Dealing with a fire is hard enough, but having to clean up the residue afterwards feels like salt in the wound. Why not let our professional and experienced team do the clean up for you?
No doubt, a fire in your home or business can cause serious damage—and not just from flames. Once the fire is extinguished, you’ll find many things covered in ash and soot. If not addressed quickly, smoke and soot damage can permanently discolour appliances, tarnish metals, etch glass, corrode other materials, and permeate walls. And anything you want to keep, will have to be carefully cleaned.
But first, understand your risks. The soot and residue left in your building can be hazardous, which is why you should call a professional fire residue removal service to restore your possessions. Soot can be toxic if inhaled or ingested. Professional fire residue removal companies are trained to handle hazardous materials safely and effectively, minimising your risk of exposure.
The most common issues that we see include:
Soot is a fine black or brown powder that is created when organic matter, such as wood or oil, is burned. It can be spread throughout a property by smoke and can settle on surfaces. The sticky residue left behind by a fire is smoke and soot residue. It’s a thick, black substance that can be difficult to remove without the proper tools and techniques. The residue is created when smoke from the fire combines with other particles and sticks to surfaces throughout the property. And it can be particularly difficult to remove from porous surfaces, such as fabric or drywall.
While you should not try to wash fire residue yourself, there are however some things you can do to facilitate fire residue removal services.
At Northern Restorations, our fire soot removal specialists use state-of-the-art cleaning solutions and equipment to remove the sticky residue left behind by a fire. This may include using high-pressure steam cleaners to loosen and remove the residue from surfaces or using specialised cleaning solutions that are designed to break down the sticky residue and make it easier to remove. We’ll use industrial-strength cleaning products, high-powered vacuums, and specialised tools that can remove soot from hard-to-reach places.
Our first step is to perform a careful and thorough assessment of the extent of the damage to determine the best approach for cleaning the affected areas. This includes taking every safety precaution, ensuring there are no electrical or structural hazards or other safety concerns.

The leftover smell of a fire is never something you want lingering around. Not only does it smell bad, it’s also a constant reminder that the fire happened. Smoke, soot and other residues left behind by a fire produce unpleasant odours that can penetrate deep into furniture and upholstery. Our specialised cleaning services can help to remove these odours, as well as provide masking agents for interior spaces so you never have to smell the fire again.
You may not have heard of it before, but corrosion control is the process of preventing & minimising damage to materials (usually metal) caused by exposure to moisture, fire and other corrosive agents. Our team can do this through a variety of special measures and processes. Regular inspection and maintenance are also important, as corrosion can lead to structural deterioration if left unchecked.
