Fire Damages a Rooftop

SERVPRO Is Certified To Remediate Your Home After a Fire

A universal threat to homeowners, fires, and Palm Coast Fire damage can cause much stress. Even though the fire department could extinguish the flames in enough time that your home is salvaged, it is likely just the start of things. You might need to immediately tarp or board up doors, windows, and the roof so that your property is secured from any more damage because of weather and uninvited looting animal or human guests.

Your belongings and interior of your home will probably be saturated with water that was sprayed from fire hoses to put the flames out. The intense odor of smoke and acidic soot will be all over the place, even in areas which are far from the original source of the fire.

  Fire Restoration Process

Inspection

After you hire SERVPRO to handle your Palm Coast fire restoration, a technician who is certified will come to your home and inspect the damage. We’ll then decide how much damage was done and develop a plan to clean and restore your property. After your insurance company and you approve the plan, we’ll begin the work.

Clear Out Odors

One of the first things we’ll want to do is bring in industrial equipment to get rid of odors and smoke from your home. This step is quite important since smoke can have corrosive substances which will keep damaging your electronics, appliances, surfaces and furniture until it is removed. The equipment will also help to dry out floors and walls which could have been water damaged.

Residue Removal

After odors and smoke are eliminated, we’ll go through and clean soot from ceilings, walls, and floors. This involves several measures to lessen the chance of more damage and the growth of mold. Ceilings, walls, and woodwork will be treated professionally and cleaned to get rid of soot.
We’ll also protect parts of your home which were unharmed by the fire to keep odors and soot from getting into these areas, plus repaint, replace and repair as needed.
