Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration and Cleanup

A fire in your Kutztown home can be very stressful. It can also cause subsequent water, smoke, and fire damage, further impacting your damages. Even small fires can create a large amount of smoke, which affects your personal belongings and possibly your health. It would help if you made some critical decisions fast. Waiting too long to get the damages repaired can create more problems and higher restoration bills.

When fire damage in Kutztown has afflicted your home, acting fast is essential to avoid additional damage from settled smoke and water from firefighting efforts. SERVPRO staff is always available with the proper tools and training to assist you. We also understand that fires are unnerving, so we try to take care of all we can so you can concentrate on your family, including speaking to your insurance company for you.

Immediately after the catastrophe, keep a record of anyone you speak with, including representatives from the fire department. If possible, remove any valuables from your home like jewelry and cash, which could be taken quickly after a fire. You also do not want to throw anything away yet that was damaged.

House Fire Clean Up

When cleaning your fire damaged home, SERVPRO technicians prevent materials from being saturated with cleaning products with surface techniques. The spray and wipe process involves lightly spraying or misting the cleaning product onto the surface, then wiping it with a dry cleaning towel. It is used for cleaning furniture and hard surface contents. Foam cleaning is suitable for cleaning materials that can be damaged by excessive moisture from the cleaning products. By using foam, we use less moisture on the surface than when using a liquid cleaning product.

Please do your best to document all of your items by taking pictures of them. When your insurance claim is made, the damage is looked at, but it must be documented for you to be reimbursed. You should also document any expenses you incur while you are out of your home during restoration, such as living expenses and food.
