The United States Fire Administration (USFA) reminds you that fire moves breathtakingly fast (literally so), and while fire extinguishers do save lives and property, you should use them only under the following conditions:

  • Everyone else is already out of the house
  • Firefighters are on the way
  • The fire is small and contained
  • You don’t have to search for the fire extinguisher (keep extinguishers handy, not in the garage under a pile of stuff you mean to sort through someday)
  • You know how to use the fire extinguisher

If fire damages your home, call SERVPRO of Gold Coast/Lincoln Park/Lakeview at 773-935-6750

Why Not Clean It Yourself?

Because it’s a terrible idea, that’s why.

Smoke and soot are corrosive, not just to your house and its belongings, but to your lungs, soft tissues, and skin. If you have a tiny area to clean up, fine. If you have a larger area, you’ll need personal protective equipment (PPE) and fans to blow the fumes away from family members.

We have the equipment.

Further, nonprofessionals may view materials as unsalvageable that we at SERVPRO of Gold Coast/Lincoln Park/Lakeview can save, thereby saving you the expense of replacement. Conversely, you may spend time and effort trying to save something we know is not salvageable or may ruin something by using the wrong cleaning techniques.

A small amount of fire damage can (and usually will) become a large amount of fire damage if it is not attended to correctly, which means:

  1. Ignoring it will not make it go away.
  2. Most kinds of smoke or soot damage get worse quickly.
  3. Different materials require different cleaners and techniques.
  4. Different types of smoke or soot also require different cleaners and techniques.
  5. Numbers 4 and 5 are two of the reasons that insurance companies require homeowners to hire professionals to remediate smoke and fire damage.
  6. Our team members clean and disinfect the entire house, including air vents (HVAC).
  7. We help restore the structure and its belongings to preloss conditions.
  8. We have specialized equipment to permanently remove odors.

Trivia Time!

The Office of This-Info-Won’t-Be-on-the-Test wants to be important, so it focused on food.

According to some foodies they located, the best sandwich in Illinois is the combo sandwich, with roast beef, Italian sausage, hot peppers, sweet peppers, and plenty of gravy.
