What to do After a Fire?
If you’ve just been through a fire, it’s hard to think of what’s next. Here are some things to consider:
Your local fire department is there for you. Follow their instructions.
For your kids and pets, ensure they are out of smoky areas. There are carcinogenic gases in smoke and soot which can affect your health. Have them stay with a neighbor, for starters, then find them a comforting home with family or good friends. As well as affecting physical health, fire can be an unnerving experience. The safety of your loved ones comes first.
If you are allowed back inside your home, open windows to move smoke outdoors. Empty the refrigerator and freezer if there is no power. Leave the appliance doors open to avoid odors.
Call your insurance company. This is what they are there for. They need to be contacted immediately. All policies state that you should contact them as soon as you can.
Now it’s time to give us a call. You know you will be in need of professional help, so do it now. It’s important that you contact fire and water restoration specialists in Florida who can come out to your home or business and start the process of repair. There are things that need doing now; from laying tarps on roofs to boarding windows and checking for any hot spots. Your insurance company demands it. Our free estimates are only a phone call away.
Do an inventory of your home. List all of its contents and those things which will need to be replaced. It’s helpful to take pictures, too. Your insurance company and any fire investigation team will need them. Make additional copies to have on hand.
Let the police know if your home or business will be vacant so they can watch your premises. Contact schools, the post office, your mortgage company, and credit card companies to have them defer or lower payments at this critical time. There will be other things to do to replace your valuable documents if they have been lost or destroyed in the fire.
