When Water, Fire, and Storm Damage Happens in South Boston, We're Ready.

Whether you're looking for restoration, cleaning or construction services in South Boston, we're here to help 24/7.

South Boston is located south of the center of Halifax County, Virginia. On December 8, 1796, the Virginia General Assembly, authorized eight commissioners to establish at Boyd's Ferry on the south side of the Dan River the town of South Boston, named for Boston, Massachusetts. Because this site proved vulnerable to flooding, it was eventually abandoned in favor of a new settlement on the north side. By the 1850s the Richmond and Danville Railroad passed through South Boston, which eventually developed into an important market for brightleaf tobacco. In 1884 it was incorporated as a town; in 1960 it became an independent city; and in 1995 it made history by being the first city in Virginia to revert to town status and rejoined Halifax County.

 Within the town limits Berry Hill Plantation, E.L. Evan's House, Reedy Creek Site, South Boston Historic District, are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Fourqurean House, Glenmary, Glenwood, Tarover, and Seaton are nearby.

South Boston was home to the National Tobacco Festival (a typically three day annual festival held every Fall) from its inception in 1935 to 1941, when it was suspended during World War II. In 1948, the festival was moved to Richmond, Virginia when it outgrew the town. It was held in Richmond until 1984, when it was canceled due to rising production costs and decreased interest. South Boston was the second largest producer of tobacco in the United States until the Great Depression. 

This great historical town is no stranger to local flooding and we at SERVPRO®? are always ready to help with the water damage and restoration that comes from it.

Thank you SERVPRO of Emporia! My husband is suffering from mold exposure in our home and is sick. We have done all the mold testing including ERMI with kits purchased on Amazon. Everything kept coming back with high mold spore counts. My husband is in treatment under the care of a Dr. of functional medicine for 10 months now. Still not getting better. We called SERVPRO to come and do professional testing throughout our home. Julie arrived and thoroughly sampled all rooms and crawlspace with professional equipment. She was very knowledgeable and took time to explain the processes, conditions, and risks. We received the report back within the week. We now know what rooms are contaminated and and an action plan to remediate. Her knowledge , professionalism, and compassion has finally given us some peace of mind that our situation is on the way to being resolved. Can't thank Julie enough. She has been a Godsend! Highly recommend Julie and SERVEPRO of Emporia for anyone.

ServPro of Emporia/South Hill was simply THE BEST !!! This group of professionals came to us, and said YES, in our dire time of need! It was a Saturday, it was raining hard, and we had a big flood going on....They arrived quickly, (I believe it was Shane/Dylan/Danielle) and they were SO Great! They worked very very hard and remediated all the water, set up the fans & blowers, and came back again 2 days later to assist in a complete job! Simply the BEST....Thank you all so much

I had a horrible leak under my house that I was unaware of. For months I was sick and couldn't seem to shake it .One day I noticed something on the side of my wall in my bedroom. The mold had grew all the way up and was coming above the height of my bed. I was disgusted. I called Servpro and they came out super fast. Not only cleaned my room, great price, very professional and found where the mold was growing other places. I'm so thankful. And since they took care of the issue I haven't been sick since. Great job yall. And thanks so much
