Choose The Right Restoration Company For Your Home

10/16/2019 (Permalink)

Unexpected home damage is always a shock for homeowners. It can be difficult to determine what to do next or how to react in the moment.

That is why, we always recommend that homeowners plan ahead for these types of situations, so if the damage occurs, they’ll know immediately who to call. But how do you know you’re choosing the right restoration company?

There is a lot of information surrounding the restoration industry, so it is important to narrow it down by determining what is actually important. Here are some key points to consider when making your choice:

Their Areas of Expertise

It is not uncommon for home damages to require more than one aspect of restoration. For example, cleaning up fire damage involves ridding the air of toxic particles and water damage often involves restoring structures. SERVPRO of Barrie is certified and experienced in all aspects of damage, making us the forefront leader in making sure all of your needs are met and exceeded, from start to finish.

Their Night and Weekend Availability

Damages have a knack for occurring at the most inconvenient times, so it is important to pick a company that will be there whenever you call. Because we have a 24⁄7 emergency line, we are able to guarantee we’ll always be there when you need us.

Their Level of Training

It is important for a company to invest in the training of their technicians to guarantee they will be prepared for any damage situation that arises. The restoration industry has high standards for training, which is what we use as our guideline for all educational materials.

Their Ability to Scale

Because we are a local franchise with a massive network of 1700 other locations in North America alone, SERVPRO of Barrie can scale as needed for larger disasters. This ensures that we can treat a single-home fire with the same level of care as we would a city-wide disaster; providing exceptional service in both cases.

If you have experienced storm damage, we are always here to help! Call our restoration experts 24/7  so we can address your damages quickly and make it ‘Like It Never Even Happened’.
