Helpful tips until SERVPRO of Savannah arrives to assist in the fire damage:

• Limit movement in the home to prevent soot particles from spreading and additional damage from occurring.
• Place clean towels or old linens on rugs and high traffic areas and upholstery.
• Coat chrome faucets, trip and appliances with petroleum jelly or oil.
• Place aluminum foil or wood blocks between furniture legs and wet carpet. 
• Do not wash any walls or painted surfaces.
• Do not shampoo carpet or upholstery.
• Do not clean any electrical equipment.
• Do not send clothing to a dry cleaner since improper cleaning may set smoke odor. 
• Keep hands clean. Soot on hands can further soil upholstery, walls and carpets. 
• If electricity is off, empty freezer and refrigerator completely and prop doors open.
