Fire Damage and the Restoration Process

One of the worst things a property or business owner can experience is fire damage. As the fire spreads more throughout the household, the damage increases. However, this is not the only factor. Fire trucks will have to arrive to bring the fire down. Those fire trucks will extinguish the fire using water. This stops the fire, but leads to an extra variable to consider when restoring the home

• In most cases, large amounts of water - either from fire hoses or sprinkler systems - was used to extinguish the fire; water damage must be mitigated and restored along with the damage caused by the fire itself

• Soot and smoke will adhere to upholstery, furniture, and other appliances after a fire. It is the responsibility of the restoration company to use the appropriate detergents and cleaning agents to make sure that any smoke damage and soot damage on the floors, walls or appliances has been completely removed

• The fire restoration process is designed to ensure the house is brought back to the state it was in before the fire. To make this happen, the commercial fire damage restoration experts assess the damage caused by the fire after the cleanup and give a quotation of what is needed to be done, and the cost

SERVPRO understands the concerns of the homeowner and their dire need of solving this problem as soon as possible. Which is why we perform quickly and efficiently to make it "Like it never even happened."
