As Mother Nature continues to bring Northeast PA buckets of rain, SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge has been busy cleaning up sewer and drain backups. We are currently working on three (3) residences in Duryea, Plains and West Pittston where the increased water has caused the sewerage system to backup and overflow with the residence. Unfortunately with the age of the sewerage system in the Lackawanna/Luzerne County region this is not an uncommon phenomena. Understandably, this brings serious issues to the homeowner. Sewer water has the potential to cause health issues - not to mention the odor that accompanies it. For these reasons a professional cleanup company like SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge is highly recommended. We posess the specialized training and equipment necessary to make the structure safe for habitation. Pictured are some of the equipment required always putting the safety of everyone involved first and foremost. SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge is located in Taylor and as an emergency services company we respond 24 hours a day to any emergency. If your home or business has suffered a sewerage backup call the Scranton area's leader in specialty cleaning at (570) 235-1646 so that we can help restore your property to preloss condition.
