Highland Lakes - Trust SERVPRO for Water Damage Cleanup and Restoration

You might be surprised that tens of thousands of water-related emergencies happen in homes throughout the country every single year. Many homeowners are embarrassed to call for skilled restoration, so they take the chances of going the DIY route. Unfortunately, this can mean hidden water damage from leftover moisture, the onset of potentially harmful black mold, and more. SERVPRO wants area residents to know that we are always available for water damage services so that you can live and breathe easier in your home once again!

More often than not, failed DIY water cleanup leads to the need for professional water damage restoration in Highland Lakes. You may think that replacing that burst pipe under your bathroom sink seemed easy enough, but you forgot to look for areas where water migrated. This leaves you open to saturated structural materials, insulation, and bacterial growth.

We’re Faster to Any Size Disaster!

SERVPRO knows that accidents happen, which is why our response times are short, and we bring all the equipment necessary to mitigate damage, facilitate drying, and scope out all areas where moisture might be hiding.

• Reaction time is critical, which is why we show up within hours of your call.
• Shutting off the water until we arrive helps reduce water damage.
• Prompt cleanup of standing water helps lessen the chance of mold and secondary damage.

Why is Moisture Detection Important?

Our IICRC-certified technicians use thermal imaging technology and moisture sensors to locate all hidden areas where water traveled. We may remove toe-kicks under cabinetry to set up drying equipment. Our crew also has access to EPA-registered antifungal cleaning products to help inhibit mold growth. Everything gets left “Like it never even happened,” once we get done, so you are back to life as usual.

We can send a team out for water damage restoration efforts with one call to SERVPRO of Greater Sussex County at (973) 383-2024. You can also request help online!
