Restoration

In the last phase, SERVPRO repairs any structural damage and returns your property to its previous condition. Before the space is cleared for re-entry, we’ll conduct a final inspection to make sure the area is safe, clean, and ready for you to return.

Residential Sewage Cleanup

Sewage contamination in homes is often caused by toilet overflows, pipe backups, waste line leaks, or outside floodwater. Keep in mind that raw sewage contains harmful bacteria, viruses, and pathogens that can contaminate flooring, walls, air systems, and personal belongings.

With quick, professional, and discrete intervention from SERVPRO, you can avoid further damage, mold growth, lingering odors, and long-term health risks. And quickly return to a home that’s safe and livable again.

Commercial Sewage Cleanup

Sewage damage in commercial buildings can be disruptive. But with commercial sewage cleanup and biohazard restoration from SERVPRO, it doesn’t always require an extended shutdown. We act quickly to remove contaminated water, sanitize the space, and get your business back to safe operations.

We respond 24/7 with industrial-grade equipment and certified protocols. If possible, we will isolate problem areas so your operations can continue with minimal interruption.

From overflowing toilets to large-scale black water flooding, we’ve seen it all. We’re the team to make things right again.

customers are saying

I wanted to give a big thank you to guys from SERVPRO that took care of the mess that was my home. We had a broken pipe on Labor Day and were totally stressed about what to do. Thank God for Rob and his crew.

I recently used SERVPRO of NW Brooklyn. They are the best! They were recommended to me by my insurance agent after a pipe burst in my home. They worked in my home removing walls,taking down ceilings and removing cabinets, wall units etc.The crew including Robert, the owner, could not have been more caring. SERVPRO NW Brooklyn is to be commended for not a job well done, but for a job that could not be done any better. I would hope that all of your other franchises are as good as they are.

Avi and Andres were amazing! They were so gracious, professional and willingly shared their expertise describing in detail each step and action taken to remediate flooding that occurred on three levels. In addition they did everything in their power to be respectful of the space, leaving no sign of their presence cleaning up after themselves in all areas. They also took extra time to listen to my concerns and areas for attention and did all of this after normal “business hours”. It was an emergency situation and they were both so calm and patient while the rest of us were stressed. They really made such a stressful situation so much easier! Thank you so much!!!!

Our hot water heater broke and we had 3-4 inches of water in the basement. Eric and Landell from SERVPRO of Northwest Brooklyn came right over. They explained the entire cleaning process. They sucked out the water, ran huge dehumidifiers and strong fans to dry everything out. They tested for any moisture inside the walls, which is great because we were concerned about getting mold. Luckily our floors are tile and concrete. They scrubbed the floors with antibacterial and antimold cleaner. They did a great job! I was a wreck when it happened, there was water everywhere, but 3 days later after all was dry and scrubbed, you can't even tell that we just had a big flood! I would definitely call them again!

My 89 year old mother-in-law had a water pipe break on December 31, 2020. Over 1 inch of water throughout the entire basement. SERVPRO responded at 8pm on New Year's Eve and began the cleanup. Stayed for over 2 hours to remove all the water. Returned the next 2 days - Saturday (New Year's Day) & Sunday - to complete the cleanup. Absolutely great service

15 Years of Family-Driven Emergency Response

At SERVPRO Team Allen, every emergency call is more than just a service request – it's a family reaching out for help during their most challenging moments. Since 2010, our journey from a single location to six thriving franchises across New York, including Manhattan, Queens, and surrounding boroughs, tells a story of dedication, growth, and unwavering commitment to our community.

The heart of our operation, led by Robert Allen and Mariangela Allen, beats with a simple truth: when disaster strikes, families need more than just technical expertise – they need a partner who understands the emotional weight of property damage. Our team's rapid response philosophy isn't just about quick action; it's about bringing peace of mind and professional solutions to every water, fire, mold, or asbestos challenge we face.

What truly defines us isn't just the thousands of properties we've restored – it's the relationships we've built along the way. Our team culture thrives on regular gatherings, from morning breakfasts to team BBQs, fostering an environment where exceptional service meets genuine care. This family-first approach has been our cornerstone since day one.

As we approach our 15th anniversary in 2025, we're reminded of how far we've come. Robert and Marie's story – celebrating 25 years of marriage, watching their oldest sons forge their paths at University of Alabama while their younger children attend schools in Queens and Manhattan – mirrors the growth and resilience we help our clients discover every day.

Available 24/7, SERVPRO Team Allen remains committed to being the neighbor you can count on when emergencies arise. Because in New York, we're more than just a restoration company – we're family taking care of family.

There is always something we can do to help make Brooklyn and its surrounding areas a little better. We stay actively involved with organizations like the American Red Cross, the Lion’s Club, Catholic Charities, and other drives and charities reaching out a helping hand to those who need it most. No matter how we can help, you can count on us.
