The carpet looks dry - we do not need you

7/21/2019 (Permalink)

There are times that you may not need our services if it is a small amount of water damage. SERVPRO® of Southwest Lubbock will never charge a home owner or business owner for a service that we do not believe they need. 

On the flip side, a lot of times a homeowner or business owner may not realize how much they really need SERVPRO®'s services. 

A lot of times before walking on a carpet or touching a wall - it may look dry. In a lot of situations this is not the case. SERVPRO®'s normal drying time with our commercial size drying equipment is 3 to 5 days. Unfortunately, a small fan or dehumidifier may not be enough. 

As you can see in the photo there was quite a bit of water trapped in the pad underneath this carpet. The business owner thought the water did not reach this room. 

If you ever have a situation that you are not sure if you need us, we always are just a call away. We can walk you through it or come and provide you a free estimate. We are always here to help!
