Facing Damage From a Fire: What to Expect

7/18/2019 (Permalink)

Here at SERVPRO of Wesley Chapel we might handle more water damage projects then fire, but our fire damage projects consume majority of our time. The cleaning process after a fire tends to be rather long and detail oriented to remove all of the soot, ash, and smoke from your home or business, but we are the ones to get it done, and done well. Our crew here at SERVPRO takes the time to make sure the work is done properly and effectively because we truly can make it “Like it never even happened.”

Our team here at SERVPRO of Wesley Chapel might be familiar with the process and the aftermath of what a fire leaves, but those who call our company do not. Majority of the time our customers are people who have never had an experience like this before, and we understand. We understand the emotional and stressful implications a fire leaves on your life and that is why it is our goal to lessen that burden. We are here to walk you through the process of exactly what is happen, when it will happen, and how it will happen. As we do our best to work with empathy, we work alongside with clients making sure everyone is on the same page throughout the whole process.
