One of the biggest mistakes made during fire restoration?
Adding water too soon.
Soot is an ultra-fine, oily contaminant. If you over-wet it before removing as much dry soil as possible, you can spread contamination deeper into the carpet, making the job more difficult and increasing the risk of rework.
The best results start with the right process:
✅ Remove as much dry soil as possible first.
✅ Use the correct chemistry to break down smoke residue.
✅ Extract and rinse thoroughly to remove contamination—not just move it around.
Our recommended system:
• Fire Fix: High-performance prespray for smoke residue
• Oxyboost Plus: Oxygenated booster, with powerful destaining, cleaning, and deodorising.
• Extracta Pro: Powerful extraction detergent that removes remaining residue
