Basement Fire Damage in Boothbay, ME

Soot tags occur from a synthetic/ petroleum based source burn. During a furnace malfunction or fire, soot circulates throughout the home. Hot air and smoke moves towards cool air when trying to equalize the temperature. In the areas with less circulation the soot tags will begin to form and can look like soot has landed like spider webs. 

It is common for our crews to hear homeowners terrified by how dirty their homes look after a fire. These tags can appear immediately so stay away from them with water and wet agents as they can smear and stain.
