Why Use Mitigation Contractor over a General Contractor

Many customers wonder if SERVPRO is a better choice then a general contractor when it comes to flood restoration.

Here are the top 7 reasons why you should use a flood restoration company:

1. Safety first: Your family’s health is of the utmost importance. Many floodwaters carry bacteria and other hazardous materials that can cause serious health problems.

3. Ensure complete cleanup: The pros know where to look for hidden damage and water pooling. They will ensure that all water is removed and that your home is completely dry.
4. Provide assistance with insurance companies: A flood restoration company can help you navigate the insurance claims process and ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve.
5. Advice on preventing future water damage: A flood restoration company can provide you with advice on how to prevent future water damage. They will help you identify potential problem areas and provide you with tips on how to keep your home safe.
6. Reduce overall loss: The longer you wait to address water damage, the more damage it can cause. A flood restoration company can help you reduce overall loss by addressing the damage quickly and efficiently.
7. Quick, safe, and reliable mold remediation: Mold can grow quickly in damp environments. A flood restoration company can help you prevent mold growth by addressing the damage quickly and efficiently.
