Heating season fires
Long heating seasons in New York raise fire risk. The NFPA identifies heating equipment as a leading cause of home fires, and furnace puff-backs can send soot through every duct in the house.
Hurricane season and fire recovery
After hurricanes in New York, generator and electrical fires are a known hazard. Fire restoration here often overlaps with water and wind damage, so documenting each separately helps your claim.
Basements after a fire
In New York's many homes with basements, firefighting water drains downward and smoke collects below grade, so basements often need water extraction and smoke cleaning even when the fire was upstairs.
