Sometimes storm damage is subtle

Ceiling leak leads to wet and dirty clothing

Storm damage isn't always uprooted trees and hail damaged vehicles.

Sometimes, the damage isn't noticeable until another rain comes along and reveals damages shingles and water damaged ceilings.

For this customer, it wasn't noticed until the ceiling began leaking and making a mess of his wife's clothing, something she was not happy about!

Our SERVPRO of Lawton technicians inspected the area, and cut a hole in the sheet rock to inspect the area above.

Sure enough, small pinholes of daylight showed damaged shingles, and the recent rains were heavy enough to cause the interior damage.

We provided our estimate and documentation to the insurance agent, who met with the adjuster and agreed to the restoration protocol we outlined.

While the job was a bit messy, the customer was happy that it was completed quickly and her clothes were once again safely tucked away in the closet.
