SERVPRO says protect your Garner home from house fires by keeping several fire extinguishers handy.

SERVPRO Is Well Aware of Fire Damage Trends in Garner

If you look at fire statistics, you can discover some unique statistics about this property disaster. For instance, it is the most likely to occur in a home, so there are high chances of doing fire restoration at your Garner home at some point. A significant percentage of fires occur at night in the hours after midnight when people are not alert, which underlines the human factor in most fire incidents.

If you feel you could use some assistance in handling fire restoration at your Garner home, you should realize you are not alone. Numbers show that most fires are sparked accidentally by issues like poor wiring or malfunctioning appliances. Since you did not identify and fix the damaged item that later caused a fire in your house, you may have difficulty planning the fire restoration. SERVPRO provides the skills, equipment, and personnel to manage such damage conveniently.

Necessary restoration resources 

• Dry and wet cleaning resources
• Moisture control equipment
• Demolition and waste management equipment  

Fire restoration may require special skills

Arsonists and other criminal actors account for a small percentage of home fires. For such fires, accelerants are typically used for faster ignition and spreading. If the fire department controls it before your structure is completely consumed, the restoration process may require several unique approaches to restore your home to its preloss state.

Traces of accelerants may remain in the house after the fire. Another likely scenario is that the smoke and soot produced by such substances have unique characteristics that make them harder to clean. Our SERVPRO technicians receive sufficient training on handling soiling from different fires, including protein and fuel oil, so it is easy to identify and address the accelerant residue from your property.

Useful actions when resolving the problem:

• Identifying the type of residue
• Capturing the residues in dry or solution form
• Disposing of the residue
