Can You Stay in Your Ridgefield Home After Fire Damage?

Be Careful About Toxins After Fire Damage
One of the most common questions our customers ask is whether it is safe to stay in their home after a fire. The answer to this varies depending on the severity of the fire. However, you might want to consider temporary alternative accommodation if possible.
There are several potential risks after fire damage in your Ridgefield home:
- Combustion during a fire creates soot, which can contain toxins.
- There might be slip and fall hazards due to structural damage and the water used during fire fighting.
- Broken doors or windows, or missing roof tiles, leave your home vulnerable to the elements.
