This photo again shows the care with which SERVPRO of Southern Trumbull County takes care of its customers. The plastic was put up while the drywall on the ceiling was taken out so as to prevent any dust from exiting this room. Any time drywall is removed, the biggest risk is for drywall dust to get into the air vents. This can cause all sorts of problems down road, so we double check this by also providing a full cleaning of the air ducts after the construction process is complete.

This photo shows the care with which we take care of our customers' belongings. This home had water falling from the ceiling into this basement.
