You Can’t Afford to Wait When Your Home Is Damaged | SERVPRO® of New Center/Highland Park

There aren’t many things anymore for which we have to wait. Short of teleportation, we’ve really gotten to the core of a great many situations which require a sit-and-wait mentality at this point. And that’s a great thing!

As much as some may wear “I had to wait for it in my day” as a badge of honor, it’s truly a blessing to have so much instant access to so much of what we need.

Take assistance from SERVPRO for example. (You didn’t think we wrote all this to talk about something else, did you?) When you have an overnight disaster at home, waiting for service isn’t an option—not only as a matter of convenience, but as a matter of necessity. SERVPRO is ready 24 hours a day to tackle your emergency cleanup and recovery, because there’s more than the initial damage at stake.

After a fire. The first wave of a raging fire does damage that’s obvious, mostly making its evidence plain by way of things you can no longer see. But fire leaves behind a lasting artifact—thick, black soot is the product of unfinished combustion, and it coats your carpet and plasters your interior with ebony goo minutes after a fire.

Soon thereafter, it becomes irreversible, leaving your home with stains from soot and smell from smoke that can’t be simply dealt with, meaning your walls and carpets have to be totally replaced in order to get that clean, fresh feeling back. Quick action can prevent this misfortune as much as possible.

After water damage. The race is on once water breaks containment: You have only 48 hours to get your home free of invading water and the resulting excess moisture, or you have a mold problem on top of your water issue. You now risk health issues and structural damage to walls and more. If you have to wait a weekend’s time before your home can get help, it’s already too late.

On top of these scenarios, your home can be subjected to damage from storms, natural disasters and other freak incidents which require immediate care. SERVPRO is always ready—we’re on the other side of this screen right now, waiting for your click or call. When we get the alert, we’ll be on the way, regardless of the day or time.

When you need help after a home or business disaster, fast service is a priority, and there’s nobody faster or more prepared than SERVPRO. Call us anytime to take advantage of our 24-hour emergency service.
