Apartment building fire
I had an apartment building fire with extensive smoke damage
affecting many apartments with smoke damage only. I have been told by many contractors that when it is near 90f outside and humid the smoke smell will re occur if it is not removed now. It can get to 100f, 85% humidity here, and there is no central air so I have prime weather for re activating the dormant smoke smell. I have been told the high heat periods are when the tenants will complain and move. My question is does smoke that travels through the walls come back into the next apartments through the openings, and outlets , walls? Do any of you have direct fire , smoke damage experiance, and have any ideas on to how far a rebuild has to go? Are there any Fire Pro guys out there? . The job keeps looking worse! I dont want the insurance co to cut me short!! Does anyone have actual fire- apartment- smoke - experiance here, With the building open now, it will be July 2012 before I know if this years work was enough to combat the smoke damage. |
