Do You Think You Have a Water or Mold Issue?
A property inspection by SERVPRO of Winter Park is a comprehensive check on commercial and residential properties to look for signs of water, fire, and mold damage or potential issues that may lead to these damages. It typically takes about 90 minutes to complete but the duration may vary based on the size of the facility. The inspection can either offer peace of mind that damage was not found or help to get the process started by preventing additional damage. The restoration specialist conducting your property inspection will be experienced in water, mold, and fire damage and will share their knowledge as well as outline the process for you should you need additional assistance with existing damages.
By this point, you may be thinking this all sounds great but there is always a catch, isn’t there?
So What’s the Catch?
Our franchise is fully transparent with our service charges and we can honestly say there is no catch!
As a restoration business, a free inspection helps us to prospect potential work when we find damages that would otherwise go unnoticed until they worsened. It is our foot in the door for new clients and job sites. We also place immense value on building trust with commercial property managers and becoming their preferred vendors based on the work we’ve done for them. If we inspect a commercial property and don’t find damages or the property owner is reluctant to address the issues found, the inspection remains free of charge. We make no money and the property owner is left knowing the damages and conditions of their building or facility.
If our inspector finds damages and the property owner enlists our help as a restoration business to address and remedy the situation, we then charge for the actual work that is done. Even in these cases, the majority of our bills get covered by insurance and we work with adjusters directly to ensure a smooth process.
