Smoke & Fire Damage Decontamination

Smoke & fire damage on roof of house

BioSweep UK provides specialist smoke and fire damage decontamination for properties affected by residual contamination resulting from fire. Following appropriate strip-out, cleaning and other restoration works, smoke odours and combustion residues can remain within building materials, furnishings and internal environments.


Our treatment is designed to address persistent fire-related odours and residual contamination across residential, commercial and managed properties, supporting the wider restoration process and helping prepare affected areas for the next stage of recovery.

Contaminants and Issues We Address


BioSweep UK can manage a wide range of fire and smoke-related contamination, including:


  • Smoke odours and combustion residues embedded in walls, ceilings, and furnishings

  • Particulate contamination from soot and burnt materials

  • Protein fire odours resulting from burnt food and other organic materials

  • Airborne contaminants and VOCs lingering post-fire

  • Surface and material contamination requiring deep treatment


Using advanced BioSweep® technology, our photocatalytic process is designed to break down persistent odour-causing compounds resulting from fire and smoke rather than masking them with fragrances. This forms part of a wider decontamination approach following appropriate cleaning and removal of fire-related residues.


Our Decontamination Process


We follow a structured, science-led process tailored to the contamination and conditions within the affected property:


  • Targeted Decontamination: Treatment of affected surfaces, materials and airspaces as part of the wider remediation process.

  • Odour Neutralisation: Advanced BioSweep® technology targets persistent odour-causing compounds rather than masking them.

  • Surface & Material Treatment: Affected walls, ceilings, fixtures and furnishings may be cleansed or treated where appropriate.

  • Air Quality Support: Air and surface sampling can be arranged where appropriate, with independent laboratory analysis using UKAS-accredited test methods where applicable.

  • Professional Reporting: Structured reporting can document treatment, sampling results and recorded conditions to support insurance and property management requirements.


The scope of treatment depends on the fire event, contamination present, materials affected and completion of any necessary cleaning, removal or restoration works.
