SERVPRO Addresses Fire Damage in Mill Basin Conveniently
Any device that produces heat runs the risk of creating a fire. Therefore, portable space heaters, electric blankets, and similar appliances placed too close to flammable materials, such as fabrics, can trigger significant property damage. Equally, heaters that require fuels, such as kerosene, are a risk if not properly maintained or left unattended. Since prevention may not always work, you can rely on fire damage restoration to help reverse the destruction from fire returning your Mill Basin home to its preloss conditions.
Fire restoration in your Mill Basin home involves debris, soot, and odor removal from the structure. Contents cleaning and safe disposal of hazardous chemicals such as lead and asbestos are also essential. SERVPRO has the tools necessary to restore your home safely and efficiently, from the initial site inspection and insurance claim assistance to cleaning up and repairing damages.
Fire restoration can be categorized as
- Property protection through board-ups
- Demolition to remove destroyed materials
- Reconstruction and installation of new materials
Restoring a property after a fire takes several steps, starting with preventative measures to avoid further damages. Heat can cause a surprising amount of damage to your house, including shattering glass windows. Before repairs, a property board-up is necessary to protect your home from weather elements and vandalism.
Contents cleaning and restoration
During fire damage cleanup, SERVPRO technicians consider different aspects of achieving the desired results. Our crews select a particular cleaning method for each item after examining the nature of the fire which caused the damage. The main difference is whether there is powder residue from burning natural substances such as wood and paper. If so, we utilize dry vacuuming as part of our cleaning procedure.
