On behalf of Jeremy Lamb and the members of CIRPP, we would like to thank you and your staff for your generosity in sponsoring and hosting last night's CIRPP After Hours event. The food and prizes were fabulous! Your staff was wonderful to interact with (and Molly too). Please accept our heartfelt thanks! We hope you gain business from our members and the people they recommend your business to (we don't wish for any natural disasters, though)!
GREAT group to work with, including the subcontractors.
I highly recommend SERVPRO. You won't find a better more qualified team of professionals anywhere that will take better care of you in the event of a fire or water loss. They show up, treat you with respect and kindness and get the job done. So, if the unexpected happens to you...give them a call!
No recommendation on improvements. SERVPRO did a great job!

Kisaca deserves a raise. She is one of the Best Workers I have ever witnessed, I could not have made it through this disaster without her! Kisaca was the BEST!
I truly appreciate Taylor's assistance. He had a great personality and put the homeowner at ease. He was very reassuring that SERVPRO will take care of everything and not to worry. The homeowner was going on vacation and really needed to have someone she could trust to finish this out, and Taylor did just that. Thank You very much.
Very pleased with everyone and their hard work. Thank You SERVPRO!
