ServiceMaster Complete Restoration by Stiffey in Pittsburgh, PA has what you need for after the fire, but our team always wants you to take preventive steps to avoid a fire. In order to prevent \u00a0fire damage, check out the following three things you should know about fires in your home and how they can come about when you least expect it:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Two of every five home fires start in the kitchen. These fires are commonly caused by cooking mistakes or mishaps. In fact, range fires were some of the most common kitchen fires, from either being left on or improperly used, as well as the ignition of food or other cooking materials.<\/li>\n
  2. On average, there are 29 fires from candles reported in the US every single day. Many of these fires begin when things are left too close to the candle and catch fire. These fires generally begin in bedrooms.<\/li>\n
  3. Only one-third of Americans have developed and practiced a home fire escape plan. While some take the time to develop a fire escape plan, many have never taken time to practice it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It\u2019s important to do your research on fires, including knowing who to call when things go sour.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 For more facts and information about fire damage in the home, check out the National Fire Protection Association\u2019s website.
