Every surface gets classified before any tool touches it in your Frenchtown, NJ property.
Dry-chemical sponges for porous materials, solvent agents for non-porous ones.
Metal fixtures get attention early since acidic residue starts pitting fast.
Fine particulate captured rather than recirculated back into the air.

Sponges get rotated out constantly since a loaded sponge starts redepositing soot.
Wetting a soot-loaded carpet before vacuuming just sets the stain.
A completely different chemistry than what porous drywall responds to.
This track gets prioritized first because the corrosion clock doesn't pause for anything else.
Ceilings get worked before walls so falling particulate doesn't recontaminate finished surfaces below.
Vents and returns cleaned on the same visit since they keep redistributing soot otherwise.
A technician answers and mobilizes the nearest available crew.
No return trip needed once the surface classification is done.
Every surface gets classified and priced before any cleaning starts.
Both tracks get worked through to a final inspection you sign off on.
"I didn't realize our drywall and our tile backsplash needed totally different cleaning approaches until they explained the classification step." — Homeowner, Frenchtown
"They got to our kitchen faucet fast enough that it never even started pitting, which the adjuster said was lucky timing on our part." — Homeowner, Frenchtown, NJ
"Watching them vacuum the carpet before doing anything wet made sense once they explained wetting soot-loaded fiber just sets the stain." — Homeowner, Frenchtown
The wrong method on either class tends to spread or set the residue worse.
We test each surface individually rather than assuming one method works everywhere.
Roughly two days under typical conditions, which is why we prioritize metal early.
Cleaning reduces odor, but persistent smell sometimes needs a separate treatment.
Yes, as long as HEPA extraction happens before any wet cleaning step.
Response times stay short across Frenchtown specifically because the corrosion window on metal fixtures doesn't wait.
