SERVPRO of Sussex County - Go With What You Know!

   Sussex County Delaware is currently experiencing growth at a more rapid rate than at any time in its history.  The Cape Gazette recently ran a story on this boom and offered some staggering statistics.  There are over 11,000 lots or units under projects or plans for construction.  More than 350,000 square feet of new commercial space has been approved or under review.  Schools are expanding, new hospitals are being built and new large medical centers are planned or under construction.  There are plans for 5 new hotels offering an additional 430 rooms.  It has been said that 5 out of every 6 people moving to Delaware are relocating in Sussex County; with an estimated population increase of more than 15% within the next five years. 

  SERVPRO of Sussex County has been a steady fixture in our community for more than 25 years and we view this growth with optimism.  However, with all of the new construction, we are seeing new service companies in our area that are attempting to profit from this growth.  Almost every day, we encounter a different or new “specialist” offering similar services to our community.  We have heard and witnessed accounts of poor service and workmanship and we are concerned that these “bandwagon” companies will leave local patrons feeling less than satisfied as they focus on quantity of work instead of quality.  Where we offer free inspections – we are seeing many competitors charging for the same services.  We encounter efforts to discount and or buy business away from us; or companies which tout abilities and experience that is simply false.  Most of these predatory competitors are not even located in Sussex County and none offer the expertise or experience that SERVPRO is known for throughout our nation.  We encourage our local patrons to go with what they know and most know that SERVPRO is the most respected and trusted remediation / restoration provider in our area.  So we say – Let the buyer beware.

  SERVPRO of Sussex County has a true commitment to excellence in our community because this is where we work and live.  Trust local business to serve local business and residents.
