A fire in the home can be a traumatic experience for everyone involved. With Christmas quickly approaching it is good to remember that the risk of fires in the home are generally higher during the winter months. There are various things this time of year to be cautious of to keep your home fire free. We have compiled a list of the most common causes of fires in the home around the holidays and winter months:

  1. Cooking- Distractions can pull you away from the kitchen, leaving food material susceptible to burning.
  2. Candles- Candles should be extinguished if you are leaving the room.
  3. Christmas trees- An improperly cared for tree can dry quickly and be prone to combustion.
  4. Holiday Lights- Frayed wires or electrical issues can cause fires in the home. 
  5. Space Heaters- Improper use or having the heater set near combustible materials can cause fires.

If you experience a fire make SERVPRO your first call. We understand the value of your possessions,  and our team will work  hard to bring life back into your home or business after a fire. As the local leaders in cleanup and restoration after a fire, let SERVPRO of Sioux Falls help you get your home back.
