Electrical Wires Cause Many Fires in Melrose Homes
One major cause of structural blazes can be faulty electrical wires that suddenly short out. Electrical fires can happen without any warning, and then the flames can grow quickly. Once a fire ignites, it will then start consuming your contents, building materials, and structural components as fuel.
Whenever we perform fire restoration in Melrose, our SERVPRO technicians follow a set of procedures as a part of the emergency services we provide. We first conduct building inspections and look for any potential safety hazards. We then board up the property to prevent intrusions. If the fire department used water to put out the fire, we could dry it out. And if there is no electricity in your house, we can establish emergency electricity.
Next, if the smoke damage is severe, we can deodorize the structure to make it more habitable using thermal fogging or other methods. Then, we can conduct initial cleaning of certain items. For example, if you have to move out of your home, we can clean your contents to be used while you are relocated.
Once we take the mentioned first steps to prepare your structure, we can then conduct the following:
- Fire Damage Restoration
- Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration and Cleanup
- House Fire Clean Up
- Water & Fire Damage Restorations
- Renovating Fire Damaged Homes
- Smoke Remediation
An electrical fire can be tricky to deal with, and if it ever happens to you, it is wise to call SERVPRO of Malden / Melrose at (781) 665-6396.
