SERVPRO is ready to assist with your Fire Damage Restoration
When disasters strike your San Antonio home, there is often little time for you to formulate a plan and remove the most treasured items for safekeeping. Moreover, disasters put these irreplaceable items that you treasure at risk, leading to one of the most critical aspects of professional restoration services: mitigation. This process helps to reduce the spread and effect of damages in your home when it faces an emergency.
Fire damages are among the worst of these disastrous effects in your San Antonio home that you can neither plan for nor prevent. With so many ways that house fires can originate, the primary focus must be the safety of the occupants above any of the contents. With professionals like our SERVPRO technicians, however, these items do not have to be written off. Our emergency response team can utilize mitigation techniques to help lessen the lingering effects of the fire itself and work to preserve at-risk items within your house.
Once we assess the full scope of the fire damage to your home, our team first determines how to preserve structural integrity and at-risk items from continued damage. The pack-out service we provide can remove damaged items and those threatened by the conditions of the house to a safe area until restoration completes. Once this happens, the items can get returned to their original positions.
Some of the mitigation techniques employed by our SERVPRO team are to prevent worsening conditions from happening, such as mold growth. With many widespread fires requiring water to extinguish, this pooling water can create its own problems. Our technicians can extract this excess and dry up the saturation into materials to help reduce the possibility of microbial growth.
While you might not find yourself prepared to face a fire in your home, you are never alone in working to bring your house back to its original conditions. From working to preserve the things that matter most to you when disaster strikes to working efficiently to recover from the damages, our SERVPRO of Braun Station restoration specialists are here to help.
