Highly Trained Restoration Specialists

Our staff at SERVPRO of Southwest Waukesha County is highly trained in property damage restoration and cleaning and we follow specific standards or guidelines.  Our staff is trained from the day they are hired and have ongoing training throughout their time with SERVPRO. We are also required BY LAW to strictly follow all asbestos abatement State regulations. 

March of 2020 will be our 10-year anniversary of being in operation, and as a company we reflect on how much we have changed and grown over the years in both experience and in business size.  As of today, we are still learning and evolving.  As a company we have seen many different things during our existence, and we do have a strong foundation on how to handle the daily challenges that we face.  It has taken us years to gain that knowledge and expertise, and with that growth comes responsibility and credibility to our customers and our employees.  At SERVPRO we follow proper protocol because we feel if we don’t this could be unsafe practice for our customers or employees. As company we feel we have an obligation to our customers to educate them on best practices and safety standards in the restoration industry.

Our training program includes the following:
