SERVPRO® Provides Fire Damage Removal and Restoration in Northampton

A house fire in Northampton is devastating for homeowners and renters. In many situations, the home must be vacated until it can be cleaned and restored, which can take weeks or months. There are charred structures and contents in the immediate area of the fire. There are smoke residues and odors that have spread throughout the home. The fire department may also add to the damage caused by water and chemicals to control the fire.

Many residents turn to SERVPRO for help with the cleanup and fire damage restoration in their Northampton home. Our team can be onsite within four hours of your call, and we are available twenty-four-seven to assess the damage, formulate a plan, and restore your home to its original condition.

If you are dealing with a fire, there are emergency tips to consider:

• Assess if it is safe to remain in the building.
• Watch for electrical and slippery conditions to avoid accidents.
• Avoid lifting heavy, wet materials.
• Limit your movement within the home to reduce embedding soot particles in fabrics.
• Keep your hands clean.
• Clear our freezers and refrigerators if the power is off.
