If a fire issue pops up during the holidays, remember the trusted leader in the recovery industry, SERVPRO of Bartow County.

Think back to the time when you would race during a commercial break of your favorite show to use the restroom, all to get the call from across the house “it’s on!” Not that long ago, that’s what we had to do when we watched TV, there was no such thing as pause or “on demand.”

These days, though, some people don’t even watch local television, it’s all about streaming your favorite shows. Essentially, when you really think about it, life has become so adaptable to what you want that you never really have to wait for much of anything. And while that is amazing, there really are certain things that just can’t be held off. For example, an emergency disaster or accident that has caused damage to your home or business.

We get it! Those things can’t be helped, but they also can’t be ignored, and the quicker you can react, the better off you’ll be. That’s why we have technicians on hand 24⁄7 because we know most disasters or accidents don’t happen at our convenience.

| After a Fire |  

Your home or business will likely have structural damage, but also damage to the possessions inside of the building. If the fire didn’t destroy your possessions, it’s likely that they will be covered in soot.

Most people believe soot to be a powdery film when in reality it’s a sticky powder that eventually embeds itself into carpets or certain materials causing corrosion.

Along with soot and fire, you have the smell of smoke in your building that will not go away on its own. Then firefighters use massive amounts of water to put out the fire, and you realize your home is now soaked through to the studs.

| After Water Damage | 

Your home is finally “fire-free,” and now you realize it’s been drenched and water is now a major issue for you. With water damage, you have 48 hours or less to get it cleaned up before you are greeted with yet another problem–mold.

Mold can grow in a matter of hours depending on the environment. And it not only can cause even more structural damage, but now it’s a concern for your health.

Even though you’ve been put through the wringer, the reality is: The longer your home or business is “destroyed,” the more damage that can occur through other things like storms. This is why a quick reaction time to any damage is crucial.

Because we are a restoration company, we have seen damage to all kinds of buildings, and we understand that quick response is imperative. That is why we have someone ready to take your call at any moment’s notice. Our priority is helping you get your home or business on the road to recovery.
