Can't Live With It, Can't Live Without It...
Fire is one thing we cannot live without, but it can cause great damage if not properly handled. Below, you'll find we've pulled together a list of several possible causes of fire loss.
These reasons range from protein fire whereby you forget food in your microwave which ends up burning, to something more sudden such as a furnace malfunction. Whichever the cause, recovering from a fire loss can be simplified if you get the right service providers.
Damages Related to a Fire Loss
The most devastating thing about a fire is that it creates more disaster than just burning. After the firefighters leave the fire scene, you are left with more to deal with including soot damage, smoke damage, water damage from firefighting efforts, and the need to improve indoor air quality.

The Effects of Soot
Soot damage will not only have befallen on the walls, but also on furniture, carpets and even upholstery after a fire. Our team is trained to clean all properties and dry them out to avoid mold formation. Every corner of the premises should be cleaned up thoroughly leaving it as it was during pre-fire condition.
Cleaning properties such as carpets and sofa sets might require added attention. Small pieces of glass may very well have landed on these items and embedded themselves within. Also, they might have accumulated a lot of soot and smoke smell. In this case, SERVPRO of Marion/Middleborough will be ready with the right chemicals to help restore your property.
