This is why you can rely on SERVPRO of Olmos Park to get the job done quickly, safely, and to sanitation standards.  Many homes and buildings that have been left unattended and/or improperly cared for will generally require this type of service.

Why SERVPRO? SERVPRO of Olmos Park has Great Reviews!

SERVPRO of Olmos Park works very hard every day to ensure a great customer experience. 

The review below is from a customer in Olmos Park whose kitchen flooded with water due to a refrigerator leak. We were able to come out right away and remove the water and dry out the flooring, cabinets, and walls. The sooner the water is removed, the better - especially for wood. 

Her review is below.

"Greatest experience in a very trying time. My house flooded from a broken ice maker line while I was at work. Angel was there within 45 minutes and had the water extracted lightning fast. He came back everyday exactly when he said he would and dried out my house perfectly! Thank you SERVPRO of Olmos Park!"

Thank YOU for the great review!

Why SERVPRO? SERVPRO Uses Industrial Grade Equipment and Cleaning Products on your Home or Business

4/6/2022 (Permalink)

If your home or business has suffered a water damage event, simply cleaning up the water and opening up the windows will not completely dry the space, leaving your home or business vulnerable to future mold growth (known as secondary damage).  SERVPRO of Olmos Park uses industrial grade dehumidifiers and fans to completely dry your home or business.  SERVPRO of Olmos Park uses moister testing devices to make sure your walls, closets, and floors are dry before we leave your home and close out the job.  In addition to drying, commercial grade anti-fungal treatments are applied in order to prevent mold from forming.

If your home or business has suffered a fire damage event, air scrubbers are brought in to the area to "scrub" the air clean and remove the chemical and smoke odor. In addition to air scrubbers, special cleaning agents are used to save as many smoke-affected items as possible in your home or business.

If your home or business has suffered a water damage, fire damage, or mold growth event, please do not hesitate to call us today.
