As the local leader in restoration for fire damage, SERVPRO of Bismarck wants to keep you informed of ways to prevent fire from having a devastating impact on your life. 

Here are some tips from The Red Cross:

• Install smoke alarms on every level of your home, inside bedrooms and outside sleeping areas. 
• Test smoke alarms every month. If they are not working, change the batteries.
• Talk with all family members about a fire escape plan and practice the plan twice a year.
• If a fire occurs inside your home, GET OUT, STAY OUT, and CALL FOR HELP. Never go back inside for anything or anyone. 

"Who should I contact if a fire happens?"

• Immediately dial 911 and have first responders there as soon as possible.
• Make sure anyone who was in the house is out. DO NOT go back into a burning building for people, pets, or belongings. Nothing is as important as your safety. 
• Once the fire as been extinguished, contact your insurance provider and see what your policy covers. 
• Have them contact us, SERVPRO of Bismarck, and we will work with them for you to make sure everything is restored back to perfect condition.
