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."

"I had the pleasure of working with Chris on 12/27/20. We had the unpleasant task of a major sewer line backup and overflow in an apartment building that I manage. The ceilings on the first floor had fallen in, and poo water was everywhere. He was absolutely no nonsense professional in getting a stinky situation under control. He knew exactly what needed to be done, and he wasted no time doing it in a thorough and professional manner. He was helpful through the entire project, from cleaning up the nastiness, to dealing with the insurance company, and getting the tenants back into their home. I would absolutely recommend using their services, and I am sure the situation will arise again. As a general handyman, this was way out of my realm, and I am grateful to have found Chris, and Paul Davis from Hardwick, VT."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Smoke smell can linger for months or even years and will not go away on its own once it’s penetrated into your walls, floors, ceilings, and furniture. The particles that give smoke its distinctive smell can permeate every corner of your home and can take a very long time to dissipate. Your best bet to combat smoke smell is a combination of thorough cleaning, air purifying, and replacing heavily damaged materials.

All of the components of stucco are non-combustible, so the siding material won’t ignite or spread fire to the interior of your home. However, it also expands and contracts with changes in temperature, so it will crack from long exposure to heat. Eventually, fire will spread through those cracks. Still, stucco is one of the best siding materials for fire protection and can keep you and your family safe for an hour, on average.

Costs depend on the extent of damage, material restoration, labor, and emergency service requirements.

Depending on the amount of soot present, you can vacuum some of it using a brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner. Then, remove the leftovers with a mild cleaner, such as dish soap or vinegar mixed with water. Before applying a cleaning solution, saturate the bricks with clean water to prevent the cleaner from penetrating beyond the surface and causing structural damage to the bricks.

Yes, mineral spirits are flammable and may spontaneously combust at temperatures of 200 degrees F or more. Storing them in well-ventilated spaces and disposing of them the proper way are the best ways to prevent mineral spirits or anything contaminated with them, like towels and rags, from going up in smoke.
