Whether you're working with a seller and preparing a home for sale, or just improving your investment for your own comfort, a super cleaning with disinfection and deodorization will make a dramatic difference. 

Forrest Sheperd is the President of Servpro of Scarsdale / Mt Vernon, and he takes customer satisfaction very seriously.  His family business's pledge is to exceed customer expectations.  They are located in Mount Vernon, New York and serve homes and property owners, plus businesses like restaurants and deli's, from the Hutchinson River Parkway to the Bronx River Parkway and from the top of Scarsdale to lower Mount Vernon.  Just call for a complimentary visit and quote on the cost of cleaning a minor pet stain, or after a difficult fire or water emergency.

Forrest has worked as a home builder, contractor and master carpenter for the past 24 years.  Hillary left work in television producing at Discovery Channel and other "nets" after 9/11 to join Homeland Security, in hazard mitigation.  Now, the Sheperd family is part of a 43 year-old, family run national company, Servpro.  As Independent owners, Hillary and Forrest had left their corporate lives in 2009 and started Servpro of Scarsdale / Mount Vernon - an area of the lower Hudson Valley that had been largely unserved for more than a decade.  Their timing was good because they were on hand to help local flood victims after the March 2010 storms devastated much of lower Westchester County, NY.   Nearly two years old, the Sheperd's Servpro works for clients throughout the region, and they are on call 24/7, or by appointment for regular cleaning.  Many clients are home and business owners, adjusters and insurance pros, or real estate agents-like those who were trying to close a sale after the "buyer" found what looked like mold during their "final walk through" in March.

Forrest runs the Production and Office Management areas of the business.  Meanwhile, Hillary runs the Sales and Marketing division and belongs to Chambers of Commerce, the Scarsdale Rotary (3^rd generation Rotarian), and small business and women's organizations.  She also has met great people and future colleagues at real estate and other networking events. 

With so many fire and water disaster response companies in the country, it can be difficult to decide the best one for your home, especially during a stressful water or fire emergency.  Forrest believes that what sets his Servpro apart is great service with well-trained, background checked and qualified teams who care about the homeowner and their biggest investment:  a home or business!  The last thing that a home or property owner wants to worry about, is that items may be removed from a damaged structure.  During a traumatic fire or water event, or even a routine cleaning in a building, the concerns about theft should be the last thing their customers should to worry about, according to Hillary.

I have personally referred my clients to Hillary and Forrest and they have taken care to treat them as well as I do at Floor Coverings International.  Forrest goes above and beyond to make sure his customers are treated with respect, and that they are satisfied with the results of a water damage or carpet that could just be cleaned, rather than expensively replaced.  In fact, if my customers cannot afford to replace their carpet or hardwood flooring this year, I send them to Servpro of Scarsdale / Mount Vernon.  They will be well taken care of and will return to me when they can afford a replacement later on.  It's a great referral opportunity. 

You can contact Forrest directly at the office below, followed by a list of all their services including:  help with a hoarding situation, after vandalism and even crime scenes-like in the movie, "Sunshine Cleaning."  They have hundreds of thousands of dollars invested in professional dehumidifiers and equipment that can get a property "desert dry" in mere hours, depending on the size of a room or structure.  Even after a fire, water may be a problem, if the fire department had to use water to suppress further damage.
