What to Do if There is a Fire in Your Home

You might be trying to figure out what to do in the moments after a fire. First and most importantly, follow all directions from professionals and firefighters that arrive to help you. They’ll also let you know if it is safe to enter a property to assess damage and retrieve any items. Here are other steps we suggest taking after a fire:

Assess family members and all pets to see if they need medical care. Shortness of breath, mental distress, and fatigue are common signs that medical attention is warranted.
Contact your insurer to begin the documentation process and find out what your insurance covers, such as hotel accommodations or vehicle coverage. Track all fire-related spending for reimbursement from insurance.
If your insurance covers hotel accommodations, find a place to stay. You can also ask friends and family if you can temporarily stay with them. In some cases, disaster relief organizations may provide housing.
Locate important documents like passports, birth certificates, insurance policies, credit cards, and more. Assess any damage to these documents and start the process of replacing those that were damaged. It’s also helpful to request a copy of the fire report from the fire department.
If the fire department has deemed your home safe to enter, you can begin retrieving your belongings. Take photos of damaged items lost for insurance purposes.

Are house fires common?

Between 2012 and 2021, FEMA estimates that there was an average of 353,500 annual house fires, resulting in 2,840 average deaths and an average of 11,400 injuries each year.

What are the most common causes of house fires?

While many things can cause a house fire, kitchen fires remain the top cause of house fires. Unattended cooking, grease fires, electrical appliances, and barbecue grills cause nearly half of all house fires. Other common causes include electrical fires, space heaters, smoking, and candles.

Who decides whether my home can be saved?

Sometimes a house will need to be rebuilt after a house fire. Ultimately, an adjuster working for your insurance company will determine if it will be restored or rebuilt entirely.

Will my insurance pay for fire clean up?

Fire clean-up coverage will depend on your specific policy and insurance company. When you hire The Disaster Company, we’ll work tirelessly with your insurance to determine what is covered and make the most of your policy.

Do I need professional cleaners even after a small house fire?

Professional assessment after any house fire is recommended, even if you think it is a small fire. It is suggested to receive an assessment because there could be smoke damage or residue that could adversely affect your health. The sooner fire damage is addressed, the safer your home will be for your family.

Is it safe to handle belongings that did not burn in the fire?

Unfortunately, soot and residue can cause damage to many items in the home, such as computers, TVs, and other electronics. Because of this, they may not be safe to handle. Feel free to ask The Disaster Company about any specific items in your home.

Can we live in a house with fire damage?

Any fire damage in a home can make it unsafe for occupancy. After a house fire, it’s important to let the clean up crews quickly and efficiently remedy the problem. Instead of tackling the problem yourself (which we do not recommend), let us take care of the restoration while you get your life back on track. Once we’re done, you can move back into the home.

What are the immediate concerns following a fire?

After you’ve assessed that all family members and pets are okay, you’ll want to call The Disaster Company to determine the damage, remove contaminated items from the home, and coordinate clean up with your insurance company. We’ll also work to prevent further deterioration of your home by boarding up windows, doors, and any other entry points. Then we’ll begin the restoration process.
