When Major Storms Hit, We Are Backed by Unmatched National Resources

4/22/2021 (Permalink)

When a major storm hits our area, not only is SERVPRO of Fernandina Beach/Jacksonville NE ready to respond, but we are backed by two major support squads and 1700 franchises coordinated by our corporate office that ensure timely mitigation of your storm damage.

Our Resources Are Unmatched

First, there’s SERVPRO’s Disaster Recovery Team (called Storm Team), which mobilizes from across the country, as needed, to support large storm events.  A nationwide system of more than 1700 qualified franchises backs SERVPRO of Fernandina Beach/Jacksonville NE. This network of franchises travels at a moment's notice to support us when needed. Strategically positioned and available 24 hours a day and 365 days a year, the SERVPRO Storm Team Professionals are prepared for the unpredictable. This network proved to be invaluable when Hurricane Irma struck. We were able to reassure homeowners that their damages would be mitigated on a timely basis, which is an assurance many of our competitors simply cannot offer.

 For losses of 50,000 sq. ft. or more, the SERVPRO Commercial Large Loss Division is called in. Our elite large-loss specialists are pre-qualified and strategically positioned throughout the United States to handle any size disaster. Every large loss is supervised by a commercial operations manager who helps ensure seamless communication and timely mitigation. 

For example, when the Wells Fargo Center, which covers an entire block in downtown Jacksonville, was flooded from Hurricane Irma, SERVPRO’s Commercial Large Loss Division was the disaster recovery team that was called in to mitigate damages. The team pumped water out of the basement garage, the basement level of the building and the loading dock area that was flooded. Those levels were filled with mud that had to be extracted and cleaned up.

When storms strike and you need an immediate response, call SERVPRO of Fernandina Beach/Jacksonville NE at 904-729-2401.
