Here at SERVPRO of Lewisburg/Selinsgrove we understand that having a water damage in your home or business can be overwhelming. On top of losing your possessions and having to potentially reconstruct your property, the equipment is noisy and can become bothersome. When you call SERVPRO of Lewisburg/Selinsgrove to mitigate your water damage, our professional technicians will place the recommended pieces of equipment in specific areas to dry it out as quickly as possible. It is VERY important to follow our instructions and keep the equipment running and in place at all times. Turning off or moving the air movers and/or dehumidifiers can delay the drying time and can cause further damage to your property such as it need it to be torn out and replaced, and even mold growth. Typically your insurance coverage will only pay for air movers and dehumidifiers for a certain amount of time and our technicians need adjuster approval beyond that time frame in order for your insurance company to pay. Our trained and certified technicians take moisture readings and monitor the equipment daily to ensure the appropriate placing and time for removal. Be sure to talk to our technicians if you have any concerns about anything on our jobs.
