Why Hire SERVPRO for Storm Damage Restoration?

SERVPRO of Blackwood/Gloucester Township has the expertise and training to mitigate storm damage to your residential or commercial property. Our Storm Damage Restoration Technicians are highly trained in water removal, structural drying, mold remediation, odor control, and more. We also have equipment that can help us work much faster than traditional restoration crews so we can minimize disruption to you and your family.

SERVPRO Can Better Assess the Damage

When a storm rolls through, you may not know if your property sustained any damage. If debris is blocking roads or knocking out power in the area, it can be difficult to get someone over right away for an assessment.

With SERVPRO on the job however, we have equipment that allows us to pinpoint exactly where water and moisture are coming from so they can begin drying the structure faster. This helps minimize potential mold growth as well as structural issues which could become worse if left untreated too long.

Fast Emergency Response and 24/365 Services with Years of Success

SERVPRO of Blackwood/Gloucester Township has been helping its clients with their restoration needs for many years now! We're locally owned and operated so our customers always come first. We also understand that when disaster strikes, you need someone to act fast and restore your home or business as quickly as possible. We're available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year so we can be there for whatever restoration needs arise!

We Have a Highly Trained Staff of Technicians

Our Storm Damage Restoration Technicians are highly trained in water removal, structural drying, mold remediation, odor control and more. We continue our education with regular seminars on the latest techniques and equipment involved in storm damage restoration work so we stay current on industry best practices.

Our company is fully insured which means you don't have to worry about us leaving any gaps in coverage if an unexpected event occurs during the course of our services - like fire from damaged electrical wiring or injuries sustained while working on the property. Our technicians are certified which ensures that our company is meeting diversity hiring goals and providing equal opportunities to all their employees.

SERVPRO Can Also Help You with Preventing All Types of Damages during Future Storms

We know what areas are most vulnerable during a storm and what part of your property can get hit by the most damage. That's why we can work with your insurance company to better prepare you for the next storm that comes through.

Our technicians will visit your property during a calm time before any bad weather hits and assess what needs to be done in order to ensure minimal damage if another large storm should come along. We'll make sure gutters are clear, rain plans are working properly, sump pumps are free of debris or blocked by soil so they can do their job as intended when it counts most!

SERVPRO = TEAMWORK!

Damage to a kitchen ceiling due to a burst pipe. Water damaged kitchen ceiling in Texas, from a burst pipe.

Did you know that each SERVPRO is individually owned and operated? There are over 2,000 franchises nationwide, many in or around your town!

What’s great about having so many franchises, is that whenever there is a larger than normal job, or a major storm hits, we all band together to help out the affected community.

In February 2021, a major winter storm moved through the state of Texas and wreaked havoc on the citizens of the Lonestar state. This storm brought not only snow, sleet, and freezing rain to Southeast Texas, but also extremely cold temperatures that lasted for several days. This was one of the most impactful winter events in recent history that brought multiple road closures, power outages, loss of heat, broken pipes, and other societal impacts for the region. Our crew assembled, packed up the vans and drove down to assist other SERVPROs with the clean-up. We worked side by side with our SERVPRO family and didn’t leave until the job was done! This is not the first (or last!) time SERVPRO will travel to help out communities in need.

We are proud to be a part of the SERVPRO family and we will always be “Faster to any size disaster”!

Let Us Introduce You to Gloucester Twp!

Our mural the community painted on our outside wall! Beautiful mural the community painted on our wall showing all that is wonderful about Glendora/Gloucester Twp!

We here at SERVPRO Blackwood/Gloucester TWP call Glendora, NJ home. Community is everything to us and we love our neighbors! Just in our backyard, we have a fun mural that was painted on one of our walls by our friends in the neighborhood! We also have a large, grassy lot that the mural overlooks where we have hosted fun events for everyone. We wanted to share some cool facts about Glendora/Gloucester Twp, to honor our friends and neighbors.

Gloucester township was named after the cathedral town of Gloucester on the banks of the Severn in England. Gloucester Twp is home to one of 175 similar pre-Revolutionary War buildings in the U.S., The Gabreil Daveis Tavern (also known as the Hillman Hospital House). This tavern was built in 1756 near the Big Timber Creek and housed boatmen who used the creek to ship goods to Philadelphia. It was designated a hospital by George Washington during the Revolutionary War. If you visit the tavern, you can walk on the same floorboards and look out the same glass windows as Revolutionary soldiers! This historical site is even depicted on our mural!

Here is a list of well-known people that hail from Gloucester Twp:

Gloucester Twp is home to numerous places worthy of a visit! We have a ton of fun parks, as well as historical ones, many wineries, an outlet shopping center, lots of u-pick farms, historical tours and so much more! When you come visit, take a drive down Black Horse Pike and check out our awesome mural, as well as others our community has painted around town. You’ll see why it’s known as “A great place to live, work and play”!

SERVPRO franchises employ a multitude of technicians trained in various areas within IICRC guidelines.

What is the IICRC?

The IICRC is the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification, a non-profit organization for the Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Industries. The IICRC was founded in 1972 by Ed York. The mission was, and still is, to establish and advance globally recognized standards, credentials, and certifications for the inspection, cleaning, and restoration industries. Since starting in 1972, the IICRC has evolved into a global organization with more than 49,000 active Certified Technicians and more than 6,500 Certified Firms around the world.

The IICRC Standards serve to develop common, industry-accepted language and terminology that enables us to more universally discuss concepts and procedures regarding cleaning, inspection, and restoration. The IICRC is an American National Standards Institute (ANSI) member and accredited standards developer. ANSI coordinates standards, conformity assessment, and related activities in the United States of America. ANSI is responsible for overseeing the development of national consensus standards and verifying that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standard’s developer. An American National Standard (ANS) is a Voluntary Consensus Standard, and unless mandated by law, compliance is voluntary. However, some have been adopted as code or regulation by local, state, or federal authorities.

Replace vs Restore

7/29/2020 (Permalink)

At SERVPRO® of Blackwood/Gloucester Twp., our goal on every water, fire, or mold damage job is to save more and replace less. When assessing damage in a home or business, our team will determine what can be salvaged or cleaned, such as contents, furniture, & structural materials. Our team will then perform pre-testing to determine what the best method of cleaning will be.  

The major advantage to restore vs. replace is cost. In almost any situation, restore saves a tremendous amount of money compared to replacement.  One area where we can generate huge savings in a water loss situation is drying of hardwood floors instead of replacing them. Even after incurring the cost of air movers, dehumidifiers and even specialize equipment usually there is a 45%-75% cost savings over replacement. Another common example would be the drying of carpet and/or drywall.  Again using air movers and dehumidifiers and following the science of drying we can often save 75%-90% over replacement cost. You can imagine how quickly these savings add up.

Another advantage of restore versus replace is time savings and business interruption savings. Drying a structure usually takes an average of three to five days. After our drying is completed, your customer should be back in their house or business right away. Back, as we like to say, “Like it never even happened”. If you look at the alternative which is replace, your customer will have to wait weeks or even months to get back into their home or business while construction is going on.  This leads to expensive hotel bills for residential customers or catastrophic business interruption costs for commercial customers. Either way you are talking a great deal of money, time and inconvenience!

The Importance of Duct Cleaning

7/29/2020 (Permalink)

Pollutants like dust, pet hair and mold spores can travel throughout your home or business through your air duct system hindering the quality of the air you breathe. While dirty ducts don’t necessarily mean unhealthy air in your home, school or workplace, they may be contributing to larger health issues or harboring contaminants that could cause serious problems for people with respiratory health conditions, autoimmune disorders or some environmental allergies.

SERVPRO® of Blackwood/Gloucester Township uses a portable system of whips and brushes to thoroughly clean and deodorize your ducts. We place the HVAC system under negative air pressure to ensure that all the pollutants are removed and captured through a hepa filter. A clean duct system improves the indoor air quality and reduces allergens and odors from spreading through your home or business. 

The benefits of servicing your HVAC unit include:

• Helps to restore peak energy efficiency.
• May help to eliminate offensive odors.
• Helps reduce the potential for mold growth.

Why worry when we can worry for you?

Blackwood,NJ Sewer Pipe Backup

8/20/2019 (Permalink)

Call SERVPRO of Blackwood/Gloucester Township for emergency sewage cleanup.

Quick Response is the key.

One of the worst things you can experience as a homeowner is a sewer backup. Sewer backups occur when an obstruction or damage prevents wastewater from flowing through your lateral sanitary sewer line – the main sewer line that connects your home to the municipal sanitary sewers.

This Blackwood homeowner was awakened in the early morning hours to a sewage backup. Sewage and water was spewing everywhere. SERVPRO of Blackwood/Gloucester Township was called and quickly responded to the scene. Sewage water is considered Category 3, known as "black water" and is grossly unsanitary. This water contains unsanitary agents, harmful bacteria and fungi. Everything the water touches must be thrown away. Our SERVPRO Professionals extracted the water and gutted the three rooms that were affected. Drying equipment was placed to dry the affected areas. The drying process was monitored daily to ensure proper drying. The homeowner was pleased with our quick response and professional work.

If you have a sewage backup you can depend on SERVPRO of Blackwood/Gloucester Township to respond quickly 24/7. Call us at 856-227-7800. We are here to help make it “Like it never even happened."

Restore vs. Replace

8/24/2018 (Permalink)

When disaster strikes, SERVPRO® works to restore vs. replace.

At SERVPRO® of Blackwood/Gloucester Twp., our goal on every water, fire, or mold damage job is to save more and replace less. When assessing damage in a home or business, our team will determine what can be salvaged or cleaned, such as contents, furniture, & structural materials. Our team will then perform pre-testing to determine what the best method of cleaning will be.  

The major advantage to restore vs. replace is cost. In almost any situation, restore saves a tremendous amount of money compared to replacement.  One area where we can generate huge savings in a water loss situation is drying of hardwood floors instead of replacing them. Even after incurring the cost of air movers, dehumidifiers and even specialize equipment usually there is a 45%-75% cost savings over replacement. Another common example would be the drying of carpet and/or drywall.  Again using air movers and dehumidifiers and following the science of drying we can often save 75%-90% over replacement cost. You can imagine how quickly these savings add up.

Another advantage of restore versus replace is time savings and business interruption savings. Drying a structure usually takes an average of three to five days. After our drying is completed, your customer should be back in their house or business right away. Back, as we like to say, “Like it never even happened”. If you look at the alternative which is replace, your customer will have to wait weeks or even months to get back into their home or business while construction is going on.  This leads to expensive hotel bills for residential customers or catastrophic business interruption costs for commercial customers. Either way you are talking a great deal of money, time and inconvenience!

For these reasons we at SERVPRO® of Blackwood/Gloucester Twp. look to restore whenever we can and whenever it makes sense.  We accomplish this by not only using our extensive training, knowledge and resources but also by responding immediately so that the impact of the water or fire damage is reduced. We also help you mitigate your damages before they even happen with our Emergency Ready Profile (ERP).  This program prepares you for the loss before it even occurs. If you or your customers do not have an ERP yet, you need one! Set up an appointment right away.         It’s free!
