What to Do After a Fire

  1. Contact Your Homeowners Insurance Provider. It is the first step to take. Providers of such coverage will evaluate your best options when selecting fire restoration services.
  2. Make Enquiries on When It Is Safe to Go Back Into Your House. Returning to your home after a fire is not advisable unless permitted by the fire department or local building officials. The reason is that hidden damage makes the house unsafe and fires can erupt again.
  3. Create A List of Damaged Items. Your insurance firm will need an inventory list of all personal items that were damaged in the fire as you make a claim. Some of the things to include in your inventory list are the description of each item, the brand name, serial number, and purchase price.
  4. Get A Fire Report Copy. A description of the damage, date and time of the incident, ignition source details if discovered, and the affected area, is part of the information that a fire report bears. Your insurer will find this document useful too.
  5. Contact an Accountant. Find out from an accountant what benefits are available for those who are recovering from fire related losses.
  6. Find Temporary Dwelling. If your house is rendered uninhabitable after a fire, you need to find somewhere else to stay as you recover.
