Tips to Help with Flooring Clean-Up Post-Fire
If your home wasn't damaged, but has suffered the effects of smoke, soot and ash you are likely faced with considerable cleaning to restore your home. As part of our Fort McMurray fire relief efforts, we would like to try to help you save your flooring if at all possible. The following are some tips for cleaning after a fire that we thought you might find useful:
- Begin by thoroughly vacuuming all of your flooring. To help prevent soot and fine ash from re-entering the air, use filters that are designed to capture drywall dust if your vacuum uses disposable filters. For vacuums with filters that can be cleaned, clean them often throughout the process.
- For laminate and wood flooring, we recommend the specialized cleaners recommended by the manufacturers, such as Bona or Armstrong laminate and hardwood cleaner. Be sure to use the least amount of water possible and do not allow any water to sit on the surface of your floors. For tile, linoleum or luxury vinyl plank, we like Armstrong Once and Done.
- Cleaning carpeted floors is a bit more challenging. We highly recommend a deep steam cleaning with a good deodorizing product. The soot and ash settle deep into the fibers of your rug and the smoke clings to fabric, making these extra measures necessary.
