Electrical Fire in Newton / Wellesley Area Home

An electrical fire is the cause of the extensive smoke and soot damage in this Newton / Wellesley area home.

Most electrical fires are caused by faulty electrical outlets and old, outdated appliances. Other fires are started by faults in appliance cords, receptacles and switches. Never use an appliance with a worn or frayed cord which can send heat onto combustible surfaces like floors, curtains, and rugs that can start a fire.

Luckily no one was harmed although there was substantial soot damage that required a lot of cleaning and purifying.  SERVPRO of Newton / Wellsely  has the water and fire damage training and expertise to help you through this tough time.  Once the fire department leaves, your home may suffer from water damage caused by firefighting efforts.
