History of BLAZE Fire Investigation

Blaze fire investigation was founded in 1992 by Senior Fire Investigator Robert Leonard.  With the help of our valued clients, Blaze Fire Investigation developed into a highly regarded business earning a name for excellent service. 

In the mid-1990’s, an Accelerant Detection Dog joined our team.  Blaze Fire investigation was the first privately held fire investigation company in Wisconsin to acquire the services of an Accelerant Detection Dog.  Appropriately, the dog was named Blaze.  Blaze retired in 2001 after helping out on over 170 fires during her career.

Blaze Fire Investigation celebrated its 15th year of service in 2008 and investigated its 1000th fire.  As a natural progression of our growth as a company and a logical extension of our services, Blaze was acquired by Anderson Engineering of New Prague Inc. in 2011.  Demand for fire investigation services has been very strong and because we share an emphasis on client satisfaction, Anderson Engineering is an excellent fit to strengthen Blaze’s service offerings.  Blaze clients now have increased administrative and evidence technician support as well as access to professional forensic electrical engineering services. 

It is our goal at Blaze Fire Investigation to provide our clients with the utmost in professionalism and customer service.  Blaze is currently providing fire investigation services in Wisconsin and Arizona.
