Our Game Plan For Fire Remediation

2/25/2021 (Permalink)

When a devastating fire occurs in your Medfield, MA commercial or residential property, it is hard to think ahead to the recovery process. You may not even know where to begin moving forward. Once the signs of a fire are cleared away, you may still smell the smoke over the long term. Every fire is inherently different, but the certified professionals at SERVPRO of Natick/Milford can help you get to the bottom of the issue through a standard fire procedure.

The Beginning

Once emergency services (if required) extinguish the fire, SERVPRO of Natick/Milford can come in and begin the remediation process. After the smoke clears and the dust settles, our Disaster Remediation Teams of specialists will move in. Depending on the type of damage presented from the fire, the technician will follow a proven game plan. 

Our technicians will carefully inspect the surrounding area and test the damaged sections to determine the extend of any structural damage. They always apply a restore before replace approach, ensuring that they will avoid anything that might exacerbate the damage. While they're inspecting and testing, they will walk you through the process and share the game plan.

Executing The Plan

Depending on the severity of the fire damage, our technician will ensure the security of your property. If necessary, they will board up missing walls and windows, and if necessary set tarps to maintain your privacy and prevent the outdoor elements from gaining entry.

Many people don't realize that water damage appears almost at the same time as smoke damage. To rid the situation of water, our technicians use a combination of extractors and dehumidifiers. 

After water and moisture remediation is complete our Disaster Remediation Technicians will focus on odor removal. To avoid agitating troublesome particles within the damage area, the technician will remove smoke and soot damage with extreme care. They will take restorable items into account and odors will be fought with using fogging equipment and air scrubbers.

The Final Step

Once all of the major fire damage issues have been taken care of, in addition to the water damage and smoke and soot Our in-house Rebuild Team will begin the necessary repairs to the structure of your property. Since we are a licensed contractor with the State of Massachusetts, we can handle any building services that may be needed from replacing drywall and painting over a refurbished surface!
