Highly Trained Restoration Specialists

If you are in the situation where you are having to deal with a fire or a water damage event, the team you hire matters. 

The right restoration team will properly assess and address your damage, leaving your property "Like it never even happened." The wrong restoration team will not. They will create headaches, do half-hearted work, and leave you miserable. 

But, what's the difference between the two? Perhaps professionalism. 

At SERVPRO of Seattle Northwest our techs are highly trained. Our technicians pursue training through in-house mentoring as well as at our technical training academy located at the SERVPRO corporate offices. Our technicians are certified by the IICRC in a variety of restoration topics including Water Damage Restoration, Applied Structural Drying, Fire and Smoke Restoration and Commercial Drying.
