The City of Palm Coast Fire Department is resuming home safety inspections through its community outreach programs after suspending them in 2020 due to COVID-19.
Residents can request a variety of inspections at no cost to them to be proactive in keeping their homes and families protected. Fire inspectors, following Centers For Disease Control and Prevention COVID-19 guidelines, will come to your home and work directly with you. The inspections provide professional insight and advice for homeowners and include the following categories:
The Fire Department can also assist with car seat installation and safety checks at any Palm Coast fire station location.
“Throughout the past year, Palm Coast firefighters have proven their unwavering strength and commitment to respond to any and all emergencies, whether it be fire or health related,” said Palm Coast Fire Chief Jerry Forte. “Now, this team of highly-trained professionals is excited to get back out into the community and provide residents with the tools and tips they need to ensure they’re safe at all times in the comfort of their homes while preventing potential disasters.”
