Manchester Cleanup and Restoration

Manchester-By-The Sea’s Water and Fire Damage Restoration Experts

This quaint little town Manchester-by-the-Sea (changed recently to not be confused with Manchester, New Hampshire) can be susceptible to the unique problems of living on a New England coastline. SERVPRO’s professional teams are trained to handle the worst of problems such as Fire and Water Damage and care for precious keepsakes and property like it’s their own. Being a small franchise has its perks in such a small area where they can be there for residents quickly because they live in the community. The community thrived primarily as a fishing community for more than 200 years. Beginning in 1845, it started to attract summer residents from the Boston area after poet Richard Dana built a house in the town. Over the next fifty years, development of summer houses along the coastline established the community as Boston society's community of choice for summer residency. The trend continued with designs of houses by architects, such as "Sunny Waters", designed by John Hubbard Sturgis for his older brother, Russell, in 1862. The best known of these "summer cottages" was Kragsyde, built on Smith's Point in 1883. 

Manchester-by-the-Sea’s seashore community situated on the Atlantic Ocean encompassing approximately 8 square miles with approximately 12.8 miles of tidal shoreline providing beaches, a perfect yachting haven, and commercial fishing. One mile from the town center is Singing Beach, so named because the sand comprising the beach squeaks when walked upon. The sand is an iridescent color when the sun sets. This beach is quite popular during summer months in particular, because it is easily accessible from Boston by a one-half-mile (800 m) walk from the MBTA train station. Also located on this historic beach is the famous tourist attraction "Eaglehead", a rock composite that is the focal point of rock climbing and other recreation activities. When the intense winter storms and other inconvenient events happen, SERVPRO is there for them to help with their Water and Fire Damage Restoration needs.
