Common Fire and Smoke Damage
Chimney fires
Smoke may enter living spaces, and heat can damage nearby materials even if the fire remains inside the chimney.
Furnace puff-backs
Oil furnace malfunctions can spread oily soot through rooms and ductwork.
Wood stove smoke-back
Draft problems or blocked flues can leave smoke residue on walls, ceilings and furnishings.
Kitchen and electrical fires
Soot, smoke and odor may affect multiple rooms.
Why Securing Fire-Damaged Homes Matters
Broken windows, damaged doors and roof openings can expose your property to weather, animals and unauthorized entry. Promptly securing the building can help limit further damage.
