SERVPRO of Clear Lake is committed to being the best in the industry.  We take restoring your home and business back to its preloss conditions seriously.  We know that damages to one of your largest investments can be a stressful time, but we are here to help you get back to normal again.

Our office is dedicated to following the industry standards set by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certifications.  We study and utilize the S500 as the standard guide for performing remediation services.

The S500 provides practical standards and specific steps for water damage restoration.  The S500 is a foundation of best practices for proper structural drying and water mitigations ervices.  The standard was developed with a wide array of providers having their voice and giving opinions and direction on what the standard practices should be.  

Included in these groups were restoration professionals, scientists, trade associations serving the restoration community, chemists, cleaning and restoration training schools and members of the insurance industry.

The IICRC S500 training is a two-part format.  The first half is the standard itself outlining the details of the standard restoration process.  The second part is the reference guide to better understand the concepts.
