Sam and Martin were able to show up ahead of schedule to assess and get my home initiated on drying out. They were able to work with the finished parts of my basement for drying out the whole area after my sump pump failed, and water had overflown on my drainage system.

Our finished basement and kitchen were flooded due to a pipe bursting in the middle of the night. Waking up to this disaster was horrific. I called ServPro and within an hour Tyler and Aaron were at my house. Their knowledge, professionalism and thoroughness was beyond excellent. From start to finish, including dealing with our insurance company, their work was superb and I would recommend ServPro to anyone who needs a cleanup restoration small or large. Their service was outstanding in every aspect.

Response from the owner · a year ago

Ms Gotschall, Thank you for taking the time out to let us know how happy you were with our services. We strive to be professional and thorough with all our clients. So delighted you were happy with Tyler and Aaron, they are among our favorites. Thank you again for choosing SERVPRO of Newark!

Had a pipe break in the basement. Caused some damage so my insurance reached out to ServPro Newark. They came right away, cleaned up the water, set up blowers to dry everything and stayed on top of the work. Very professional and efficient. Kept me advised during the entire process.
