Home Inventory Lists Made Easy in Eugene?

1/3/2023 (Permalink)

We restore property damage 24-hours a day in Lane County.

An up-to-date home inventory list makes processing fire and water damage insurance claims easier. Our South Eugene and Florence teams offer these tips from the Insurance Information Institute for generating a home inventory list.

• Pick an easy spot to start – A contained area—like your small kitchen appliance cabinet, sporting equipment closet, or handbag shelf—is a great place to get started.
• List recent purchases– Another way to start is with recent purchases—get into the inventory habit, and then tackle your older possessions.
• Include the basic information – In general, describe each item you record, note where you bought it, the make and model, what you paid, and any other detail that might help if you need to make a claim.
• Count clothing by general category (Jeans, shirts, etc.)
• Record serial numbers
• Check coverage on big-ticket items – Jewelry, art, and collectibles may have increased value and need special coverage separate from your standard homeowners insurance policy. While making your home inventory list, check with your agent to ensure you have adequate insurance for these items before a loss.
• Don’t forget off-site items
• Keep proof of value– Store sales receipts, purchase contracts, and appraisals with your list

Halloween Party Cut Short by Candle Fire in Pleasant Hill Home?

10/3/2022 (Permalink)

We restore fire damage 24-hours a day in Lane County.

Who doesn’t love a good Halloween party? Our South Eugene and Florence team want everyone in Pleasant Hill to have a safe, fire-damage-free Halloween. The National Fire Protection Association reports that more than one-third of Halloween fires are from decorations that have caught fire from a candle. The big day will be here sooner than we think, so here are some safety tips from the NFPA:

• When choosing a costume, stay away from long trailing fabric that can ignite easily
• Dried flowers, cornstalks, and crepe paper catch fire easily. Keep all decorations away from open flames and other heat sources like light bulbs and heaters.
• If you use a real candle, use extreme caution. Make sure children are watched at all times when candles are lit. When lighting candles inside jack-o-lanterns, use long, fireplace-style matches or a utility lighter. Be sure to place lit pumpkins well away from anything that can burn and far enough out of the way of trick-or-treaters, doorsteps, walkways, and yards.
• Remember to keep exits clear of decorations, so nothing blocks escape routes
• Make sure all smoke alarms in the home are working
• Keep children away from open flames, including jack-o-lanterns with candles in them. Be sure they know how to stop, drop and roll if their clothing catches fire.

Should I Have a Professional Crawl Space Inspection in Eugene?

8/16/2022 (Permalink)

We restore water damage 24-hours a day in Lane County.

Have you noticed an unpleasant smell you cannot place? If so, crawl space and attic space inspections might be in order. These two areas of a structure are responsible for circulating air through the home. If you smell something strange or malodorous, you may have something decomposing underneath your home that is causing the odor.

Home and business owners should consider having crawl spaces inspected every six months. These inspections will help to identify areas of the structure that may be compromised by pests, water, or mold. Our local South Eugene and Florence team has the training, equipment, and experience to perform crawl space inspections quickly and efficiently. During these inspections, our technicians look for issues such as:

• Water damage
• Mold and mildew
• Foundation issues
• Electrical issues
• Plumbing issues
• Proper ventilation
• Floor damage

Routine crawl space inspections of homes after storms or water or fire damage will identify any issues. The past few decades have seen a rapid advancement in the technology and techniques used in the restoration industry. We have adopted technologies that help us quickly identify the source, location, and extent of the damage.

Crawl space inspections can identify minor problems before they become major, time-consuming, and expensive repairs. Our local South Eugene and Florence team is a trusted leader in crawl space inspection, cleanup , and restoration services. Call us today at 541-345-0115.
