Warning Signs of an Electrical Fire
Your home is an expensive asset, so it pays to know the warning signs of an electrical fire. Did you know that by the time an electrical fire has started, it only takes three minutes for your home to become engulfed? American Restoration values the importance of informing our community of the warning signs of an electrical fire. Here are some of the most common signs for you to know in order to quickly detect when something isn’t right.
A Burning Smell You Can’t Find
-This is often the #1 way to figure out if you have an electrical problem. The first thing you should do is turn off the breaker to the room with the outlet that you think is starting to burn. If the smells begin to dissipate American Restoration recommends that you call one of their skilled technicians to evaluate the situation.
2.Breakers That Keep Tripping
-It is totally normal to trip your breaker every now and then but not all the time. Breakers that trip frequently can mean a few different things:
-Your circuit can easily become overloaded. When this happens your breaker will trip in an effort to cool the wiring down.
-Faulty wiring can also trigger your circuit breaker to keep tripping. Faulty wiring is far more dangerous than an overloaded circuit.
-Ground fault, which occurs mostly in areas of higher moisture like a bathroom or shower. The hot wire can touch a copper wire which is attached to a metal box and that gives it enough energy to ignite.
Charred or Discolored Outlets
-This should automatically signal you to turn off power to that room. Immediately call an electrician with American Restoration to evaluate that room and to get it fixed before it can become a bigger and more costly problem.
Our experienced electricians on staff here at American Restoration take pride in making sure your family is safe and providing peace of mind. Call us today to schedule an appointment to evaluate the condition of your home’s wiring and to fix any potential problems that could cause more harm later down the road. If you believe you smell smoke or see anything concerning fire, call 911 immediately.
Asbestos is commonly found in homes that were built before 1980. Asbestos is a heat-resistant fibrous silicate mineral that can found in floor tiles, ceiling tiles, roof shingles, siding, flashing's, and insulation. When any of these materials become damaged, they become dangerous: they release fibrous material in the air and can often cause mesothelioma; a type of cancer. American Restoration is here to help you identify and remove those dangerous materials from your home so you can sleep better knowing you are protected as well as your family.
When you call for one of our skilled technicians to come to inspect your home for asbestos, you can expect us to take samples. These samples are then sent off to a certified local lab that utilizes the EPA standard of detecting asbestos by using PLM- Polarized Light Microscopy and TEM- Transmission Electron Microscopy. If results come back that your home includes building material that contains asbestos, our certified technicians will work hand in hand with you to remove the materials.
Asbestos is not something you plan on ever having to handle when you buy a home. At American Restoration, we strive to make the process as easy as possible to identify and remove any asbestos materials from your home. Each stage of work is talked through and will be thoroughly monitored, for the safety of our employees and the safety of your family. We will work to get you and your family back in the home as quickly as possible and back to your daily life without the hassle of home repairs. You can trust us to make your home a safe place live!

Happy New Year from everyone here at American Restoration Water & Fire, LLC. !
Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away and with the COVID-19 pandemic, that means that more families will be staying home and making the well-known turkey meal for their household. Like all things, there is no place like home and home-cooked is the best type of food. Unfortunately, home is also where more fire and smoke calls are made to 911 during the holiday season. American Restoration Water and Fire, LLC would like to take a moment and remind you of these safety tips that will allow your Thanksgiving dinner to go off, without setting any alarms off!
There are so many delicious sides to be had with your turkey on Thanksgiving, that it can be hard to balance them out, getting them all done at the right time. You should never leave anything unattended that is on the stove when the heat is being applied to it.
First, make sure your home’s smoke alarms are working— you can do this by pushing the button once on the outside of your alarm to test. Replace batteries if needed.
Grease can easily jump out of the pan and if it’s not being watched, you soon could have a grease fire.
While your turkey is in the oven, stay in the home, and check it frequently.
Make sure your stovetop is clear of any cloths, oven mitts, food packaging, and wooden utensils that could easily catch fire.
Remember to keep children and pets out of the kitchen when you are cooking, and that the kitchen floor remains clear of any toys or anything that should not be there.
Never deep-fry a frozen turkey!! If you place a frozen turkey in high-temperature grease, it will explode, causing damage to you and your home.
According to the National Fire Protection Association, Thanksgiving is the #1 day a year to account for more than 50% of home fires and was the second leading cause of home fire deaths between 2014-2018. American Restoration wants you to enjoy the holidays, and if something should happen, we are here to help! American Restoration Water and Fire, LLC will walk through every step of the restoration process with you, and before you know it, your home will be back to the way it was before disaster struck. Safe cooking and Happy Thanksgiving!
