After the water or fire has damaged your homes structure and all your belongings; who do you call? The first person maybe your insurance agent. They will then call or refer you to a local restoration company. SERVPRO of West Akron is a preferred mitigation and restoration vendor for most major insurance companies. We are trained and certified to determine if something should be restored before replacing saving you time and money.  The insurance and restoration industry has performed multiple studies that conclude restoring has many advantages over replacing items.  One area of savings in a water loss is the drying of hardwood floors, carpet and drywall instead of replacing them.  Even the cost of air movers, dehumidifiers and other specialized equipment and following the science of drying that SERVPRO uses saves someone 50%-75% over the replacement cost.  You can imagine how quickly these savings add up. As a preferred mitigation vendor, we are charged with a duty to restore whenever possible.
