Second time we’ve used Servpro and same great experience. They make a bad situation as easy as possible. Hoping we don’t have to use them again, but if we find ourselves in need, they’ll be our first call.

Having a pipe burst was definitely not in my plans and working with an insurance company can be very frustrating. Josh and his team at Servpro went above and beyond to help me navigate this difficult process. I appreciate their thorough and efficient responses, work and follow up. I hope this never happens to anyone…

Not that you ever want emergency water mitigation in the middle of the night, but if you do have the need, Jason Coffman with Serv Pro is the best. He was incredibly responsive and explained the entire process so clearly. He took the time to check in with me daily to see if I had questions and made himself available…

How we grade

Satisfaction (54%) — Recency-weighted star average (2-year half-life), shrunk toward the category mean by review volume; the company’s own lifetime average as the prior; absolute: 4.0★ = 0, 5★ = 100.

Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.

Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.

Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.

Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.

Replies to reviews (7%) — How often the owner publicly replies to reviews under 5★ (1–4★). Needs 3+ such reviews, otherwise not counted; 65% absolute (80%+ replied = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
