Check your home like you would after a storm, but with extra caution. Smoke can cling to walls, ceilings, HVAC, and belongings, even when the flames are gone. If you are dealing with a recent kitchen fire, a smoldering garage, or wildfire smoke drifting in from the west, you need smoke remediation, not just deodorizing. This checklist keeps you moving in the right direction in Mesa, CO, while protecting your health and your property.

If you can do so safely, turn off HVAC to prevent smoke particles from circulating. Then contact a restoration team that handles smoke removal with proper containment and cleaning methods.
