For Fire Damage Restoration Services Inside Your Glen Cove Residence Call SERVPRO

We can provide multiple emergency services for you if a structural burn ever takes place on your Glen Cove property. The services we offer can help both protect property loss and human health effects.

What are the first things a restoration company does to protect my family?

When our SERVPRO technicians first enter your home during fire damage restoration in Glen Cove, our first focus is on the safety and well being of you and your family as well as all of the workers that enter your house. Our first objective is to take measures to prevent the existing problems from causing you issues in the future. Next, we repair safety hazards to ensure a safe workplace for everyone who enters your building. Then, we can conduct other procedures to prepare your property for the mitigation and restoration procedures to begin, like boarding up your structure and creating containment chambers to reduce any disruption the incident has created for all of your building's occupants.

    •    What other procedures do you implement to ensure safety during the restoration process?
    •    Conduct inspections of your building- We can thoroughly inspect your entire structure to figure out if any safety hazards like fallen debris exist.
    •    Board up the property- If your windows get broken from the heat, or your doors get destroyed from firefighters entering your home, we can secure your home from intruders and weather-related issues by placing boards and plastic on any of the breaches to your house's structural integrity.
    •    Dry out your house- Since water is often used to extinguish fires, one of the first steps to reducing property loss is to set up air movers and dehumidifiers to remove moisture from your structural components.
    •    Restore electricity- If the power had to be shut off as a result of the blaze, then we can bring it in via generators to provide light and heat.
