Quincy City Hall Fire
A three-alarm blaze that torched part of historic old city hall caused about $1 million in damage. The fire, believed to have been sparked by a thief trying to steal pipes, ruined much of the interior work that had been done as part of a $9 million renovation of the 170-year-old stone building
SERVPRO Medford/Everett used sponge blasting to remove the smoke and fire damage. Sponge blasting is a great solution for residential and commercial fire and smoke remediation.
Pressurized Feed Units propel Sponge Media abrasives to the surface. A centralized control panel provides adjustment of blast pressure and media feed rate allowing for precise control.
Over 25 different types of media Sponge Media are available. Each with a different abrasive or cleaning agent bonded in the Sponge.
Sponge media flattens on impact, exposing abrasive, cleaning, abrading and profiling the surface.
Sponge cells expand, creating vacuum – pulling in debris
Media traps hazardous particles that would have become airborne and rebound with low energy; making cleanup and containment easy.
Recyclers clean and classify sponge media for reuse, separating media from oversized debris and fine waste. 95% of media is recycled.
