No one expects to have a house fire. Most know that when you have a fire the first thing you do is call 911, but what do you do when the fire is out?

If you have just experienced a house fire we at SERVPRO hope you and your family are safe and healthy. The first thing to do is check with the fire department to see if it is safe to reenter your home, there can be structural damage and reentering can be dangerous. Call your insurance agent to let them know what has happened and they will then help you navigate the insurance claim process.

After speaking with your insurance agent and the fire department, SERVPRO can come in and survey the damage and give estimates on what can be salvaged. SERVPRO's trained technicians can help save many of your items after damage. It is recommended not to attempt to clean any items yourself as you can further engrain soot and smoke into furniture. 

SERVPRO is always here to help and provides 24/7 emergency services.
