THERMAL FOGGING completed this weekend - Thanks to Ken at ServPro of Plymouth/Wareham
(for those of you who don't know what "Thermal Fogging" is read on).

Fire damaged properties needs special attention and care. In most cases Thermal Fogging is necessary. This process opens the pores in the walls and neutralizes the smoke odor. There is probably no process a home owner could use that would work as effectively as thermal fogging.


During a fire, smoke can permeate walls & other surfaces & drift through household ducts, where it becomes trapped. If not properly removed, smoke odor reoccurs from time to time, especially during warm or damp weather.


To eliminate the smoke / burn smell there is a process known as "Thermal Fogging." This warm chemical fog penetrates your home & walls just as the fire did, neutralizing the smoke odor as it goes. There are many companies out there that you can call on that specialize in "Thermal Fogging". We called ServPro of Plymouth/Wareham and they fit us into their schedule.





The "Thermal Fogging" process took a total of 3 day so we shut down the site to make sure that the smoke smell goes away permanently.
We notified the Plymouth Fire Department and all the neighbors that this process was taking place so that they didn't think that the home was on fire.
Everything went smoothly.
Next up Insulation / Blueboard & Plaster / Painting / Floors..... pretty soon the OPEN HOUSE!
follow us as we finish up in the next few weeks.
