Fire Damage Roxborough – Oven Grease Fire

An oven grease fire can develop a great deal of smoke and soot, which can spread throughout your home. If there is soot, it coats everything, including kitchen cabinets, floors, walls, and furniture. A small grease fire can do a great deal of damage. If the fire department used foam to extinguish the fire, it adds to the amount of cleaning needed. Never pour water on a grease fire. Smother it if possible and call for help.
