Why you need SERVPRO of Fairfield.

  • Gets the repairs done properly: Fire and water damage threatens the structural integrity and the safety of the building. A professional service knows what to look out for and has the necessary training to get the job done correctly. This is crucial to restoring the look, safety and value of your property.
  • Helps avoid future remediation expenses: You might think your fire or water damage is minimal and doesn't warrant professional restoration-only to discover hidden problems and be faced with huge remediation expenses in the future. It will cost you even more to have everything redone. Getting an expert service provides peace of mind and protects your investment.
  • Has the right training, experience and safety equipment: This is absolutely essential to the fire or water restoration process. One of the more important chemicals used in cleaning smoke damage is trisodium phosphate - TSP, an extremely powerful and harsh compound that can irritate the skin and eyes severely. Professionals have the training and equipment to get the work done without compromising the health and safety of their customers or staff. In the case of water damage, there is always a risk of mold, another health hazard. Unnecessary exposure can make you seriously ill while inexperienced handling will only cause it to spread. Can you really afford to take that chance?
  • Can deal with your insurance company directly: Fire and water damage is often covered by your insurance. The insurance providers, however, require that you work with approved fire-water restoration companies in order to process your claims. The benefits of working with such a service far outweigh the costs. Being experienced in insurance procedures also means they can save you the stress of navigating the complex claim process as well as help expedite your claims. Industry recognition also offers some assurance of work quality and money well spent.
