Q: What do I do if my dryer catches on fire?

• <div><p>Call 911 immediately. If you have a fire extinguisher or fire blanket near the laundry room, you can attempt to extinguish the fire, but don&rsquo;t open or touch the dryer. If you can&rsquo;t put the fire out, evacuate yourself, your family, and your pets from the house, closing the laundry room door behind you. Turn off the electricity to your home via the outside fuse box, then wait for the fire department. After a dryer fire, have your home&rsquo;s electrical system inspected to make sure there isn&rsquo;t any damage.</p></div>

Q: Can I restore fire or smoke damage myself?

• <div><p>DIY restoration for small areas is possible with proper safety gear and equipment, though comprehensive damage benefits from professional restoration.</p></div>

Q: What happens to stucco in a fire?

• <div><p>All of the components of stucco are non-combustible, so the siding material won&rsquo;t ignite or spread fire to the interior of your home. However, it also expands and contracts with changes in temperature, so it will crack from long exposure to heat. Eventually, fire will spread through those cracks. Still, stucco is one of the best siding materials for fire protection and can keep you and your family safe for an hour, on average.</p></div>

Q: What are common challenges faced during fire or smoke damage restoration?
