24/7 Disaster Restoration & Water Damage Clean Up

SERVPRO of Washington County is Rhode Island's top Disaster Restoration Team. We are available 24/7 in the event of a water or fire damage emergency.

Residential and Commercial water damage can often occur at night when the temperature is normally at its lowest point of the day and heating systems are also set to lower temperatures. In the winter long cold nights means water within the plumbing of a home or commercial building can freeze and expand causing the pipe to burst. When this happens the water pressure behind the frozen part of the pipe will push through and begin to spray water throughout the structure. When this happens you need to be confident that the company you call to repair the damage and to dry out the structure is experienced and able to correctly determine the best course of action. Many times building materials like sheetrock, carpeting and laminate flooring is best to be removed and replaced as keeping these damp materials in the building would encourage mold growth which can happen quickly! In these instances it is always best to call your local SERVPRO. We work hard to understand the best methods and equipment when it comes to fast and efficient drying and structural repair. We also understand how to remediate mold that will often follow shortly after a water damage so you can feel confident that your home or commercial building will be safe. We are also available 24/7/365!
