SERVPRO of East Portland Customer Review
4/20/2020 (Permalink)
“After my water damage threw out my whole house, SERVPRO has showed me a new world I did not know existed. Working promptly and professionally to save my home. I was impressed with how quickly the team jumped in, packed up my belongings, moved me out, demoed my house and kept in touch and informed with what was going on. After witnessing the disaster of my flood all it took was a phone call to SERVPRO to bring hope and calmness to my situation. SERVPRO was at the scene within an hour with machinery and a team ready to go on a Friday evening and worked non stop after hours and weekends. I currently am not back in my home but look forward to seeing Moise and his team move my stuff back in when repairs are done with my house. :)” - Oscar L
