Fighting Corrosion in St. Mary's City After Water Damage and Fire Damage
St. Mary's City, MD, is located on a scenic peninsula where the Potomac River meets the Chesapeake Bay. Maryland's First Capital is considered a living history museum; it served as the seat of government for 60 years. It is the home of many firsts, starting with the first legislator of African descent, Mathias de Sousa, who served in the colonial legislature in 1642. In 1648, Margaret Brent became the first woman to petition for the vote, while the first coffee house in Maryland was established in St. Mary's City in the mid-1600s. Landmarks that preserve this great history include The Maryland Dove, The Brick Chapel of 1667, and The Godiah Spray Tobacco Plantation.
Various annual events liven up St. Mary's City, MD. One of the city's most significant events is Maryland Day, to be held on March 25, 2026 - it celebrates the arrival of the colonists in 1634. Interesting aspects of the event include a ceremony and keynote speakers. MarylandFest is another notable event to be held on March 3, 2026, focusing on Maryland culture with local food, beer, wine, and live music. June 27, 2026, marks another significant day when the River Concert Series begins. The beloved summer tradition held on the Townhouse Green runs through late July.
Effects of Corrosive Soot After Fire Damage
A fire has many effects on properties, including corrosion from the acidic soot deposited by spreading smoke. Chemically, soot is acidic, so when left on surfaces, it can harm the materials. SERVPRO® technicians take steps such as pre-cleaning surfaces and applying protective oil to help protect them.
Outcomes from such corrosion
- Slow death of electronics
- Etched glass and pitted metal surfaces
- Ruined finishes on high-end appliances
Rust and Other Degradation Caused by Water Damage
Water itself is not chemically corrosive, especially when it comes from clean sources. However, metals exposed to moisture for prolonged periods can form rust. The water acts as an electrolyte while oxygen does the rest. Vulnerable items include furniture legs, fittings such as door handles and hinges, and structural connectors. SERVPRO uses multiple methods to protect your property from corrosion, including rapid moisture removal, humidity control in affected rooms, and the application of specialized corrosion-control agents on metal surfaces.
Your property is vulnerable to corrosion after fire or water damage, but SERVPRO can help.

What our St. Marys City
customers are saying
SERVPRO was flexible, professional, and very effective. I felt secure that my cleaned items were actually clean. SERVPRO gave me peace of mind in an incredibly stressful time.
SERVPRO cleaned 3 large area rugs. Tim came and picked them up. He was on time and very polite! My rugs were returned on time. They look beautiful and smell wonderful! SERVPRO was about $300 less then another estimate to have them cleaned.
Tim- thank you so much for your excellent service!
In April 2021 I had the misfortune of water damage cause by my tenant. SERVPRO's Mitigation team worked efficiently and professionally with both me and my tenant, but when it came to the repair work, led by Mr. Pat Cannon, the team went above and beyond. Mr. Cannon's knowledge of the insurance system, superb communication, and general construction knowledge made the situation as painless as possible. I could not be happier to have worked with such a consummate professional. I highly recommend this team for any cleanup and/or restoration.
We are so thankful for SERVPRO, we called them needing our AC units cleaned for summer time- it was a new house and they had black mold in them. Within 24 hours they sent out Eddie who gave a thorough check of the AC Units and educated us on the situation before ultimately suggesting to get new ones. I wouldn’t contact anyone else other than SERVPRO to give me an opinion. I appreciate their honesty and professional opinion when it comes to the air quality in my home. If you need a cleaning service these guys are top notch. Thanks Eddie and SERVPRO team for coming out so fast and helping us determine the best option for our home!
This SERVPRO team was exceptional! They were professional, friendly, hard-working and very polite. They went above & beyond in helping to assist when we were dealing with the mess of flooding within our home. The fact that they travelled from Maryland to assist us in service-starved Texas after the freeze was greatly appreciated. A very great crew!
The team was helpful and professional. I would definitely use SERVPRO again.
