SERVPRO® Uses Proactive Fire Restoration Approaches

Los Angeles is known for its unlimited attractions and fun activities for residents and visitors. You can explore space and science exhibits at the Griffith Observatory or explore world-renowned museums such as the Getty Center, which features stunning architecture and beautiful gardens. Since Los Angeles is synonymous with the film industry, a walk through the Hollywood Walk of Fame is great if you would like to explore stars honoring different celebrities. Annual events like The LA County Fair, LA Film Festival, and Rose Parade provide a unique chance to interact. 

There is nothing convenient about property fires. However, with proper planning, fire damage restoration at your Los Angeles property can run conveniently. SERVPRO helps plan and execute fire restoration exercises conveniently by deploying a range of advanced resources to execute different tasks.

Proactive restoration involves

• Proper residue control
• Safeguarding structural areas
• Sustained moisture control

Residues are plentiful in a fire-damaged property because of the soot and ash produced by materials as heat breaks them down. Residues soil structural areas and contents, so removing them is essential. However, if the removal efforts spread the residues from the original areas, you may end up worsening the soiling or interfering with electronics and utilities in the house. SERVPRO takes steps like vacuuming surfaces to remove fine residues, setting up air-tight containment, and establishing negative air pressure.

Fire compromises structures in different ways like creating openings by shattering windows and triggering roof cave-ins. Flames may compromise frames and studs through deep charring. Safeguards such as board-ups and roof tarps help protect the structure from further deterioration. Roof tarps ensure there is no water damage in case it rains after the fire incident, while boarding up secures the interior from a wide array of risks, including vandals.

Most times, fire incidents also involve water damage since firefighting mostly requires dousing flames with water. Such damage may also occur during cleanup. Therefore, sustained moisture control helps improve outcomes. Our SERVPRO teams have different dehumidifier types, including LGR and desiccants for humidity control.
