Smoke Detector Safety

4/20/2020 (Permalink)

It might not seem like a big thing until it's too late. In this case the fire had started in the garage but was not heard until the fire had already spread. When working in the home we noticed smoke detectors had been displaced from their original locations. We gladly provided smoke detectors for the home but had they been in place they may have prevented more damage. Fire Damage was not the only predator at this fire though with Water Mitigation being a huge part of the work. Julie who works with us was in charge of all the inventory for this home. Almost all of the items in the garage had to be salvaged. We love turning back the clock and making it "Like it never even happened," but there are some things that can't be replaced like family photos. We would like to see all homes at all times outfitted with smoke detectors and some day hopefully we will.
