A Look at Our Restore vs. Replace Mentality | SERVPRO® of Alamo Heights

When you receive damage to your home, whether it be from fire, water or a storm, there are a lot of emotions involved. After any traumatic event, it is common to cycle through many stages of adjustment as you cope with the harm that has been done to your home and your belongings.

While things can seem quite grim in the moments after you discover damage, when you choose us for restoration, you can count on us to get your home and belongings back to their pre-damaged state. We have developed a mentality that focuses on restoration instead of replacement, which saves you money and allows you to keep the belongings you already love.

Why We Value Restoration Instead of Replacement

We can help you save money on your insurance. While many types of damage done to your home can be claimed with your homeowners insurance, the cost of doing so can be staggering. For example, the average cost of a claim for water damage is over $10,000, which can lead to skyrocketing premiums. By restoring the items we can instead of having our customers claim a full replacement, we can lower this amount so you can save money.

We can protect your sentimental items. With our advanced restoration equipment, we can save items many people thought to be completely ruined. We have restored irreplaceable objects such as documents and photographs, expensive objects such as electronics, and high-value objects such as art for our customers because we understand that some things just can’t be replicated.

We make sure your home feels like home again. Our entire goal with restoration is to make your home feel like it did in its pre-damaged state—which is not possible without all the objects and belongings you have already grown to love. While we know we can’t restore everything every single time, we promise to do our best so you can keep your belongings and continue to use them safely.

If you have damages and are feeling overwhelmed, we are here to help. You can call us as soon as you need to in order to begin the restoration process. Contact us today to learn more.
