Servpro is a leader in Fire and Water damage restoration with 24/7 emergency service. We are located in Sunderland Vermont and can respond to virtually all emergency calls within a 4 hour period

"I own a home in Rutland and Called Servpro Yesterday, the 25th of January. Like many in the area, the nasty weather has caused flooding and we woke up to a wet basement. Having had excellent experiences in the past with Servpro in other parts of the country, I immediately thought of them. I will need to ensure that this situation is remedied properly as the basement is finished and our bedroom is down there. I called and spoke to a woman on the phone for a while. She was quite helpful as I had several questions. I wanted to get them out to the house and she explained that as the situation was bad all over, the earliest they could come was Sunday. There were about 30 cases ahead of mine. Having limited options and wanting to have the work done by the professionals, I signed up. I did tell the lady that I had a plumber coming out shortly to verify the problem was not mechanical related and that I would call back before 5 to verify. I also told her I would begin an insurance claim. She advised me to hold on as my deductible is $1000 and the job might not be that much. I asked her how late she was working and she told me 5:00 pm. I called back close to 5 and some clueless man answered the phone. You know, you would think that a company like Servpro would train people on proper phone skills. I asked to speak to the woman I had spoke to earlier and he said she was gone. I told him I would like to verify my Sunday appointment and he said I was not on the list and that Tuesday would be the earliest. This was unacceptable to me as I know the difference a couple of days can mean to a wet basement, carpeting, furniture and walls. I repeated my request for Sunday and he simply reiterated that it would be Tuesday earliest, with no empathy or concern evident in hos tone. He said that the notes said I was going to get an insurance claim started and was holding off pending getting that action. Not at all true but why would it matter? The work had to be done. I wanted them to come out. I did explain to him, even though it is irrelevant, that the other agent had recommended against starting a claim pending estimating the job. To my disbelief, he told me that she had not said that, as if he were in the room to hear the conversation. Well, she had. At this point, I pretty much decided that perhaps the safety of my home, placed in the care of people that obviously don’t care, might not be the best idea. I told him that at this point I was uncomfortable and he rudely told me to get some one else, as If that was nor already the plan. I hung up. I am not one to write bad reviews, as I believe they do impact others thoughts, in this case, I simply cannot refrain. I will be leaving reviews anywhere else that I can think of and contacting Servpro National. Beware, It did not feel like he was having a bad day, it felt like it was normal."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, a seller is legally required to disclose any known fire damage when selling a house, including damages that were repaired. That includes damages to structural components and all major systems, as well as water damage, chemical damage, and smoke damage related to the fire. Sellers use a property disclosure statement, which is regulated by each state individually, to disclose fire damage.

In many cases, homeowners insurance will cover smoke damage remediation costs , depending on the cause of the damage and the details of your insurance policy. Consult your policy before making a claim to ensure you have all the necessary documentation and follow the appropriate steps to make your claim. Your insurance company may have approved smoke remediation companies for you to choose from to help make the process smoother.

Living in a house with smoke damage could be safe on a temporary basis, but it depends on the severity and type of smoke damage. If you have major smoke damage or soot present from a fire, you should relocate to keep you and your family safe. Breathing in soot can cause respiratory issues, and it can contain carcinogens, so move out until you get professional remediation done. Your insurance company may cover the cost for alternative housing while your professional works.

Homeowner’s insurance will almost always cover fire damage and repairs unless your insurer finds the fire was caused intentionally. In most cases, if the fire was an accident, your provider will cover the cost of emergency services, like roof tarping and emergency securing, as well as the actual fire damage remediation and buildback to bring your home back to its previous condition. They should also cover alternative housing for as long as the fire damage restoration takes. You’ll just be responsible for paying the deductible.

Burning a single palm tree stump, if you’re careful, is technically doable DIY. However, you should always take precautions to control the fire and do research if you’re burning multiple types of trees. 

Some trees, such as ornamental trees, black cherry, and some oak trees, release toxins into the air when burned that can be irritating to your lungs (or even dangerous) to breathe in.
