Fire in Okemos Home
A fire that started in the dining room of this Okemos home suffered major smoke damage throughout the entire home. Soot webs could be found on the ceilings of the second floor bedroom, on the opposite side of the house. With smoke damage traveling that far, all the contents in the home needed to be packed out and professionally cleaned.

Smoke and soot facts:
- Hot smoke migrates to cooler areas and upper levels of a structure.
- Smoke flows around plumbing systems, seeping through the holes used by pipes to go from floor to floor.
- The type of smoke may greatly affect the restoration process.
Different Types of Smoke
There are two different types of smoke–wet and dry. As a result, there are different types of soot residue after a fire. Before restoration begins, SERVPRO of East Lansing/Haslett will test the soot to determine which type of smoke damage occurred. The cleaning procedures will then be based on the information identified during pretesting.
