Water Damage
Water damage restoration and mitigation, including rapid extraction, drying, moisture control, and structural repair to limit further damage and support a safe recovery.
Marshall properties take a beating from every season. Spring snowmelt pushes the Redwood River up toward its banks and the diversion channel, and when the water table rises, basements across town take on water through floors and failed sump pumps. Subzero January nights freeze and split pipes in older homes near downtown, ice dams back water under shingles, and summer storms rolling across the Lyon County prairie bring hail, wind and sudden downpours. ServiceMaster Restoration Services - Marshall is the local team you can call when that damage happens. We provide property restoration for homeowners, landlords and business owners, including water damage cleanup, fire and smoke damage restoration, mold remediation and odor removal. Whether the call comes from a family home with a finished basement, a rental near Southwest Minnesota State University or a business along Highway 23, we come out, find the full extent of the damage and work to return your property to its pre-loss condition.
No two Marshall properties fail the same way, so no two plans are alike. A burst pipe in a downtown storefront calls for a different approach than meltwater in a farmhouse basement outside town or a leak spreading through an apartment building on East College Drive. Our technicians use moisture meters and thermal imaging to find water hidden behind drywall, under carpet and in framing, then set professional drying equipment so the structure dries before mold can take hold in the damp months that follow. After a kitchen fire, a furnace puff-back or a lightning strike, we clean soot and remove smoke odor from homes and businesses. We document the loss with photos and moisture readings, work directly with your insurance company and keep you updated from the first call to the final walkthrough, so you can get back to life in Marshall.
