Soot Lines and Smoke Chains in a Bedroom.

SERVPRO of Bellingham helps many clients with water damages and they are the most common reason for calls to the office. Fires are another reason we get called, but are less much frequent.

We were called on a Monday morning to assist a family that had thankfully been awoken in the middle of the night to smoke alarms and a line of smoke that extended down below the windows. The small fire occurred in the kitchen. The homeowners extinguished the flames and home was quickly evacuated. The fire trucks arrived to help the family and they spent the night in a local hotel.

Our crew was send out first thing on Monday and we created a plan to clean their belongings in our contents shop. The items were categorized, boxed up and delivered to our shop. The structure was then deodorized, cleaned and prepped for paint.
