Why Choose ServiceMaster of Savannah?

How long will it take my property to dry?

Drying time is determined by a combination of factors, including the location, duration, and source of water; the types of building materials; weather conditions; and how quickly emergency services arrive. Through consistent monitoring and evaluation of the drying process, ServiceMaster of Savannah can determine when the drying is complete. Your carpet may feel dry to the touch, but padding and subfloors may still be wet underneath. While there are no rules for how long it will take for your property to dry, ServiceMaster of Savannah can tell you it may take between three and five days or more, depending on the conditions.

How do I know when my property is completely dry?

Proper testing with ServiceMaster of Savannah’s specialized equipment is the correct way to determine if things are completely dry. Touch alone may be a false indicator.

Do I need to move out of my property during this process?

If you file an insurance claim, you may receive guidance from your insurance representative. However, this is a decision you must reach on your own. There are several factors to consider. Safety is paramount. ServiceMaster of Savannah’s equipment is as childproof as possible, but we require your supervision to make sure no children play with it. Air movers and dehumidifiers will create noise and make your property drafty for a few days. It is important that the equipment remains on, so if the noise is disruptive to you, you might want to consider an alternate place to stay.

Who is responsible for paying for the service?

Ultimately, you, the property owner, are responsible for payment. As the property owner, you will need to sign a form authorizing the work and payment. If this is an insurance claim, ServiceMaster of Savannah generally collects only the deductible amount and bills the balance to your insurance provider as a service to you. If you have a large loss, your mortgage company may be included as a payee on the payment from your insurance company, and you may need to obtain a signature from them as well. If your claim is not covered or you decide not to file a claim, you will be expected to pay in full at the time of ServiceMaster of Savannah’s service.

We help you get clean and stay that way, at work and at home.

What our customers say about us

Very professional and very through and customer friendly. Excellent service and they were very knowledgeable about the restoration work needed. The tech (WILL) did a great job in drying out the walls and floor that were damaged by a water leak from a hot water heater. The owner (DIEDRA) showed up to help and oversee the packing of furniture into a container and then came back 8 months later to unpack and place the furniture back in the house. Outstanding service from everyone involved in the operation, including the office coordinator (SELENA). Would very highly recommend this company for any restoration involving fire,water, or smoke damage including carpet cleaning. Thanks guys for a job well done 😄👍

Ted Workman

What we liked most was the professionalism and the courteousness of everyone involved. Selena really made us, particularly me, feel like Service Masters really cared about what was going on. I really called her a lot (in retrospect, probably too much). But she never made me feel like I was a burden. She was actually my lifeline. The gentlemen who put down the fans (I did not get their names) were equally compassionate and professional. They checked the fans, and checked the fans, and … checked the fans. They were really thorough and explained every step to us as to what they were doing and why. Then you have the lady and gentleman (again, I did not get their names) who removed furniture and carpet. Wow!! Just watching them was amazing. They cleared everything out in no time and they, too, were professional and courteous. They also explained what they were doing and why. Service Masters has a PHENOMENAL team working for them. I just can’t brag on them enough. THANK YOU ALL!!

Cori Alayna

Joey and Chris are both highly competent, friendly and helpful–a rare combination these days. They both did the work, explained the processes and were on time. It was a pleasure having these two pros help us. A third technician was here one of the days-I believe his name was Bill. He, like the other two, really knew his stuff and he did a great job with the downstairs ceilings. Thanks to a great team!
