Highly recommend them. They did an excellent job. The crew were very professionally and highly trained. I would give them 10 stars if possible.

Jeff and Isaiah stayed and made sure the job was completed to my satisfaction. Great team!
Excellent company. Very reputable and honest
SERVPRO did an excellent job of "drying" out our house when we had a mold intrusion in the home. They were very concerned with us making the best decisions for cleaning up the house, but also assisting us with saving money by waiting till the weekday instead of having to pay for emergency service. This consideration was very much appreciated as we were already out a good deal of money due to the remodeling we were going to have to do. Awesome job SERVPRO thanks.
“Very good job. Returned to our house in June and did not find any mold. However, I have two dehumidifiers running and a fan, but will do whatever is necessary to keep the mold away.”
I would highly recommend SERVPRO of Union, Towns, Fannin & Gilmer Counties. They are a talented trustworthy group of professionals. I have had to call on their services over the years and they deliver every time. Mr. Walls and his team are a class act.
