How we clean it
The method
Dry ice is the specialty method. It removes soot and char from framing, joists and steel without soaking a structure that's being dried, pulls residue out of open wood pore instead of sealing odor in, and leaves no media in every cavity of the building — unlike soda or sand.
What it costs you
Why it matters
The GC and the carrier are both paying for schedule. Dry ice can materially shorten the cleaning phase, and documented removal supports the estimate when the adjuster reviews it.
