Taking steps to keep things clean

SERVPRO of Lake Charles takes steps to insure that we do not create a second mess. In this example we are doing duct cleaning at a local business and made sure to maintain a level of cleanliness by draping the furniture in visqueen plastic sheeting. The goal is that these plastic sheets act as, sort of, drop clothes for the clients or customers contents. Later, once the primary service has been completed we simply remove the plastic sheeting whereby the remnants of the job will fall to the floor to be swept up and finally mopped.

Whether you experience fire damage, water damage or mold remediation and duct cleaning call SERVPRO of Lake Charles.
