Don't let a leaking appliance cause major water damage to your Shreveport home--contact SERVPRO. "Like it never even happened."

Have You Checked Your Appliances in Your Shreveport Home Lately?

With all the bodies of water that sit around Shreveport, like the Red River, it is no wonder that many homes are battling the possibility of flooding throughout the rainiest times of the year. Even with this continual threat, homeowners are surprised by internal threats they didn't see coming. An excellent example of this would be the breakdown of a dishwasher or washing machine. Appliances can assuredly make your life a little bit easier, but as they are machines, there is only a finite amount of time that they function correctly. Regular servicing of these appliances can secure weakened connections and drain hoses.

When a dishwasher fails, high volumes of water could end up in the affected areas and require water removal services for your Shreveport residence. Our experienced SERVPRO professionals respond quickly; We're Faster To Any Size Disaster. We understand that the longer water soaks into construction materials, the more irreparable damage occurs.

Extraction begins shortly after an inspection which assists in selecting the various pumps and wet vacs available. Larger pools of water damage could require the use of truck-mounted pumps from our SERVPRO Green Fleet. We can then focus on drying the affected rooms using:

• air movers
• axial fans
• drying mats
• heaters

Our customers receive a final walkthrough to ensure complete satisfaction has been achieved. We can work with insurance adjusters throughout the remediation service to simplify the claims paperwork and remain within a budget.

When you face damage that requires water removal, trust our SERVPRO of South Shreveport professionals to do it quickly and to do it right. Give us a call today at (318) 865-4655.
