What to Do in the Immediate Aftermath of a Fire
Carefully Analyze The Damage After Making Sure Everyone is Safe
If there is a fire in your home or business, it is easy to panic. However, your priority should always be your safety and the safety of those around you. Once you know that everyone is out and away from danger, and the fire is taken care of, here are a few steps you should take.
- Assess the damage – is it safe to enter the building? (Don’t enter without the green light from a professional who has assessed the property)
- Try not to lift any wet materials or touch any electrical outlets and wires
- Do not move anything that could compromise the structure or your safety
- Keep your hands clean
- Cover furniture and walkways to prevent more damage
Contact Local Professionals For Help
Once you know a bit more about what is going on, be sure to contact professionals – like All Dry USA – to help you assess the costs and the spread of the damage.
- DON’T clean appliances or anything that was close to the fire or smoke damage – let the professionals handle that
- DON’T wash carpets, walls, or floors until after the assessment is performed
