Even a small fire can cause significant damage. Contact SERVPRO of Tarpon for a quick response.

Fire damage in a hotel requires thorough remediation to remove the damage and odors

After a fire, hotel managers in Tarpon Springs often find themselves relieved that the damage did not spread any further. However, even a small fire can cause significant damage. Eliminating the damage that does exist requires proper handling of the situation. The furnishings in guest rooms might require replacing, or extensive cleaning and other restorative work.   Hotels in Tarpons Springs that sustain fire damage might find that mattresses and other furnishings now hold layers of soot on them. While this problem might not render these items useless, they certainly do keep them from reflecting the level of quality of your hotel's reputation. SERVPRO can often remove the bulk of the soot covering mattresses and their box springs, although they often remain stained by the oils, even with aggressive and thorough cleaning methods.   It is, at times, more cost effective to replace certain items that provide essential aspects of guest rooms, such as lamp shades, draperies, and comforters, instead of cleaning them. When the labor involved becomes intensive and complex, sometimes replacing them becomes the least costly option. We can work with you to decide which options provide your hotel with the best benefit, with the timeliest outcome. We understand that each night your rooms remain vacant equals a loss of revenue.   Carpeting can pose complexities because of the variety of colors, blends, and backings available. To further complicate cleaning your hotel's floor coverings, various items, such as potted plants, furniture, movable equipment such as luggage carts and food service trays all pose areas where discoloration readily becomes apparent. Because of its horizontal nature, floors, especially carpets, absorb a substantial amount of soot particles. These particles not only cause discolored areas and staining, which cleaning might not completely remove, but remaining soot can become a source of pungent odors. We can discuss with you your available options regarding the restoration of your flooring and its coverings so you can make an informed and educated decision that can leave both you and your hotel guests quite satisfied with the results.   Commercial fire restoration should be performed by a certified, professional team such as SERVPRO of Tarpon.  Their team is IICRC certified, local and ready 24 hours a day. Guest rooms must meet strict guidelines enforced by government agencies, and we can help you achieve these requirements. SERVPRO of Tarpon is always available to help the hotel managers and owners in the Trinity, East Lake, and Holiday areas recover quickly after fire damage affects their lodging.
