Highly Trained Restoration Specialists
At SERVPRO of Santa Maria we are committed to regular training and continued education. We know that the better trained our team is the better we’re able to respond, not just with speed, but with skill. And, that’s what makes our SERVPRO team deadly: we’re fast and skillful.
We train our team through in-team mentoring and IICRC certifications in Water Damage Restoration, Applied Structural Drying, Fire and Smoke Restoration and Commercial Drying (among other topics).
It’s important to Mark Powers, SERVPRO of Santa Maria’s local owner and operator, that our team does good work, day in and day out.
With skill we address water and fire damage in the greater Santa Maria and surrounding areas.
