SERVPRO Brea/Yorba Linda offers Fire Damage Repair

Whether it's that old electrical wiring coiled up behind your clothes dryer or the wires attached to your television, electricity provides energy for most appliances in the modern home.  We all rely on the power of electricity but we rarely think of the horrifying dangers that accompany electrical wiring in a house with basic items like lights and contemporary heating systems.  According to the Tropical Fire Report Series, published by the United States Fire Administration, electrical fires occur frequently throughout the US, causing injury, claiming lives, and resulting in large property losses due to fire damage.

At SERVPRO Brea/Yorba Linda we know that while none of us would anticipate our household items erupting into flames due to an electrical fire, it can easily happen at any moment. We are prepared to handle all of your fire damage repair needs. An unexpected fire can be a devastating event, so let the experienced technicians at SERVPRO Brea/Yorba Linda assess your property, fix structural damage, eradicate foul odors and clean soot from behind crevices as seamlessly as possible.

Electrical fires can be incredibly dangerous because they start in the walls and smoke can smolder for a while before it erupts into flames. Here are some facts gleaned from USFA about electrical fires so your family can adequately prepare against them. In order to prevent fire damage in Yorba Linda, be aware of the following:

• Property Use: Eighty-seven percent of residential electrical fires happen in one and two family homes. This includes single-family homes and mobile home units too.  

• Time Elements: Electrical fires occurred most frequently in the late afternoon or early evening. This is often the time that most family members are getting home.

• Month Matters: Most electrical fires take place during the months of December and January. Electrical failure or malfunction can easily take place on faulty holiday décor with worn or damaged cords.
