What can be saved after a house fire?

  1. The house

As long as the structure and the foundations are not destroyed, your house can still be restored. The house needs to be checked by professionals to know whether it can be restored or turned down and rebuilt. Either way, it is still expensive, which is why insurance is important in cases like this.


2. Clothing and fabrics

As mentioned earlier, burned and charred clothing and fabrics cannot be saved. For items that are not affected by the fire, wash them with the appropriate solution to remove the smell of smoke.


4. Appliances

These items that survive the fire must be checked first by electricians to know if they could still be used. There might not be fire damages but it is possible that damages are caused by water. To be sure, let them be checked before another accident happens due to faulty wirings.


5. Furniture and fixtures

Furniture made of glass or metal may survive the fire since it needed extreme heat to deform. Although it may seem intact, they may blacken due to charring. You can save these items by washing them with soap and vinegar, then sand the surface and repaint.

Never save items that could put your health at risk. Ask professionals before doing something you’re not sure of. These damaged and broken items can still be replaced. The most important thing is you and your family are safe and that is all that matters.
