SERVPRO of Kansas City is Environmentally Friendly!

Switching to green technology is something many companies are striving for as we enter the new decade. With the rise of global warming, it becomes increasingly more important to find ways to coexist with our planet. If we want to ensure that the Earth is a suitable home for future generations, we must act now.

Ever since we were little, we have heard the phrase ‘reduce, reuse, recycle and SERVPRO of Kansas City has taken it to heart. We always strive to “...restore versus replace” wherever we can. It is one of the “...basic tenets of what we do.” By reducing the amount of waste hitting the landfill, and restoring damaged items, we can lower the demand for that item. By lowering demand, we can also reduce production as well. "By virtue of what we do, SERVPRO is one of the greenest companies that are out there."

Furthermore, SERVPRO doesn’t just conveniently claim to be green for our public image, like many companies today do. We go out of our way to incorporate and use green technologies and techniques. Whenever we find an opportunity to replace one method of restoration with something greener, we do it without question. We are one of the leaders in our industry for a good reason.

Our technicians use advanced technology to pinpoint the critical points of damage while on the job, so we can address the problem swiftly. Being able to restore the damage quickly lessens the likelihood of needing new materials. Consider the use of thermal imaging cameras. Instead of taking hours to locate every pocket of water, we can swiftly moisture map an entire building using them. The use of thermal imaging cameras directly correlates to the reduction of drywall waste. We can also use "...drone technology for inspection of buildings,” which can allow us to get a better look at the roof much more quickly. Using technology helps us cut down on time. When it comes to SERVPRO, we’re always “early adopters” of new technology that can help us become a little greener.

We always focus on saving materials like carpeting, tile-flooring, drywall, and siding, which would usually be disposed of in other cases. We also focus on using green cleaning agents. SERVPRO uses cleaning products and biocides that are plant-based and organic. We always try to use “...EPA-registered disinfectants” when addressing a mess. Here at SERVPRO, we believe in going the extra mile “to keep [a] green theme.”
