What Does SERVPRO Do After a Fire in Park Forest?

Knowing what to expect after a devastating fire loss can help to offer peace of mind in a time of upheaval for your Park Forest home and your family. As overwhelming as the circumstance can be, mainly when structural damages and widespread hazards exist, knowing how our qualified professionals can help you is a great comfort to some homeowners.

We have extensive experience in Park Forest fire damage recovery and continual training through the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) and in-house coursework in various facets of fire restoration and cleaning, making us knowledgeable and confident in the work we do. We have a system that we follow in restoring fire losses, and that begins with our first contact with the customer or their insurance company.

Our SERVPRO team has established relationships with local insurance companies, helping us to better coordinate efforts and share vital information during this crisis recovery. When it comes to fire loss restoration, every minute counts and the longer we wait to begin mitigation, the more areas of the house become affected by spreading threats like odors, soot, smoke residues, and other particulates.

When our team first arrives, we start by conducting a thorough inspection of the property under the oversight of our project management and crew chief. If it is safe to do so, we can escort the homeowner through the site to get a better understanding of their knowledge of the situation and their wishes for their home moving forward. It is always our priority to meet or exceed the expectations of our customers.

We have several pieces of equipment that get brought into the staging areas that our SERVPRO team sets up throughout the damaged house. We address foul odors with tools and products, we can use cleaning agents for safely removing soot residues, and we have stationary filtration devices to begin making the air safer for our technicians to breathe as work continues.

There are many phases of fire recovery, and in many situations, the restoration of your home can take weeks or longer. It is always our priority to perform our jobs as promptly and as thoroughly as we can so that once our SERVPRO of Chicago Heights / Crete / Beecher team turns the property back to the customer, it is “Like it never even happened.” Give us a call anytime at (708) 672-0077.
