    Attached garage fire, ugh

    Correct, the line burned down on top of my truck. I'm wondering if the neutral possibly broke before the main line causing an excessive amount of power.

    No issues, they have been great so far! I just wanted to try to save some of my tools!

    They are covered, but I like my stuff. If I can do some work to keep tools instead of replacing my USA stuff with "new" Chinese, then bring on the diesel fuel, lol.

    I don't have power and my generators were in the garage. Thank you for the response. I will look into one and perhaps borrow a generator.

    My first claim ever and I have had this house with the same insurance company since 2006. The fact that there are arcing scars on my truck, and the power line was dragged so far up the driveway hopefully helped to alleviate any chance of a red flag.

    I am staying where I have access to a washer and dryer. I let the first load soak in baking soda and it came out smoke free. Now that my clothes have sat even longer, the next two loads I washed still stink. I read online about the diesel soak: Soaking metal hand tools in diesel after a fire...

    I am not saying this was the cause on a public forum, but PLEASE make sure you don't put any solvent soaked rags in your trash. 🔥🔥🔥

    Lots of smoke damage inside, and every drawer of my tool boxes (5 of them) were filled with black soup because the drawer liners prevented them from draining. The fire happened on 6/5 just after 2am and I wasn't allowed to touch anything until the inspector finished his investigation yesterday...

    They left the door that leads from the house to the garage open after the fire, I didn't discover that until the next day when I went back. Fire department left at around 4:30AM and I sat in my truck in the driveway and watched the roof smoke and an orange glow emerge twice. I thought I was...

    They were able to stop the fire from entering the house, but did a lot of damage chopping the walls open on both the first and second floor. I had some metal panels on that front corner of the garage, I think that did a lot to save the house. I had Unlock pavers stacked up there for my back...

I had a massive amount of tools and renovation materials inside, as I have been renovating my house and storing materials in the garage. I would love any insight people may have that have experience with this, and I will share my...

    Harbor Freight Coupon Thread

    Same here, nobody has been able to resolve it. I have tried with online customer service 4 times and I have asked every time I was in the store, including today (5 times). The manager was the one ringing me out and I had already given up on the membership and he told me he would look into it, so...
