Storms: SERVPRO makes the jump to help others impacted by disaster

As we enter into Fall, with Oregon weather comes lots of rain and moisture in our environment.

The rain is the precursor to storm weather, however the way we at SERVPRO interpret storms are in terms of great disaster.

A couple months ago, fires scorched California forests, which led to the damage of many homes within the area.

During disasters like this, SERVPRO will issue out a storm alert, and notify all the SERVPROs, this can be SERVPROs from the next town over, to all the way across the country.

SERVPRO crews stay in disaster zones sometimes up to a month, depending on the severity.

The crews will drive from their respective locations to the disaster and begin to sell jobs to start the reconstruction process. The sooner reconstruction commences, the less damage can occur. When damage, whether is be fire or water, is left and no intervention is done immediately, secondary damage can occur, and end up costing more.

The crews will complete the process quickly, so residents that “weathered through the storm” can move back in to their homes, and resume life “Like it never even happened”.

Disasters can be scary, but your local SERVPRO is always up for the challenge to help our community!
