How We Can Help You Recover After a House Fire | SERVPRO of Wilshire Center
11/29/2023 (Permalink)

No homeowner ever wakes up one morning assuming that a house fire is going to start on his or her property. House fires are almost always unexpected and can take your family by surprise day or night. If a fire does break out, it can cause chaos in your household and can become a dangerous situation really quickly.
While suffering a house fire is certainly scary, dealing with the aftermath of a fire is another thing entirely. However, using the right restoration company can ensure a smooth transition into a full recovery.
That’s where SERVPRO of Wilshire Center comes in! Our team is dedicated to helping our community overcome house fires and we will be there for you from start to finish.
Our First Contact
We jump into action as soon as you call us. We will quickly identify the emergency contact for the project and then start asking questions about your fire. We will ask how it started, where it spread to and the extent of the damage you see.
This will help us gather the right team and right materials for your project! We will also get your insurance information down so we can start the process of connecting with your insurance agent about your claim.
Once we arrive at your home, we will secure it to prevent further damage from occurring while we work. We can board up broken windows or secure tarps over your roof or damaged walls to keep out moisture and pests. Did you know that most homes that suffer fire damage also suffer water damage? The water used to put out the fire may stop the flames, but it can also cause another restoration issue to come into play.
The Repair Process
We will work quickly to remove damaged debris and any standing water or hidden moisture, and then we will get to work on the restoration plan for each affected space. Depending on the extent of the fire, we may need to tear down and rebuild entire sections of your home.
We will also take a full tour of your home to check for soot and smoke damage. Soot and smoke can travel to parts of your home that were never even touched by the fire.
Now that your space is ready for the next step, we move forward with a deep-clean and sanitization of your space. We will clean every surface as well as tackle smoke odors. This will include upholstery cleaning, carpet cleaning and any special deodorization processes that are necessary.
The Reconstruction
House fires can cause serious structural damage in a short amount of time, but not to worry! Our team will work methodically through your home to rebuild anything that was damaged.
We are a full-service construction company on top of being experts at restoration projects, so we will make sure your home is returned to its pre-fire condition as quickly and as thoroughly as possible.
