Garage Fire Damage in Morris, IL Home
Quick clean up and restoration after a power tool battery charger malfunction caused this New Lenox, IL garage fire.
Garages often have a heavy fire load, meaning there is a dense area of flammable materials that may cause a fire to spread rapidly. These fires, because of the densely packed materials, can grow very large and spread to the attic area and even the rest of the home.
Garage fires are most commonly, as was the case in this Morris, IL home, started by an electrical malfunction. These electrical fires can be caused by overloaded outlets, frayed or improper wiring, or battery chargers. Electrical fires start small, but in the presence of accelerants, will rapidly spread.
