Fire-damaged Garage in Springfield?
5/1/2022 (Permalink)
Garage fires happen.
We were lucky that the fire was contained to the garage, or the insurance company would have declared the fire damage as a total loss. After the fire was extinguished, the Springfield fire department reported that the fire originated from a faulty electrical wire. The smoke and soot from the fire even managed to travel inside the house!
