Pittsboro Can Benefit from SERVPRO's Rapid Water Removal Efforts

Lacking a Shut-Off Valve Can Cause Severe Water Damage in Pittsboro Homes

The older Pittsboro homes may not always have the modern conveniences in areas like plumbing and construction to help keep them protected in case something goes wrong. For example, many older homes got constructed without the installation of a shut off valve inside of the house to prevent flow from the main water line outside through the water meter and into the plumbing network. If something should occur that ruptures or damages any portion of this plumbing line, you then have to wait until workers can arrive to shut off the flow through the meter itself to prevent more water from spilling into your house.

While it might be simple to suggest that you should have a shut-off valve installed in your Pittsboro home to help prevent water loss, many homeowners do not realize this fact until disaster strikes. With no time to react to the situation, the best solution is to contact our SERVPRO rapid response team to get our Green Fleet rolling out to your address. We have the advanced equipment to help dry up the damage and to make minor repairs to the plumbing network as well, which can help to preserve construction elements within your home from requiring replacement. 

The faster that our IICRC certified technicians can arrive at an emergency like this, the easier it becomes to mitigate the damage that has occurred within the structure. Regardless of the severity of the problem, waiting too long for water removal and restoration work can allow for secondary effects like mold growth to begin. This situation of intrusive water requires industry-leading equipment and techniques to reduce the damages. We strive always to restore and not replace whenever possible.

We have truck-mounted pumps in our SERVPRO Green Fleet to rapidly extract water from affected areas of your home. We can combine the efforts of our air movers that force moisture into the air and our dehumidifiers which pull that vapor out of the environment, for fast drying efforts to protect your home. 

Our SERVPRO of Lee & South Chatham Counties rapid response team is available 24/7 for any emergency that your home faces. We have the advanced equipment and highly-trained technicians to make a difference quickly. Give us a call anytime at (919) 533-6776.

Pittsboro is right here.
