SERVPRO Follows Established Fire Restoration Processes in Fort Lee Properties

The period following a fire damage incident can be confusing because of the many problems left in a property, including soiling, hazards, and material deterioration. However, if you know the things that need to be done, restoring your property becomes easier.

Addressing fire damage at your Fort Lee home requires a mix of quick action, the right knowledge, and an assortment of equipment. Rather than struggling to learn and implement mitigation procedures simultaneously, you can get comprehensive help from SERVPRO in salvaging valuables and restoring your home.

Advisable actions after a fire incident include:

  • Securing the property
  • Informing all relevant people
  • Cleaning all residues
  • Repair structural damage

Securing your property can mean different things. The most common way to secure it is by boarding up windows and doors or installing roof tarps if there is a cave-in. Another aspect of securing the property can involve valuable documents affected by fire or the water used to quell it. Our SERVPRO technicians help by using advanced procedures such as freeze-drying to save wet documents.

After a fire incident, different parties must be involved, including the insurance company and local authorities, for issuance of permits or fire investigation. If you live on rented premises, you must also inform the owners. SERVPRO crew chiefs ensure that you contact all relevant people.

For many people, doing cleanup and structural repairs is what signifies restoration. However, if not properly planned, these actions can create more problems or damage the property. Our SERVPRO crews ensure any cleanup and structural repairs are done safely and effectively. Typical ways to ensure this include choosing the right tools and chemical agents and using PPE while venturing into the damaged areas.
