Contact SERVPRO of Jackson/SE Ingham County today. We work with you and your insurance company to get things back to normal quickly.
If you have sustained fire or water damage to your home, there are few things more important than choosing the right team to work with for restoration.
The time after your home is damaged can be disorienting. Many homeowners aren’t entirely unsure of what to do after they discover damage to their homes.
The right first step is to be sure you’re calling a restoration company you can trust. You’ll want to ensure the restoration company you choose will do the job well.
Damage Is a Common ProblemThere’s a common misconception about dealing with home damage—that it’s rare.
People hate thinking about it, but the truth is that home damage is very common. Millions of homeowners are faced with situations that damage their homes every year.
The Insurance Information Institute estimates that fire damage impacts one every 350 homes every year. When you broaden the scope and look at every possible cause of home damage (like storms, accidents, and flooding), it’s actually closer to one out of every 20.
Don’t worry. Instead, use this information as a motivation to have a plan in place. Knowing how to choose your restoration partner is key.
We want to be our area’s preferred restoration partner. That is exactly why we prioritize our technicians’ training when they join our team.
Education Is a Difference-MakerWe provide excellent service, and that’s on several levels. It includes response time, availability and training. We take special pride in the level of training our technicians to receive.
Members of our team earn valuable certifications through the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification. This non-profit group provides various certifications to ensure restoration and cleaning technicians can use the latest proven techniques when restoring your home.
That means that when you call on SERVPRO for help restoring your home, you can be assured you’re working with the best.
If your home is damaged due to a fire or any other cause, you can always count on us for restoration assistance. We have teams who are available 24/7 in the event of an emergency. Contact us at any time more about our restoration services and how we can help your family.
