NAVIGATE FIRE DAMAGE CLAIMS LIKE A PRO
Fire poses a serious threat, and smoke damage can be just as detrimental. Surprisingly, the flames themselves might not be the greatest risk to health and property.
Smoke is the leading cause of fire-related deaths, surpassing burns by a 3-to-1 ratio. Besides harming your respiratory system, smoke can compromise your property’s structural integrity. Smoke damage from any fire contains carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and soot.
These harmful chemicals can infiltrate the air, cling to walls, furniture, clothing, and duct-work, causing extensive damage. Understanding the impact of fire and smoke is crucial when navigating fire damage claims.

UNDERSTANDING FIRE DAMAGE
CLASS A AND CLASS B FIRES
Class A fires involve flammable solids such as paper, cloth, wood, and plastics. These materials are common in households and businesses, making Class A fires one of the most typical types of fire damage. Class B fires, on the other hand, involve flammable liquids or solids that can turn into liquids. Examples include gasoline, oil, and certain waxes. Both Class A and B fires can cause extensive damage to property and require different methods for extinguishing.
