"We had a house fire, what should we do? "

We know how distressing and traumatic it can be when your home has been damaged by fire.

The team at R.Askew Electrical & Security Ltd are there to support you and reassure you. We can guide you thought those overwhelming thoughts and feelings and help you make your home safe once again.

Here are some what you should do's in the event of a fire in you home:

1. Raise the alarm

Let everyone in the house know about the fire, shout and get everyone together.

2. Get everyone out of the home

You should have your escape route planned and everyone in your house should be familiar with it.

Do not delay your escape to save valuables or look for pets. Smoke from a fire can knock you unconscious in just two or three breaths.

When you escape:

do not attempt to investigate the fire
crawl along the floor, smoke will rise and the cleanest air is near the floor. Smoke is poisonous and can kill you
as you go out, only open the doors you need to
if you can, close doors behind you. This will reduce the spread of the fire
before you open any doors, feel them with the back of your hand, if they are warm, don’t open them. The fire is likely to be on the other side
if you’re escaping together, stay together if you can.

3. Once you are out, stay out, and call 999 for the fire service

Never go back into the building.
Find somewhere safe to wait.
If there is someone still inside, wait for the fire and rescue service to arrive. You can tell them about the person and they will be able to find them quicker than you.
If you go back into the building, you will slow down the firefighters’ efforts to rescue anyone else missing, as well as putting your own life in danger.

In the unfortunate case your home has been directly hit by lightning, the first thing you should do is call the fire department so they can check everything out. Direct lightning strikes are known to cause significant damage to electrical systems. It’s also common for damaged wiring in your walls or attic to start a fire that you might not even notice right away.

When an electrical system receives a direct lightning strike, the current creates a massive spike in voltage, which causes a significant power surge. If your home isn’t protected from these unexpected electrical spikes, the electronic devices in your home will likely be out of commission. Even if you don’t notice any electrical damage, you should always contact an emergency electrician after your home has been struck by lightning to ensure there are no problems.
