Why SERVPRO?

Why SERVPRO of Hanover, Goochland & Caroline?  

The main reason to call SERVPRO of Hanover, Goochland  & Caroline is quick response times that help limit the extent of the damages.

This home sustained a substantial water loss during the winter months when temperature went below 10 degrees.  This home had plumbing roughed in by their builder and the homeowner's were going to finish the 3rd floor at a later date on their own.

Unfortunately, the plumbing was not insulated well enough to protect the plumbing fitting from busting in those cold and windy conditions.  We see this type of water loss a lot when the temperatures are so low for several days in a row.

The resulting damages were water damage to the half of 2nd level of the home and 1/4 of the main level of the home.  Since we were able to arrive on site so quickly this minimized the spreading out of the damages.
