Local Andover Fire Damage Remediation Services Available 24/7
You might think of the possibility of fire damage happening in your home and think it most likely could never happen. You are too careful to leave a candle unattended or cook in an unsafe way. However, fire damage can happen to anyone in a variety of ways.
Imagine a scenario where your Andover home suffers fire damage because of a freak electrical fire. You may think it's unlikely, but the cause is more common than it seems like it would be. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), 10% of home fires between 2012-2016 were caused by "electrical distribution and lighting." Living in an older home makes the percentage rise higher, as it is more likely that the electrical work hasn't been checked out by an electrician in a significant time.
Many scenarios could cause a fire to break out in your home, but what is important is how quickly you react to them. Reacting quickly, and calling for help as soon as possible, could mean the difference between being able to save some of your impacted possessions and not being able to. For this reason, you should contact SERVPRO as soon as you can when your home suffers from fire damage.
Here at SERVPRO, we believe in basing our schedule around yours. No matter when your home needs our help, we can be there, whether it is 3 PM or 3 AM. We also believe in getting to your home as soon as possible after your call, because we understand how time-sensitive damage from a fire can be. Furthermore, our employees are highly trained and certified by the Institution of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration (IICRC.)
So, what can we do to help your home after fire damage? Let's say an electrical fire happened inside of your bathroom and severely damaged the vanity, countertop, and the wall behind it. Our SERVPRO techs can remove the vanity and countertop. Let's say the vanity is not salvageable, but the countertop is. We can send it to our facility to be cleaned with house-made solutions designed to lift the grime and soot that fire leaves behind. Our techs can then demolish the damaged wall, removing drywall and insulation. Once finished, we can contact a trustworthy contractor for you who can rebuild the bathroom wall, before installing a new vanity and reinstalling your countertop.
If your home is in urgent need of fire damage remediation, never hesitate to get the help you deserve. Contact SERVPRO of Coon Rapids / Central Anoka County by phoning (763) 712-9712. Day or night, we're here for you.
