Upton Cleanup and Restoration

Upton, Wyoming is a small town in the Black Hills National Forrest.  Much of the town’s early history has been lost due to the town’s local newspaper burning down in 1926 and most of what we know is from local oral history.  It was first known as Iron Town or Iron City, being named after iron creek where the settlement first sprang up on the east side of the creek as an early supply town for cowboys, ranchers, and newly arrived homesteaders.  The town was originally named Merino after the sheep breed due to the railroad coming into the town and the sheep trade flourished.  The town’s name was changed to Upton in 1901 after a railroad surveyor after some difficulty getting mail delivered due to a town named Merino in Colorado.

Upton is known for short warm summers and long freezing, snowy and windy winters.  The heavy amounts of snow in the winter and severe storms can cause damage to homes and businesses which creates water damage from snow melting, heavy saturation, and pipe breaks.  Luckily, they have SERVPRO® here to help 24/7 take care of water damage restoration.

The extreme winds and lightning coupled with dry summers can also cause damage to homes and businesses and can create wildfires that sweep through ranches and the forest, that is why SERVPRO is always Here to Help® with fire damage restoration.  Most of our workers were born and raised in Wyoming. We train our workers with the best practices in mind and with the best equipment at hand to take care of water damage restoration and fire damage restoration.
