Fire Damage Loss Recovery

office building fireAt Sabel Adjusters, we are experienced with helping homeowners and business owners who have incurred losses due to fire damage, assisting with the claim process and doing our best to ensure the maximum settlement.

Every year, home fires cause nearly $7 billion in damage. Kitchen fires, electrical fires, and fires caused by smoking make up the majority of fires in the home. More often than not, in cases of home fires, negligence is a key factor. This is particularly important when the insurance company sends a representative to conduct an origin-and-cause investigation in response to the claim.

Forgetting to turn off the stove, having overloaded outlets, or throwing away a cigarette without completely putting it out are all ways in which accidental fires may be started. For every five home fires, two begin in the kitchen; these are often started by unattended cooking or overheated grease. Candles also are a leading contributor to home fires, with nearly 30 home fires caused by candles reported every day.

Fires in office buildings and warehouses destroy millions of dollars of inventory and equipment. Whether from natural causes such as lightening or from electrical malfunction or human error, fires can devastate property which in turn can devastate a business.

Five Minutes Could Be All It Takes…

Fires move quickly, and sometimes improper methods of putting them out can exacerbate the problem; for example, throwing water on a grease fire will only make things worse. It may only take as few as five minutes for a fire to consume a house. It’s important not to leave heat sources like stoves, candles, and space heaters unattended, and to be sure to extinguish these sources before going to sleep. Lack of working smoke detectors is another significant factor in cases of home fires.
