Things to Know About Fire Damage

Those who survive the fire with minimal or no damage to their homes are very fortunate, but recovery may still take some time. This is particularly true if the fire was close enough to your home to cause soot, smoke or water damage. And, even if the fire never threatened your home, fires occurring miles away can still deposit ash and cause your home to smell like smoke. Before any fire cleanup efforts begin, you must ensure that the area is safe. Confirm that evacuation orders have been lifted and assess your property. If your home or property sustained damage that you need to report to your insurance company. If your home experienced significant fire or water damage, it is best to hire a company that specializes in this type of cleanup to do the work for you.
