Steps to Take After a Fire -
If you find yourself dealing with a house fire, you’re likely feeling overwhelmed and confused about what to do next.
After you’ve contacted the fire department and a reputable restoration company such as Restoration 1 of East Lansing, you should take a moment to check on your family and monitor anyone suffering from smoke inhalation and check mental wellbeing too.
Next, you will need to contact your insurance company and provide them with a copy of the fire report. After you’ve arranged for temporary accommodation, you need to chat with your restoration company about the extent of the damage. Fire and smoke damage can wreak havoc on a home, causing problems that you might not see at first glance. Fires can also cause major structural damage, making it unsafe to re-enter your home. Smoke and soot from the fire can destroy your possessions. And there may be water damage from extinguishing the flames.
Our team at Restoration 1 of East Lansing, MI are always here to help. We’ll safely remove and clean any damaged components from your house and restore your property to its former pre-damaged state.
