Appliance fires during or after a storm happen more and more often. Contact SERVPRO after fire damage in your home to quickly start remediation.

Our IICRC Certified SERVPRO Technicians are Able to Deal With Many Types of Damage After a Storm

Many homeowners evacuate before severe tropical storms and hurricanes hit the area around Warrington. These residents may find that their home was involved in a fire during their absence. During such an emergency, damage can affect large areas of the home. Some of these areas may include the exterior of the home, also.
 
In the area, returning evacuees do not expect to encounter fire damage in Warrington. When a fire does occur, it can increase the problems already associated with destructive weather events. Fires begin relatively easily in zones designated as disaster sites. Fuel stored for grills, camping, boating and other activities can come into contact with downed power lines or sparks from rebuilding endeavors underway nearby. Shorts in the electrical wiring can spray sparks outward, and power surges in your home can make appliances heat up in abnormal ways.
 
SERVPRO technicians undergo training in restoration procedures specific to fire damage. We have experience in all aspects of restoring homes damaged by fire. Our training also includes the removal of water used by firefighters, or worse, brought in by storms. These are important, too, because haphazard mitigation of these aspects can lead to damage in the future.
 
When a fire burns inside a home, the by-products of that fire include smoke, soot, and odors. Mixed with water, these become even worse. This is another reason why high humidity and heat can increase the perception of odor in a fire-damaged home for months, or even years, afterward. Restoration of a home includes the removal and replacement of destroyed materials, but also the elimination of odor-causing particles and the smoke and soot that can continue to damage your home and your belongings.
