Winter brings colder weather and holidays, both of which increase the risk for residential fires. Our SERVPRO of Beckley technicians have ample experience in the cleanup/disinfection and damage remediation after all these kinds of fires. We are also licensed general contractors, so we provide or supervise the full range of rebuilding and restoration services that a home may require after fire, smoke, or water damage.

Call us at 304-253-6633. One of our awesomely attentive team members will ask questions about the extent and nature of the fire damage, so we know whether to bring roof tarpaulins, portable power, water-extraction equipment, and other specialized tools. We will also contact your insurance company so that you can focus on your family rather than paperwork.

Risk Factors & Safety Tips from the USFA

Residential fires increase in the United States during the winter because:

• More holidays mean more cooking and more distractions – most residential fires start in the kitchen
• Cooler weather means more space heaters, which are a fire risk
• Lighted decorations bring more wiring
• Candles and fireplaces are fire hazards
• Trees and other decorations are often flammable

The SERVPRO of Beckley teams arrive Faster to any size disaster, but of course, we’d rather you not experience a disaster at all. Therefore, we’ve copied these important fire-prevention tips:

• Don’t let candles burn unattended
• Keep candles in stable holders and away from flammable materials
• Water any trees or other greenery
• Turn off lights when you leave the home
• Use space heaters for brief periods, keep them away from flammable objects and plug them only into wall outlets
• Throw away frayed, pinched, or torn electric cords
• Pay attention to what you’re cooking – especially anything on top of the stove

• Registered with the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC)
