Description of Work

Deerfield, IL – JCR was called to a residence where smoke damage was present from a closed fire place flue; the owners started a fire and
the home filled with smoke. The fire department was called and handled; no water was used. The fire department removed the burning firewood from the fireplace and took it outside. Smoke damage was present in the living room, kitchen, pantry, mudroom, and hallway. All
surfaces and contents in these areas required cleaning.

Fire mitigation included detail soot cleaning in all impacted rooms, air ducts, and the stone around the fireplace. Smaller contents affected were cleaned on site by the smoke mitigation team, while larger contents like furniture and bedding were taken to JCR’s contents
processing center. Reconstruction included painting ceilings in the living room and kitchen, painting walls in living room, kitchen, mud
room, and painting the fireplace mantle.
