Fire Damage Restoration

Fire damage can be severe and leave behind many dangerous residues and potential hazards. Entrust any serious fire damage restoration to a professional; do not attempt to restore your home by yourself.
  1. Aftereffects

    • Fires leave behind carbon, residues on the walls, stains, damage caused by smoke, and structural weaknesses where the fire has been. Damaged pipes and weak walls may not be visible to the naked eye.

    Dangers

    • Houses affected by fires may be dangerous for a long time after the fire has gone out. If there has been a gas leak or structural damage, the house may collapse or explode.

    Costs

    • Fire damage restoration can be costly. Walls and home materials may need to be replaced in addition to the service charges of professional cleanup crews.

    Services

    • Professional cleaning services are highly recommended for treating fire damage. They can assess the true damage to a home and make a building truly safe to use again.

    Insurance

    • Fire damage is covered under most home and business insurance policies. Be sure to notify your insurance company if fire damage has occurred; your restoration may be covered.
