Holiday and Winter Fire Facts

SERVPRO of Sarpy County cleans fire damage and smoke damage caused by Christmas Tree fires every year.  The US Fire Administration has an entire page on their website dedicated to preventing Holiday fires.  While Christmas fires don't occur that often, they do cause a lot of damage, with 1 out of every 32 fires resulting in death.  Having a heat source or candle too close to the tree is the number one cause of Christmas tree fires.  Also be sure to keep open flames away from Christmas decorations and ensure the tree is watered regularly so it does not become too dry and highly flammable.

If your property is affected by fire damage or smoke damage, call the trusted professionals at SERVPRO of Sarpy County at 402-291-3355. Our experienced crews are always here to help.
