Faster to any size disaster Ready for anything

The great thing about owning a home is that it’s your space, a spot to literally call home. It’s your building to do with what you want, your yard to tend and keep, and by golly, they’re your walls to nail in whatever you please.

The other side of that coin is that when something bad happens, it’s your problem. And millions of homeowners like yourself turn to SERVPRO to help them overcome issues of all kinds, stemming from damage from storms, fires and more.

When you need help in any of these areas (and more), you can count on SERVPRO to see you through the recovery process from start to finish.

Water damage recovery. Flooding, sewage backup and burst pipes can all cause serious water issues that make a mess of your home. When it happens to you, we’ll be there to see you through the cleanup and restoration of your flooring, walls and personal items.

Fire damage recovery. Home fires happen at a rampant pace of more than twice a minute, and when they do, homeowners all over the country rely on SERVPRO to restore damaged homes and remove soot and odors.

Mold removal. Mold can’t be allowed to stay in your home. It’s not only unsightly—it actually threatens your home’s structure. But removing it yourself can be equally dangerous, and it can spread it further into your house. Let the pros in green take care of it.

Storm recovery. When hurricanes roll through or heavy thunderstorms cause trouble, we’ve got Tallahassee residents covered. From minor damage to full restoration, we do it all.

Commercial needs. Tallahassee businesses need love, too—and we provide them with expert care when it comes to all these needs, and then some. We can even set up a custom cleaning regimen and a disaster recovery plan for local business.

General cleaning. Maybe your home isn’t damaged, but it could use a deep-cleaning—trust us when we say nobody does it like SERVPRO. You won’t believe your carpet, drapes and other surfaces when we get done.

Specialty cleaning. We help first responders clean up crime scenes and vandalism incidents, we restore damaged documents, and so much more. If it can get dirty, sour or dilapidated, we can make it look like new again.

Construction. Sometimes a storm or fire takes a serious bite out of your building, and even then, SERVPRO can be your one-call solution. From framing to repainting, we handle it all.

Add 24-hour service and an easy insurance process to all this, and the picture becomes clear—when you need cleanup and recovery of any kind, you can trust SERVPRO to get the job done.

Make Sure You're Choosing the Right Service Company - SERVPRO of Tallahassee

Sometimes the most difficult decisions to make are ones that require both speed and a lot of trust. This is the case when a natural disaster or accident does damage to your home that requires restoration.

When a situation arises, you will need to execute some quick but critical thinking as you consider the needs of your home and decide what restoration company to reach out to.

If it’s something you’ve never considered before, it may be helpful to have some idea what to look out for. Here are three questions that any respectable service company should be able to answer to your satisfaction.

Are They Legit?

It’s an unfortunate truth, but it happens— scammers and con artists come out of the woodwork to take advantage of home and business owners whose property has been damaged. These are typified by unlicensed individuals who come in from out of town with no local reputation or client base, making claims of incredibly cheap work that requires a deposit, which they can then retain while your work goes undone or done very poorly.

Fortunately, when you contact SERVPRO, you’re getting in contact with one of the most reputable teams in the industry, with a long history of satisfying the needs of homeowners. And when you partner with the same company the PGA Tour trusts for its cleanup and recovery efforts, you know you’re getting the highest quality work and service.

Will They Be There When I Need Help?

There are 365 days in a year, and we’re ready on every single one of them. When an emergency hits your home, you don’t have time to wait.

That’s why when you click a link on our website or pick up the phone, we’re geared up and ready on the other side—because we can’t wait to help you, and you don’t have time to wait at all.

Where’s a Fleet When You Need One?

SERVPRO of Tallahassee is a local, neighborhood franchise, led and operated by experts in the local community—this means you get fast, knowledgeable service from folks who know the specific needs of Tallahassee homeowners.

But when hurricanes and major events call for additional help and technicians, we call on the backup—the nationwide network of tools, technicians and resources that make up the full SERVPRO fleet. Big jobs don’t intimidate us, and your needs never get pushed aside.
