Museum flood in St. Joseph, MI

WATER LINES BREAK WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT.

Source: Drinking fountain supply line.  50 PSI output 1,000 gallons of cat 1 water overnight.  Water affected 3,800 sq. ft. of carpet, walls, baseboard, contents.  Luckily this happened on the basement level of a historic building.  No contents were lost, just some drywall and baseboard that needed to be replaced.  It did require a 5 day dry out.  Fortunately, we were able to work around administrative staff and keep them operational.  This was a high visibility job downtown St. Joseph.  Museum staff were thrilled with the response, trained workers made it “Like it never even happened.”

What to Expect

When you call, we will ask several questions regarding your water damage emergency. These questions will help us determine what equipment and resources to bring, including how many trained SERVPRO Professionals may be needed. 

Our SERVPRO Representative will ask several questions: 

• Your name and contact information
• Your insurance information (if applicable)
• The street address of the water-damaged business
• When did the flooding or water damage occur?
• What caused the water damage (if known)?
• Is there electricity available (on-site)? 

Faster To Any Size Disaster

Flooding and water damage is very invasive. Water quickly spreads  and gets absorbed into floors, walls, furniture, and more.  SERVPRO of Berrien County arrives quickly and starts the water extraction process almost immediately. This immediate response helps to minimize the damage and the cleaning and restoration costs.
