SERVPRO helps school recover from weather-related disaster

SERVPRO of Bloomington responded quickly to dry this newly installed hardwood court at a local school.

In beautiful Southern Indiana, we like to use the saying, "If you don't like the weather today, just wait until tomorrow ... it'll change."

We live in an area of the United States, where we get the pleasure of experiencing all four seasons. From the changing leaves in October to the chance of snow and freezing temperatures in January, the beauty of nature and its seasons is abundant. But it can also be destructive.

When Mother Nature dumped 3.5 inches of rain on our area in a very short time frame, SERVPRO of Bloomington was ready to respond when stormwater overflowed drains at a local school and flooded parts of two buildings, including a wooden gym floor that had been laid within the past year. The school's maintenance crews acted fast, extracting standing water, but called SERVPRO of Bloomington in to dry out the areas.

Our team set equipment after hours, running it over the weekend. SERVPRO of Bloomington was able to dry out all affected areas, quickly and professionally. As the assistant superintendent noted, "I was impressed with their work ethic, communication, and collaboration. They were very professional and hard-working. We appreciate SERVPRO being able to get in quickly and help us with our water issue.

When weather creates a problem, SERVPRO of Bloomington has the manpower and equipment to tackle any-size disaster with professionalism and expertise.
