Safe Candle Alternatives For Your Home
2/3/2022 (Permalink)
There are a variety of candle alternatives you can choose to keep your home safe from fire and smoke damage.
Everyone wants their home to smell nice, and flickering candlelight always makes a home feel more cozy. Unfortunately, candles are responsible for thousands of house fires a year, resulting in millions of dollars of property damage. Consider the following alternatives to candles for your home.
*Electric candles: these candle substitutes are becoming more popular due to their similarity in look to an actual candle and because they can be left unsupervised or overnight without worry of causing smoke or fire damage. Electric candles are typically battery powered and come in a variety of colors and sizes.
*Wax warmers: these flameless candle substitutes use a battery or electric heated dish to melt wax, creating a pleasant scent in your home.
*Fairy or string lights: these electric or battery powered lights are great for providing a festive setting and are easy to string up without equipment.
*Reed diffusers: if it's scent your are looking for, these are simple and require no power source. The glass bottles hold scented oils and upright reed or sticks. As the oil seeps up the reed the smell is released into the air.
Keep your home safe from fire, smoke and water damage by utilizing these safe candle alternatives. Unfortunately, disaster can strike even when we take every precaution. If your home has been damaged by fire, smoke or water damage, call the restoration professionals at SERVPRO of Hamilton County, of Indianapolis North and of Anderson at 317-773-0422.

Kitchen Safety Tips To Stay Safe This Winter
Did you know that the number one cause of home fires in the United States is from cooking? We often think of the risk of fire when using an outdoor BBQ during the summer, but the cold winter months present their own risks when cooking indoors. Some of the best winter meals (think chili and pot roast) cook all day long and that means appliances are on longer and often without supervision. Minimize the risk of fire and smoke damage to your home this winter by following some simple safety tips for cooking.
Inspect your appliances for loose wires and defective plugs and replace when necessary. Be sure to keep your countertop appliances a safe distance from flammable materials such as pot holders, paper towels and dish cloths. Routinely clean your stove top and oven to prevent drippings and debris from catching fire. Keep a fire extinguisher handy in the kitchen just in case and be sure everyone in the house knows how to operate it. Most importantly, never leave food cooking unsupervised. It just takes a moment for a fire to start.
Even when taking precautions, kitchen fires happen. If your home has suffered a fire or water damage, trust the professionals at SERVPRO of Hamilton County, of Indianapolis North and of Anderson to be on site quickly to begin the process of making your home "Like it never even happened." Call us today at 317-773-0422.
Preparing Your Central Indiana Home For A Winter Storm
2/2/2022 (Permalink)
The weather in Central Indiana can be unpredictable year round. One day it is sunny and seventy degrees and the next day we are preparing for the snow storm of the century. While we can't predict what the weather will do, we can prepare our homes for severe winter weather. Follow these tips to keep your home and family safe this season.
If you have a fireplace, have it checked regularly by a professional to keep it in good working order and be sure there is no debris that would prevent smoke from escaping. Make sure the fireplace is free from potentially flammable items such as drapes, furniture, newspaper, etc. Keep extra firewood handy.
Considering purchasing a generator for your home in case of power outages. A battery powered sump pump backup can also help to prevent flooding if your home loses power.
Examine the exterior of your home and remove any tree limbs or other items that could fall on your home during a storm and potentially damage the roof.
Caulk and weather strip doors and windows to preserve heat.
Prepare an emergency food supply so that you have at least 3 days of food and water on hand for your family. Look for foods that have a long shelf life and require little to no cooking or refrigeration in case of loss of power. Don't forget pet food!
Most importantly, prepare to check in regularly on neighbors, especially those who may need assistance during severe weather. If your home suffers damage due to flooding, fire, or other disasters, call the restoration professionals at SERVPRO of Hamilton County, of Indianapolis North and of Anderson at 317-773-0422.
Water Damage After A Snow Storm
2/2/2022 (Permalink)
Snow storms are exciting! Snowmen, sledding, hot chocolate and snow days from work and school are the fun parts of winter storms in Central Indiana. Unfortunately, severe weather can leave costly and frustrating damage to your home.
The most common causes of property damage to your home caused by winter weather are roof damage caused by heavy snow and ice and flooding caused by burst pipes and "ice dams". Ice dams are ridges that build up on the edge of your roof that prevent melting water from running off. The water will then find cracks and openings on the roof to enter the attic space and interior of the home. Even with proper maintenance, your home is vulnerable to these situations when snow falls heavily and temperatures drop.
If your home has been damaged by severe winter weather, trust the restoration professionals at SERVPRO of Hamilton County, of Indianapolis North and of Anderson. We will be on site quickly to assess the damage and make a plan to make your home "Like it never even happened." Reach us anytime day or night at 317-773-0422.
