Fire Damage Repairs
Property owners don’t dream of losing everything to a raging fire. Dealing with damage from fire has never been part of any homeowner’s plan either.
Unfortunately, here in Northern California, we are faced with record hitting numbers of fires. The effects can be devastating, heart-wrenching, and could cause an emotional breakdown. Sometimes, the electrical setup in our homes could lead to a fire, other times our appliances may be defective.
Say, the inevitable happens. What steps should you take?
It is in our human nature to panic. We understand the stress of losing property and sentimental valuables. We need to brace ourselves for the challenging tasks ahead of us.
After the fire has been managed, the remnants of the property need to be assessed for mitigation and restoration purposes.
The National Response Team will help restore your property by following these steps:
Boarding Up
If the fire destroys doors and other openings, it is important to seal them to prevent further damage by external elements.
It can also protect your belongings inside from theft or vandalism.
National Response Team takes extra care making sure your property is secure while your away.
Drying Out
Fire is often associated with water damage in a number of ways:
- Water from firefighters
- Damaged plumbing systems leaking water into your house
- Rain and snow may penetrate following a roof collapse due to fire
During fire damage mitigation, special equipment is brought in to remove moisture and humidity throughout the house.
