We are leaders in fire restoration in Adams County.

At SERVPRO® of Commerce City, sometimes we arrive at the scene of a fire while the South Adams County firefighters are still working to extinguish the flames. Here are some key fire safety tips from the National Fire Protection Association:

• Stay in the kitchen when you are frying, grilling, or broiling food. If you must leave, even for a short time, turn off the stove
• Keep fixed and portable space heaters at least three feet from anything that can burn. Turn off heaters when you leave the room or go to sleep
• Ask smokers to smoke outside
• Keep matches and lighters out of reach of the reach of children
• Replace electrical cords that are cracked, damaged, have broken plugs, or have loose connections
• Keep candles at least one foot from anything that can burn. Blow out candles when you leave the room or go to sleep
• Make a home fire escape plan and practice it at least twice a year
• Install smoke alarms on every level of your home
• Test smoke alarms at least once a month and replace batteries once a year or when the alarm “chirps” to tell you the battery is low. Replace any smoke alarm that is more than ten years old
