With a population of 2,600 Avoca, PA is home to The Wilkes-Barre Scranton International Airport. It is the fifth largest airport in Pennsylvania by passenger count and calls itself "your gateway to NEPA and the Pocono Mountains." The community was incorporated as a borough in 1871. Its original name was “Pleasant Valley.” However, in 1887, it changed its name to “Avoca,” because the name "Pleasant Valley" was already used elsewhere in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. It was named after Avoca, County Wicklow, in Ireland.
Emergency Restoration Services in Avoca, PA
Mill Creek in Avoca is well known for ice jams in the winter and flooding in the summer, which in turn can lead to water damage to surrounding properties. Ice jams are caused by melting snow and ice in the springtime. Warm temperatures and spring rains cause snow and ice to melt very rapidly. All this extra water causes frozen rivers and streams to swell up, and the layer of ice on top of the river begins to break up.
Whether a residential or commercial property is dealing with water in their structure from the nearby creek from Summer or Winter storms, SERVPRO is here to help. We live and work in this community too; we might even be neighbors. As a locally owned and operated business, we are close by and ready to respond to your cleaning or restoration needs.
