We respond to fire damage emergencies 24-hours a day in Wayne County.

SERVPRO^® of St. Clair Shores responds to fire damage emergencies in Grosse Pointe Shores 24-hours a day. Often, we arrive onsite as the Grosse Point Shores Fire Department’s firefighters are still working, and we will work alongside these first responders to clean up the damage. Smoke alarms are an effective way of getting out of a burning house safely when they are working properly.

Here is some helpful information from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), on smoke alarms:

• A closed-door may slow the spread of smoke, heat, and fire. Install smoke alarms in every sleeping room and outside each separate sleeping area. Install alarms on every level of the home. 
• Smoke alarms should be interconnected. When one sounds, they all sound. 
• Large homes may need extra smoke alarms
• Test your smoke alarms at least once a month. Press the test button to be sure the alarm is working.
• Today’s smoke alarms will be more technologically advanced to respond to a multitude of fire conditions, yet mitigate false alarms
• When a smoke alarm sounds, get outside and stay outside
• Replace all smoke alarms in your home every 10 years
