Allowing Rainbow Restoration of North Central Ohio to conduct your restoration serviceS can reduce the significance of personal strain on you and your family.

WHAT TO DO BEFORE WE ARRIVE
Although fires can be dangerous and frightening, it's important not to panic. If you've experienced one, follow our fire and smoke damage cleanup tips:
- Follow all safety instructions provided by your local fire department personnel.
- Move pets, children, and the elderly to a smoke-free environment. Smoke contains carcinogenic gasses that can affect their health. Start with a neighbor you trust for immediate shelter, then move them to a temporary home with friends or family until the restoration is complete.
- Open all the windows. This will get air moving to push the smoke out. Don't forget to also turn off your HVAC systems.
- Make that call — you will need professional help. Before you get too busy, hire a fire remediation specialist who can start getting your home back to its original condition.
- Contact your homeowner's insurance carrier. All policies require that policyholders report their loss “as soon as reasonably possible.” Home insurance policies also often require that policyholders take reasonable steps to “mitigate damages” (from tarping a damaged roof to boarding windows and making sure smoldering is stopped).
- Empty your refrigerator and freezer if there is no power. Once empty, prop the door open to prevent odors from building up inside.
- Inventory the contents of your home. Make a list of all items that need to be replaced.
- Take pictures of the damage, too. Because you will need copies for the insurance company, for your own personal records and . possibly for the fire investigation authorities, we recommend making a digital inventory that can be accessed from anywhere.
