Water damage in your Pearl River home? Better call SERVPRO.

SERVPRO in Pearl River can get you back to normal in no time.

We all get distracted from time to time in our Pearl River home. You go to the store to get milk and come home with everything BUT milk. After a long day at work, you yearn for a hot bubble bath. The faucet is on, you pour in the bubbles, and that is when it hits you. You forgot to pick up the package on the front porch. What’s inside is so enticing that you are oblivious to the bath water running upstairs. Uh Oh. 

For those of us living in Pearl River, water damage is complicated even further by the constant presence of heat and humidity. An accident like this can go from bad to worse in a matter of hours. The longer the water remains, the deeper it seeps into your floor joists, walls, and ceiling. Mold, rotted wood, electrical issues, weakened floors, and crumbling ceilings are just some of the fallouts SERVPRO can help you prevent. On-call and available 24/7, our professionals respond any time of day or night. The quicker you make the call, the less hassle you may have and the more money you can save.

When water accumulates on a linoleum floor, it can find its way to  fill up above the room below. From there, it seeps through the space around the hole in your ceiling where the light fixture hangs. But what you do not see is what can cause problems. We use moisture sensors and thermal imaging cameras to locate the hidden water. Individual meters tell us how wet the area is and how much humidity is in the air. SERVPRO’s state of the art equipment determines the best drying method to use so our team can bring your home back from the brink. Our skilled technicians, many of whom are certified by the IICRC (Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification) have the experience, equipment, and know-how to mitigate the issue quickly. Restoration can be swift or it may be time-consuming. Reconstruction and renovations are time-consuming and costly. 

Events like water damage happen to the best of us. Our highly-experienced and empathetic professionals can make you feel, “Like it never even happened.” So next time you have an “uh oh” moment, remember it pays to act quickly! Call SERVPRO of Slidell at (985) 649-1516.
