Why is SERVPRO the First Choice of Jacksonville Residents for Fire Damage Restoration? 

Located on the New River banks, Jacksonville is known for Camp Lejeune, a US marine corps training facility and a Navy base. The military established the camp in 1941, and the city's population exploded since then. Before founding the post, Jacksonville had had only 800 residents; by 2019, the number increased to over 70,000. The town also holds a record for being the youngest city in the country, partly due to a significant military presence.

The vicinity to the coast and Croatan National forest makes Jacksonville a perfect vacation spot for tourists from across the country. The sapphire waters of the New River are a sight to behold while you are in the city. Picturesque Atlantic beaches are just a drive away, where you can bask in the sun and relax. Some of the best beaches to check out while you are in Jacksonville are:

  • Hammocks beach state part- Located near Crystal Coast, the park covers a vast area of about 1600 acres. One of the most fun activities to do while in the park is kayak to the nearby Bear Island, about 4 miles from the shore. It consists of an extensive dune system. You can camp here, but most of the island is still undisturbed and wild.
  • Topsail Island Beaches- The gorgeous barrier beaches of the island are perfect for hiking during the sunset or sunrise. Topsail Island is a sea turtle sanctuary. According to folklore, pirate ships sailed the seas in this area during ancient times, and the infamous pirate Blackbeard hid his treasure on the Topsail island.
  • Wrightsville Beach- Another pristine beach near Jacksonville, there are a ton of things to do here. From paddle-boarding to kayaking, there are a ton of activities for both adults and children alike on this beach.
  • Onslow Beach- Located between Intercoastal Waterway and the Atlantic, the beach is open to all authorized Department of Defense ID cardholders.

Witnessing fire and smoke damage at your Jacksonville home can be overwhelming. Looking at all the damage, you might find it difficult to determine how and where the restoration process begins.

Cleaning residue during a fire and smoke restoration and cleanup is a difficult task. Different types of residues require different approaches. The most common types of residue left after the fire and smoke damage fits into one of the following three categories:

  • Dry smoke residue is often the easiest to clean and is formed by burning natural substances such as wood.
  • Wet smoke residue- Difficult to clean and is formed by burning synthetic material, including plastics and polymers.
  • Protein smoke residue- Formed due to the burning of proteins such as meat and fish. It is challenging to clean and requires deodorization as well.

SERVPRO techs apply a different approach for each of these residues to return your Jacksonville home to "Like it never even happened." Call SERVPRO of Pender / West Onslow Counties at (910) 319-0600. We are here 24/7 to serve you.
