Basement storage suffers water damage after fire fighting efforts

Typically, we think of fire damage as images of burned out, hollow structures.

But oftentimes, the damage is more subtle, yet just as destructive.

This retail warehouse suffered fire damage on the main floor of the facility. Once the fire alarm system was activated, the sprinkler system also activated and helped to control the fire.

Once the fire department completed their inspection and determined the structure was safe, the owners call our team at SERVPRO of Lawton to begin the restoration process.

Our team noted the fire damage on the main floor, along with the water damage caused by the fire suppression system.

We also noted the basement had severe water damage due to fire fighting activities, and had standing water throughout the area.

Our teams began extracting water from the basement area as we also prepared to pack out, move out and demo the affected areas.

When fire and water damage happens, call the trusted experts at SERVPRO of Lawton at 580-699-2662.
