SERVPRO® wants to make sure you and your family is covered in case a fire breaks out, by giving helpful tips to use before, during, and after a fire. Because you’re primary focus should be safety first and the first step of making sure you are safe is having a plan.

Before a Fire

• Create and practice a fire escape safety plan; make sure to practice at least twice a year.
• Make sure to check your fire alarms regularly.
• Make sure to create a safe meeting place
• Teach stop, drop, and roll

During a Fire

• Make sure to crawl under the smoke
• Before opening a door, make sure to feel the doorknob with the back of your hands.
• Once you made it out safely make sure to call 9-1-1; do a head count and make sure everyone is there. If not tell the fire department do not try and go back in yourself

After a Fire

• Ask and see if it’s safe to go back inside, make sure you take picture of things for records
• If the building is still standing make sure to call SERVPRO of Fair Oaks / Folsom at 916-987-0400.
