This Buckner Terrace home in Dallas had a fire that was beyond simple fire restoration services of limited demolition and cleaning. A decent number of home fires occur when the resident is home and are stopped quickly before severe damage is done. Unfortunately, there are times when the resident is not home, typically at work or on vacation, and the fire department is called only after a neighbor discovers blatant evidence that a fire is occurring. Make sure that you have smoke detectors and that they have fresh batteries. Even better, there are now Smart smoke detectors that link to your phone to alert you anywhere and anytime. Use this emergency preparation as an opportunity to get to know your neighbors just in case a fire or other incidences happen. If you have a fire and need fire restoration services, give the SERVPRO of Dallas Central team a call.
