Humid air in Arkansas helps smoke odor settle into porous materials, and firefighting water can start mold growth quickly. Drying and odor treatment should begin soon after the property is released.
Storm-related fires and outages
Severe storms in Arkansas cause power outages, and fires from candles, generators, and damaged wiring often follow. Board-up and tarping may be needed for both storm and fire damage on the same property.
