Treating both classes the same way is the most common soot-cleanup mistake.
Dry-chemical sponges for porous materials, solvent agents for non-porous ones.
Metal fixtures get attention early since acidic residue starts pitting fast.
A standard shop vacuum does the opposite of what's needed here.

Sponges get rotated out constantly since a loaded sponge starts redepositing soot.
HEPA extraction pulls particulate before any wet cleaning ever touches the fiber.
Solvent-based agents lift residue that a dry sponge would just smear across a hard surface.
Acidic residue neutralized on faucets, hinges, and hardware before pitting starts.
Ceilings get worked before walls so falling particulate doesn't recontaminate finished surfaces below.
A property can look clean and still be recirculating particulate through the ducts.

No return trip needed once the surface classification is done.
You see the plan split by surface class before approving anything.
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, Ferndale
"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, Ferndale, PA
"The HEPA extraction step before any wet cleaning turned out to be the reason our carpet actually came clean." — Homeowner, Ferndale
The wrong method on either class tends to spread or set the residue worse.
Classification happens before any cleaning tool comes out.
Roughly two days under typical conditions, which is why we prioritize metal early.
Cleaning reduces odor, but persistent smell sometimes needs a separate treatment.
Skipping that order is the most common way carpet soot gets set in permanently.
Response times stay short across Ferndale specifically because the corrosion window on metal fixtures doesn't wait.
