Our Production Technicians getting ready for departure to Wilmington, NC

Disasters can strike at any moment, especially when you least expect it.  These disasters can come in the form of a tornado, tropical storm, or a hurricane.  And when these disasters strike, SERVPRO is ready.  Storm teams become activated and franchises from all over the country work as a team to help local franchises service the areas affected from the storm. 

SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale has been apart of several storms over the past 3 years.  Our first storm event was in Baton Rouge, LA.  While there, were able to help many families begin the process to get back to preloss condition.  Our team extracted water, removed debris, and set drying equipment and monitored the progress.  After Baton Rouge, we traveled to Kansas City to help with flood damaged homes and businesses.  We then traveled to Houston, TX in the summer of 2017 after Hurricane Harvey wreaked havoc on the city.  We were able to help around 25 families with in 4 weeks.  Our most recent event to travel to was Wilmington, NC after Hurricane Florence struck the coast.  Our teams were there for almost a month and helped close to 20 homeowners. 

During storms we see many different situations and our technicians get valuable experience that we use in our every day jobs.  We strive to help communities afar and in our own backyard.  When disaster strikes, SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale is faster to any size disaster!
