Fire & Water - Cleanup & Restoration


Extension Cord Fire

SERVPRO was called in to board up the exterior of the home due to an extension cord fire. The fire burned through the exterior step, melted the siding and started to burn into the interior wall. SERVPRO of Columbia, Montour & Sullivan Counties removed the damaged drywall and insulation from the interior of the home and placed containment on the wall.  The interior of the home sustained smoke damage and cleaning was needed.
