What our
customers are saying
I definitely recommend this company 10 out of 10 to anyone who needs fast response, extensive service and fantastic people to handle water damage!!
I would highly Recommend this SERVPRO. Thank you so very much from my mother and Me!
Recommend highly
The entire crew was professional and friendly at the same time. The supervisor Vince Gerrits communicated with us on a daily basis so I felt confident about the process. Vince also is knowledgeable about how the claims process works with the plumber and restoration company so he had all the answers to questions
Totally happy with how quick my disaster was fixed and repaired! They followed up and my insurance company was totally happy.
A terrible disaster made bearable by their kind quick response. Great working with them
Art and his crew were fantastic.
It's not often, in fact it's rare, that a service company representative looks you in the eyes and tells you what they're going to do...then actually do what they promised AND then some! The team from Serve Pro RSM was prompt, highly communicative, thorough with their restoration plan, patient with questions and concerns, courteous and careful with our floors and belongings and cleaned up tools, dust and debris each day. We highly recommend Edwin, Art, Cesar and Ulysses for their teamwork and professionalism. Even our dog “Macie” and cat “Charlie” were happy to see them. Thanks to them and the Serve Pro management!
With gratitude,

I was very happy with SERVPRO and the service they provided. Thank you to Edwin and Juan art and Danny.would highly recommend
This note is to compliment Vincent Gerrits and his team of SERVPRO specialists who answered my call about a water leak from the outside to the inside of my home.
Vincent and his team did a thorough investigation, inside and outside my home to assess the problem. While ultimately the main problem needs to be addressed by a landscape contractor. Vincent assured me that the leak staining the wall and carpet area inside was one that could be rectified with simple drying methods and that the wall itself was still solid.
While this problem was very upsetting because we are all home-bound right now, Vincent and his team put my mind at ease that this was a situation that would be easily resolved.
Thank you for sending such professionals.
