Fire Damage Assessment

A house fire is something that every homeowner fears. We worry about accidentally leaving the oven on or the iron plugged in. We worry that a meal cooking on the stovetop could cause the whole kitchen to burn down. We worry about a dropped cigarette on the carpet. And because of the dangers of fire in the home, these are valid worries. We as homeowners have to be careful to avoid house fires. Sadly, sometimes these things happen anyway. Whether it happens because of an accident or because of bad wiring, fire damage can be extensive and possibly permanent. Carpet, insulation, drywall, wood flooring – none of it is immune when a fire strikes, and if the fire was bad enough, the whole structure of the home can be compromised.
