This stain on a ceiling in a home in Forest City, Pa is a result of the homeowner attempting to clean this oil based puff back himself. He used water in his attempt to remove the soot however he made the issue worse since water caused the soot to embed into the paint and sheet rock making the claim worse.

SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge was called to professionally clean this structure by using chemical sponges which remove the soot without smearing and embedding it thus reducing the claim.

Always call a professional cleaning company with puff backs to ensure proper cleaning and a return to pre-loss condition.
