Servpro - Faster To Any-Sized Disaster

How We Ensure a Fast Response to Chicago Homes

Every disaster that occurs in your Chicago home or apartment requires the full measure of our experienced personnel, service vehicles, and premier recovery equipment. Situations like frozen pipes do not leave homeowners with the luxury of waiting until the following morning, or even several days for competent responders. Our SERVPRO restoration technicians understand the need for fast arrival to protect the structure and belongings, and that is why we strive to arrive at a damaged address within hours of the initial contact.

Advantages of Our Emergency Response Team

It is no great surprise that reacting quickly to a pressing emergency in your home can mean less restoration and recovery needs. Water and fire losses, for example, can continually worsen hour to hour, making any saved time a valuable asset to the protection of your most treasured possessions. Our prompt response amid a disaster can ensure that the appropriate mitigation steps get taken early so that situations like the frozen pipe do not flood the entire lower level of your Chicago property.

• Highly trained technicians accredited through the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC) in specific niches of the restoration industry.
• Licensed contractors for controlled demolition and repairs to plumbing, flooring, and structural concerns.
• Competent inspection professionals to determine preloss condition with the help of our customers.
• Fully stocked production vehicles with efficient recovery tools, including air movers, dehumidifiers, extractors, deodorizers, and more.
