What Can I Do to Help My Situation?

After a fire, the smoke smell is strong and very unpleasant, even if the fire was contained in one specific room. When you increase ventilation within your property by opening all windows and doors is a good first small step until the restoration team arrives with industrial equipment to further ventilate.

Also, you can clean non-porous surfaces such as tiles, countertops, etc. You can clean such surfaces with soap and warm water to get through that first layer of grime. Use mild soap and a towel you don't mind disposing of.  Harsh cleaning products can have an adverse effect. Therefore, if you are unsure about how to clean please leave it to the experts. Sometimes not cleaning property can lead to further loss.
