        "text": "While minor smoke residue on hard, non-porous surfaces might be manageable with household cleaners, cleaning smoke-damaged furniture yourself is generally not recommended for significant damage. Smoke particles are microscopic and penetrate deeply, and consumer products often lack the specialized agents and equipment needed for effective soot and odor removal. Improper cleaning can also spread soot, set stains, or worsen odors. Professional restoration ensures thorough cleaning without further damage.",
