We have highly trained professionals that can clean soot, and get rid of smoke. SERVPRO of East Mahoning County wishes you a safe and enjoyable summer

Summer is here and everyone has their grill cleaned and ready for cookout season. Families, friends and social gatherings are planned. There are picnics and parties where people will enjoy good company and great cooking. The smells of ribs, hamburgers and hotdogs coming from the grill puts everyone in the mood for good times and great food.

Most everyone has great memories of a summer cookout, but not all end as expected. It is estimated that around 9,000 grilling accidents happen each year in the United States. Some could not be avoided, while some could.

SERVPRO of East Mahoning County wants to make sure your cookout is fun and safe by providing you these 5 safety tips:

1. Make sure you review the grill owner’s manual and operation instructions.
2. Thoroughly clean the grill, making sure drip trays are empty and all grease is cleaned up.
3. Keep grills away from all flammable material and never use a grill inside the home or garage.
4. Have an approved fire extinguisher charged and within reach.
5. Never walk away while grilling. It only takes a second for a fire to get going.
