Notre Dame fire causes
On April 15, a fire swept through the famous Notre Dame Cathedral. The fire lasted [past tense verb needed] almost 9 hours and the damage inside of the Cathedral was vast. Even after the fire have been extinguished, the police couldn´t enter [you don't need "inside" after "enter" because enter means "come or go into"] the site for some days because of concerns about the stability of the damaged structure.
Because of that, the investigators ["Have" deleted so that later sentences follow the order of the story. For example, when I tell a story, I say "I went to the store and believed the price was cheap," but I do not say, "I have gone to the store and believed the price was cheap."] started ["Investigation" is odd to have here. "Started questioning" is good enough.] questioning staff and workers and reviewing a cache of amateur video and photos from local residences. With these analyses, they ["Have" deleted for verb tense. Also, I do not say in a story, "I went to a store and have believed the price was cheap." I say "I went to a store and believed the price was cheap."]believed that the fire had[use the past perfect tense after a past tense verb. "Had" is the past perfect.] been caused by short-circuiting. And the workers of renovation told the investigators that they had noticed the blaze when it was almost 3 meters tall ["meters" needs to be plural. We also need an adjective like "tall" to understand what the three meters means for the fire. Otherwise, we may think it's 3 meters wide!], so ["so" is used here as a conjunction to explain that the investigators made this conclusion because of this event. "And" is not as good. ]  the investigators have concluded that the fire alarm sensors might not have been working properly. The architect in charge of Notre-Dame until 2013, Benjamin Mouton, had been concerned ["had concerned" is not the right verb. "To be concerned" would be "Had been concerned" in this case. You tried using "to concern" in this sentence, I think. "To concern" means "to relate to" but "to be concerned" means "to be worried"] about installing lights amid the beams because they [We put these words so that readers know we are explaining.] might be a fire risk and a combustion potential.
Ten days after the accident, police were allowed to enter and search inside Cathedral for clues and the investigation has been converging around two theories: a short-circuit - the first theory - and cigarettes. Police have found cigarette butts on the scaffolding, although, it was forbidden under company rules. Because of restoration work before the fire, the cathedral had more than 200 tonnes of scaffolding around the spire. [In the old order of the last sentence, it appeared to me that the cathedral had already been repaired and that there was much scaffolding there. I changed the sentence to make it clear that restoration work before the fire is why there was so much scaffolding.]
