We are leaders in fire damage restoration services in San Diego!

It only takes a second for a curious pet to start a fire! Each year pets and wild animals are responsible for starting over 750 home fires in the United States. Although unintentional, our furry friends can start fires by bumping into, turning on, or knocking over cooking equipment. Yikes! Fortunately, our local Centre City/Uptown team is a trusted leader in fire damage restoration services, and we have been restoring fire damage in North Park for many years. Here are some tips from the   to keep your pets safe around fire:

• Keep pets away from stoves and countertops
• Keep pets away from candles, lamps, and space heaters
• Always use a metal or heat-tempered glass screen on a fireplace and keep it in place
• Keep pets away from a chimney’s outside vents.
• Have a “pet-free zone” of at least three feet away from the fireplace. Glass doors and screens can stay dangerously hot for several hours after the fire goes out.
• Some pets are chewers. Watch pets to make sure they don’t chew through electrical cords. Have any problems checked by a professional.
