Preventing Fire Damage
We love being there for our communities, but in a perfect world, you won’t need our services. It all starts with avoiding a fire in the first place. Here are a few tips that your local Loveland-Symmes Fire Department will be glad we passed on!
- Kitchen fire prevention: Cooking food should never be left unattended. Areas like range hoods should also be cleaned to reduce grease build up regularly. Grease fires can speak quickly and only get worse when water is added.
- Electrical fire prevention: Stop relying on all of those power strips. Are they convenient? Yes. Are they stable electrical fixtures you should use forever? No! If you’ve got buzzing outlets, warm light switches, or lights that flicker when you turn on appliances, calling out for an electrical inspection can head off possible fires.
- Furnace and heater issues: Furnace puffbacks are pretty common in Ohio’s heating systems. When a batch of unburned fuel suddenly hits your oil furnace, it sends out a blast of oily, flammable soot throughout your home’s ducts. Scheduling regular maintenance can help avoid this type of situation. Also, never leave a space heater unattended; they’re one of the most common causes of a fire in Ohio homes.
- Smoke and CO2 detectors: This shouldn’t be a surprise. Always keep fresh batteries in your detectors and make sure they’re working!
- Storing flammable materials: Whether you’re storing propane at home or a big batch of cleaning fluids at your business, they need to be put away safely. Flammable items should be kept well away from any kind of heat source at all times.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can UWRG help with the insurance process?
Definitely, we know how much of a pain paperwork can be after dealing with a fire. You’ve got other, more important things on your mind. We partner with insurance providers to take the process off your hands while we work on the restoration project.
Do you charge for an assessment?
No, we offer free assessments before getting the project going. We’ll investigate how far fire, smoke, and soot damage have spread before developing a customized strategy. You’ll get a nice overhead view of the damage and how we approach your fire damage restoration in Loveland.
How much does smoke damage affect my HVAC system?
More than you’d probably think at first. Smoke is extremely mobile, and as soon as a fire starts, it begins its journey through your home. Once it makes its way into your ducts, it can coat vital components like coils in your air conditioner, and once it lands there, it will continue to spread every time the system kicks on. It can also lower your HVAC system’s efficiency.
Do I need to worry about mold after a fire?
It may surprise you, but yes, mold is a big problem once a fire is contained. Putting out a fire means a large amount of water hitting your home. Once the firefighting is done, all that moisture can seep into drywall, floors, and other surfaces, leading to quick mold growth if your home isn’t properly dried out.
