Fire

"Large Loss Fire/Water Damage"



3 Crandall - Pembroke - 46 unit stick frame condo building

Exterior of the building the day after the fire
The fire department used their large aerial fire truck to put out the fire on the 3rd floor and loft area in the east end.
The water from the aerial truck ran from the fire damaged east end area, down the hall affecting the west end. The third floor was water damaged at 2 feet, the second and first floor areas below where affected top down and required a full gut.
Once the Ontario Fire Marshal released the scene to us, we installed security fencing around the entire perimeter of the building
On the east end of the building, the third floor and loft areas were completely removed, and we gutted all of the second and first floor areas
East end of the building

Notice the missing roof from the east side.
The west wing of the building was affected by smoke damage, and required cleaning and deodorizing.
From the west of the building looking east
We used a large diesel generator to power our desiccants, air movers, and temporary lighting.
At the start of the project we used four desiccant dehumidifiers.
One of the large desiccants being set up for drying.
Ducting for the desiccants using an exterior door, then up the staircase.
