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: Does drywall need to be replaced after smoke damage?

• <div><p>You may need to replace drywall because of smoke damage. If the drywall is covered in soot, you may be able to clean it, but it will require a lot of time and effort. You could spend hours cleaning the drywall only to find there is more damage and it needs to be replaced anyway. It&rsquo;s usually easier and safer to remove the smoke-damaged drywall and replace it.</p></div>

Q: Can you use flour to put out an electrical fire?

• <div><p>Baking soda is an effective fire reduction method. However, flour and baking powder are very dangerous around flames. Flour is flammable and it can also conduct electricity. The combination can cause serious injury from electrical shock and worsen the situation by adding fuel to the fire. Baking powder is also not an option as it's also highly flammable. </p></div>

Q: What is the first step in fire damage restoration?

• <div><p>The first step in fire damage restoration is having a pro come in right away to help control moisture (if authorities used water to extinguish a fire at your home). Skipping moisture removal puts your home at risk for invasive mold and rot that can cause added property damage and health issues. Once you have the bulk of the water out, you&rsquo;ll need to run blower fans for 24 to 72 hours to remove moisture.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: How long does fire damage recovery take?

• <div><p>Most projects take 1-8 weeks, depending on structural repairs, cleaning, and air quality restoration.</p></div>

I appreciated the quality of work and the transparency with the costs. The owner is very professional and respectful and did a great job with the roof and with cleanup around my house. He used tarps to catch nails and then used a magnet to catch stray nails.
