Fireplace fire causes extensive damage

10/15/2019 (Permalink)

Fireplace fires are common in cold weather.

It's not just fire damage. It's smoke, soot, and even water from firefighting efforts.

And it means there's a lot of work to be done in order to restore your property.

At SERVPRO of Lawton, we break down the fire restoration process into 7 basic steps:

Step 1: Emergency Contact

The restoration process begins when you call us. Our representative will ask questions regarding the fire damage event that will help us respond immediately with the appropriate equipment and resources. 

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

We carefully inspect and test adjoining rooms of your property to determine the extent of the fire, smoke, and soot damage. This step is crucial to developing a plan of action. 

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service

Fire damage can often compromise windows, walls, and roofs. To maintain security and to protect against further damage, we can board up missing windows and walls and place tarps on damaged roofs.
