Responding on a Snowy Morning SERVPRO team responding on an early winter morning.

When disaster strikes, timing is critical.  A quick response limits damage and saves money.  In many cleaning and restoration situations, immediate action is needed. Owner John Majeski and his team of highly trained technicians are available in your immediate area 24/7, meaning an immediate response day or night that will help to minimize your damage, cleaning, and restoration costs. Water is particularly invasive, quickly spreading throughout your property and being absorbed into floors, walls, furniture, etc. SERVPRO of Eatontown /Long Branch can arrive quickly and start the restoration almost immediately, whether it be water, fire, or mold.
