Byron and Josh are very professional and do great work. They were here at the times they said they would be. Very helpful with our basement!
The new owner, Eric Chesser, is very kind and knowledgeable. He has a masters in fire and water restoration and has helped me with day to day issues that have come up in my home.
From start to finish I was impressed with this team. They came out at appointment time to survey the job. They gave a timely estimate. And even though it was a holiday week; they promptly scheduled a time for the job. Once the technicians were her they promptly took care of my problem. I truly recommend this company.
Your workers were very professional and did an outstanding job. They took pride in their work and explained each phase to us along the way. We are extremely pleased with the result. Thank you so much SERVPRO of Lapeer for providing best mold restoration services!
Eric and the crew at SERVPRO of Lapeer were tremendously helpful in restoring our house to normal after a kitchen fire. Eric was available immediately and the crew came on a Saturday to bring the hepa filter. Brienne was very caring. The cleaning crew was diligent and thorough. Eric was professional with designing our needs, and was available whenever we called him. I would certainly recommend SERVPRO of Lapeer to anyone who needs help with restoration.
Jose and Landon were wonderful and showed up quickly and went to work right away. I was relieved and knew my house would be back to normal after water was everywhere. Calling SERVPRO was the best call I made.
Very knowledgeable and helpful!! Dan and Jake came out and were quick, polite, and helpful and answered all my questions! Thanks guys!!
I had water in my basement from my hot water heater and Byron and Matt where both very courteous. They had answered all my questions. Byron set everything up and was very efficient and very mindful of keeping the floors and stairs protected from getting damaged from him setting everything up. Very pleased with their professionalism. They were both very pleasant also.

Basement flooded today and I called SERVPRO for help. Right away they sent Byron and Richie out. They got the basement hooked up with multiple fans and ripped out the padding. They were super helpful in explaining the process and next steps. 5/5 ??. They were awesome.
