Restoration is The Key for Your Damaged Residential Property

A fire in your home results in ash and soot placement over many indoor surfaces. It is no secret that smoke, ash, and soot damage far exceed fire damage in most cases. There are a variety of dangers that exist when handling these materials.

After experiencing fire damage on your Oklahoma City property, you should never allow children or pets near your home until after repairs are complete. All of your personal belongings, clothes, furniture, and even children's toys are not safe until you have a chance to clean them properly. Professional restoration technicians wear protective equipment to help avoid contact with these substances while they perform their services, you should too.

Attempting to perform cleanup on your own, with a regular shop-vac or home vacuum forces hazardous particles into the air. SERVPRO of South Oklahoma City technicians uses HEPA filtered vacuums to help avoid this problem and fully remove small particles that might otherwise escape detection. All gathered ash piles require specific handling and disposal to prevent public environmental conditions and should never be dumped into storm drains.

Entering your home after a fire without the proper support is certainly not recommended. A professional restoration company, like SERVPRO, can provide you with expertly trained fire damage personnel with years of experience identifying and eliminating possible hazards. It only takes moving or exposing a smoldering piece of wood or other debris to reignite your fire once oxygen becomes available again.

A fire can also rearrange or damage natural walkways, making it necessary to inspect the entire area before entering into your home. Structural damages are not always visible, always have professionals check your stairs, floors, and roof before beginning repairs. SERVPRO’s initial fire damage inspection provides customers with ways to avoid hazardous materials, unstable work surfaces, electrical hazards, and other problems that might go unnoticed otherwise.
