Heavy Rains Threaten Local Office Operations
Heavy storms caused flooding in this Norcross business. They called SERVPRO of Norcross and we were able to get out within the hour to begin removing the unwanted water and start drying the carpet and other flooring.
Flooding and water damage is very invasive. Water quickly spreads throughout your home and gets absorbed into floors, walls, furniture, and more. SERVPRO of Norcross arrives quickly and starts the water extraction process almost immediately. This immediate response helps to minimize the damage and the cleaning and restoration costs.
