Houston Fire Damage, Houston Fire Damage Claim, and State Fire Damage Statistics
Over the years, the rate of fire incidents in Texas have remained consistent, with roughly 75,000 fires occurring every year (one fire every 7 minutes). Overall, property fire damage in Texas have caused $500,000 in property damaged (fire damaged property), and even though house fire damage, and business fire damage represents 30% of the total number of fires, the vast majority of deaths, injuries and fire claim losses due to property damages are caused by structural fires. 80% of all structural fires involved residential properties (residential structural fire), with cooking as the most common cause of Houston House fire damage, and nationwide, which is responsible for $10,000,000 in property claims losses per year. Nevertheless, the exact cause of the fire has not been able to be determined in roughly half of all incidents of structural fires. This further emphasizes the importance of having a fire policy, as preventative measures alone will not significantly reduce the risk of a fire loss.
