Water is a basic human need for survival. We love water! We need water to drink, we need it to bathe, we use it for cooking and cleaning, we even use it for recreation. We use water daily, all of us. It’s something all living things on earth have in common. We all need water for survival and we think of it, in general, as harmless and quite helpful.

It isn’t until you have a pipe burst, a sewer back up, or a leaky roof that you start to see that water can actually be incredibly hazardous and cause major damage. If you have water damage, it’s important to call a professional like SERVPRO of Springfield for all your water restoration needs. SERVPRO of Springfield has been your local water restoration expert for over 30 years. We have put together a few tips to help guide you in the unfortunate event you have water damage. 

  • If you have water damage, please notify SERVPRO of Springfield as soon as possible. Our staff will help you determine where to go from there. We will help you determine if you need a plumber or any other professional to help stop the source of the water issue. The sooner we can start drying and treating your home, will decrease the possibility of mold growing on the affected surfaces. 
  • Take photos for your insurance company. Taking photos will help your insurance adjuster determine the extent of damage to your structure as well as personal contents.
  • Contact your insurance agent. Be sure to communicate the extent of damage and that you have photos, they may want you to email or text the documentation to them. Be sure to ask any coverage questions you may have as well such as, “What is my deductible?” and “Is there a difference between coverage for my structure and my contents?” Also, it is important to let them know you have hired SERVPRO of Springfield to start the water restoration. SERVPRO of Springfield works directly with your insurance company after your initial call to them to submit the claim. We have a great relationship with insurance companies and adjusters.
