Water Damage Restoration in College Park, NC

Because of Raleigh’s humid subtropical climate—featuring heavy summer rain and the occasional tropical storm—water damage is one of the most common issues in College Park homes. Older bungalows built in the 1940s and ’50s may experience leaks, basement dampness, or plumbing failures, while newer properties can face roof or drainage issues.

SERVPRO’s water damage restoration services include rapid water extraction, structural drying, dehumidification, and full repair. Our crews are trained to manage water intrusions from burst pipes, storm runoff, or appliance failures. For businesses near St. Augustine’s University or New Bern Avenue, we provide commercial water cleanup to minimize downtime and protect inventory.

Fire Damage Restoration

Even in a city setting, fire hazards are real. Older homes with aging wiring and dense residential layouts can experience electrical fires or kitchen accidents, while lightning strikes occasionally affect the area during summer storms.

Our fire damage restoration team provides emergency board-up, soot and smoke removal, odor control, and reconstruction. We coordinate with local fire departments and insurance providers to restore homes quickly. For nearby businesses—cafés, retail stores, or student housing—SERVPRO helps limit operational disruption with efficient cleaning and odor mitigation.

Storm & Wind Damage Restoration

Severe thunderstorms and remnants of coastal hurricanes can bring intense rain and high winds to Raleigh. Roof damage, fallen limbs, and water intrusion are common after such events.

SERVPRO’s storm damage restoration services cover tarping, board-up, debris removal, water extraction, and structural repairs. We respond 24/7 to properties in College Park and surrounding areas like Oakwood and Idlewild, helping residents and business owners recover fast after storms.
