and only if there is time, do one or all of the following:

But remember only consider these steps if you can do so safely.

Stovetop Fires

Smother the fire. Try to carefully slide a lid or baking sheet over the fire or dump a box of baking soda on top, both of which will deprive the fire of oxygen and, hopefully, put it out.
Use a properly rated fire extinguisher. Stand eight to 10 feet away and PASS (Pull the pin, Aim at the base of the fire, Squeeze the trigger, and Sweep side to side).
Escape and call 911. If the fire is out of your control, it's time to run and call 911. Make sure to close all doors behind you as you leave. Do not try to salvage any belongings. Saving your life and that of your family is more important.

Oven Fires

Keep the oven closed. An oven is a contained space, so keep the door closed and wait for the fire to burn itself out in there. Opening the oven door to check on it is the worst thing to do.
If the fire escapes, try baking soda or a fire extinguisher. If the fire gets outside of the oven, you can try to put those flames out with baking soda and/or a fire extinguisher.
Escape and call 911. Once again, if the fire is beyond what you can safely manage, it's time to run and call 911. Make sure to close all doors behind you as you leave. Do not try to salvage any belongings. Saving your life and that of your family is more important.
