WHY-US

Why We Classify Surfaces Before Cleaning Anything

01

Porous Vs. Non-Porous Testing

Treating both classes the same way is the most common soot-cleanup mistake.

02

Correct Tool Per Class

Using the wrong tool on either class tends to make the residue worse.

03

Racing The Corrosion Window

Metal fixtures get attention early since acidic residue starts pitting fast.

04

Contained HEPA Extraction

A standard shop vacuum does the opposite of what's needed here.

What Soot Cleanup Actually Does, By Surface Type

SVC-01

Porous Surface Track: Drywall & Trim

Sponges get rotated out constantly since a loaded sponge starts redepositing soot.

SVC-02

Porous Surface Track: Carpet & Textiles

HEPA extraction pulls particulate before any wet cleaning ever touches the fiber.

SVC-03

Non-Porous Surface Track: Tile & Glass

Solvent-based agents lift residue that a dry sponge would just smear across a hard surface.

SVC-04

Non-Porous Surface Track: Metal Fixtures

This track gets prioritized first because the corrosion clock doesn't pause for anything else.

SVC-05

Overhead Surface Sequencing

Sequencing matters as much as the cleaning technique itself.

SVC-06

HVAC Return Decontamination

Vents and returns cleaned on the same visit since they keep redistributing soot otherwise.
