Summer Preparation!

As we approach the summer season, it is important to recognize the potential risks to both yourself and your property due to the shift in climate and activities associated with this time of year.  SERVPRO of Cecil County would like to remind you to stay cautious while enjoying the season!

• Grilling: If you're planning a barbecue or cookout, make sure to follow proper grilling safety guidelines to help prevent fire damage.  Keep your grill at least 10 feet away from your home or any flammable materials, and never leave it unattended while in use. Regularly clear the grill of excess grease and cooking residue.
• Fireworks Safety: If you plan to use fireworks during any celebrations, follow local laws and regulations regarding their use.  Always have a designated adult supervise fireworks activities, and never point them at people, animals, or structures.
• Mold: Regularly clean areas that are prone to moisture. This will help to prevent mold from growing. Bathrooms and the area around your windows are often found to contain mold.
• Hurricane Season: Stay alert to local weather reports and have an evacuation plan prepared. Create an emergency kit in the event of a power outage or other storm damage disaster.

By keeping these safety tips in mind, you can ensure an enjoyable summer while prioritizing the well-being of yourself and those around you.  Should you suffer an unexpected disaster, SERVPRO of Cecil County can restore the affected areas to preloss conditions!
