Avoiding Secondary Damage

It is avoidable!

Secondary damage is the damage that occurs after a fire damage or flood damage incident. This damage can be prevented if action is taken promptly. Richfords first task is always to reduce secondary damage. Secondary damage increases the cost of insurance claims.

Examples of damage are corrosion and staining caused by acid fire residues and swelling of wood and mould (mold) growth from water.


The cost of any insurance claims can increase significantly if secondary damage continues to occur and preventative action is not taken.

To reduce secondary damage

Our Quick Response vehicles are ready at all times to respond to your call for assistance.

We are able to quickly remove laying water, reduce the humidity, elimate mould (mold) and prevent secondary water damage. For black water flooding (unsanitary water), we ensure that the property is thoroughly cleaned and sanitised.
