Honored to work with Southwest Oklahoma Emergency Managers.

Why choose SERVPRO of Lawton? 

Because we're your friends and neighbors, and we support our communities.

Recently, Marketing Manager Denise Henry, along with new Project Manager Jason Johnson, had the opportunity to visit with the Southwest Oklahoma Emergency Managers.

Not only did we sponsor their luncheon, we were provided an opportunity to share our SERVPRO story with nineteen county Emergency Managers.

Many of these professionals were already aware of our services, thanks in part to our First Responder program.

For others, it was a chance to learn how SERVPRO professionals were here to help their communities when storm damage happens.

Ironically, the day of the meeting was a severe weather day, with thunderstorms, hail, and tornadoes in the forecast.

Thankfully, the luncheon went smoothly, and the damaging storms held off until later in the afternoon.

The SERVPRO of Lawton team is honored to team up with area experts who work to keep our communities safe.

Here in your community, and here to help when damage happens.

Supporting our community and our military members

Together with our community partners, we're here to help keep food banks stocked

Why do more people choose SERVPRO? They prefer to work with a name they know, and the brand they trust.

Denise Henry, Marketing Representative for SERVPRO of Lawton, is very involved in local organizations and events.

"Working with our community partners to help those in need is important to me, and helps support our mission that we're here to help. Not just with fire and water damage cleanup and restoration. But to truly help our communities."

One local event was a food drive for the local Armed Services YMCA programs in Lawton and Altus. 

Together with other community members, SERVPRO of Lawton teamed up with Communication Federal Credit Union to establish permanent drop off sites at the Oklahoma locations, to ensure a consistent supply of food items for the food pantry.

This pantry ensures that our younger military members have a readily available food source, especially critical during these difficult financial times.

Working together to build relationships and support our community members in need. 

That's the SERVPRO way.

Customers and insurance agents trust the cleanup and restoration experts at SERVPRO of Lawton. You should, too.

Why choose SERVPRO of Lawton?

Insurance agents and property managers recommend us. And so does one customer who kept our technicians supplied with fresh baked pumpkin bread.

What began as a water loss turned into three weeks of extracting water and demolition of hardwood floors.

This customer was notably distraught when our technicians first arrived. They explained the drying process thoroughly, and she became calmer and more comfortable with what our team would be doing to help make it "Like it never even happened."

By the end of day four, she started baking. Pumpkin bread. Our technicians complimented the smells from the kitchen, and that's all it took for this customer to bake for the whole team each week.

By the end of demolition, our team of professionals had the home on track to receive new flooring and return this customers life back to normal.

She thanked us profusely for our help, and we thanked her for keeping us supplied with fresh baked goods.

She said she was actually going to miss us, as she had gotten used to having us around. We assured her we would miss her more!

Agents, adjusters and businesses rely on SERVPRO of Lawton

Why do more insurance agents and adjusters recommend SERVPRO of Lawton to help their customers?

Because they know our professionally trained team of fire and water damage technicians are here to help when they need us.

Angela contacted us to help with damage after a car drove through a customers business.

Within the hour, our team of cleanup and restoration experts were on site, boarding up the business to protect the contents, and determining the extent of the damage.

The next morning, our team arrived to clean up broken glass from the windows, as well as the damaged inventory.

We thoroughly documented the damaged inventory for the customer and the insurance adjuster, restored broken counters and display units, cleaned and deodorized the property so the business could reopen the next day.

Disaster Response teams help restore properties at Ft. Sill

It's good to be green.

We don't mean renewable green, we mean SERVPRO green.

The recent arctic blast created massive water damage throughout Texoma, and SERVPRO was called to help with the restoration process.

Our national Disaster Recovery Teams are still deployed around the region, helping our communities recover from this disaster.

And we're proud to welcome them to Texoma. Our own teams have deployed to hurricane damaged areas to help with the restoration process, but this is the first time we've needed the help ourselves.

The response to our communities needs has been amazing, and our customers truly appreciate the large scale response.

Here is a brief post from one of our restoration sites at Ft. Sill:

"Corvias Property Management has secured SERVPRO, a nationally recognized disaster recovery service, to assist in the recovery efforts. They have amassed a team of nearly 100 people to assess homes and complete repairs. They have already completed more than 87 assessments and have begun repairs on 8 homes. Their crews are working closely with our resident team to schedule work in impacted homes. They will continue working throughout the weekend so that homes are restored as soon as possible."

We're helping feed families this holiday season

Teaming up with Nissan of Lawton to help feed families in need.

You see it every year. Food banks and other non-profit organizations asking for help to fee those in need in our communities.

This year, we're seeing it more frequently. The pandemic has left many people without jobs, or with a lesser job that makes it hard to provide for their family.

And the organizations who provide help are desperate. Food supplies were almost non-existent for months, and what was received was not enough to provide help to an overwhelming number of people.

SERVPRO of Lawton is doing its part to help feed the hungry. 

Our marketing representative, Dee Henry, is very active with the Lawton Fort Sill Chamber of Commerce and the Oklahoma Working Leaders.

Both organizations have multiple food donation programs, and we've supported every event.

And we will continue to help our neighbors in need. 

Why choose SERVPRO? Because we're a part of this community, and we're truly here to help.

When our governor implemented a stay at home policy, most residents did just that.

Except our First Responders. They were at the forefront of this pandemic, and they had little information to keep them safe.

SERVPRO of Lawton reached out to all First Responders in Southwest Oklahoma and offered free proactive cleanings of their vehicles and offices.

Almost every agency responded, and our teams were busy working to provide them with a safe, clean unit.

There were a lot of tears at each location, both theirs and ours. They were so grateful that we were helping to keep their work areas clean and safe, protecting them and their families.

We continue to provide these cleanings to our First Responders. They respond when we call for help, and we respond to their calls.

Giving back to our communities. That's why you choose SERVPRO.

Your memories, carefully packed and safely stored

2020 has been a very stressful year for families.

Many of you don't live near a loved one, and the nationwide quarantine meant trips were cancelled and family reunions rescheduled.

For those with loved ones who were ill, this year was especially hard. You couldn't be there to hold their hand. You couldn't hug them and tell them you loved them one last time. And you couldn't attend their funeral when they passed away in peace.

But you could call SERVPRO to help with cleanup and move out services.

We want you to know that your loved ones' property was treated with dignity and respect. We said a prayer for your family as worked to document each item and carefully pack it into a box for storage.

We cried over your loss, and we cried again when we met you to deliver your loved ones' belongings.

We here at SERVPRO of Lawton want you to know that you matter. Your family matters. And your memories matter.

Throughout these difficult times, we are honored that you chose us to help.

So we offered free proactive cleanings of their cars, trucks, and ambulances. We even cleaned their personal vehicles. All free.

Why? Because we're SERVPRO. We live and work in these communities. And we're always here to help our neighbors in need.

Why should you choose SERVPRO of Lawton for your fire, water and viral cleaning needs? Because when life changes, you need experts you can trust.

Working remotely during a pandemic

Practicing social distancing

Hello! Denise Henry, marketing representative for SERVPRO of Lawton and Wichita Falls. Well, Tyler Watts is the rep for Wichita Falls, I just do all the social and web marketing.

My friends on Facebook and in the Chamber of Commerce call me Dee. And they've gotten used to morning pictures like this. Obviously I'm not a professional photographer, but I like for my friends to still see me. 

And my boss. No better way of checking in every day than a picture!

Marketing is different now. I'm used to stopping in and seeing my customers, and I really miss being able to do that.

Thankfully, most of my customers are also friends on my Facebook page. So we have a roll call of "Good morning" each day, and can check in with each other.

Working from home has helped develop better relationships with my customers. We get to see the real side of each other, and we share more important information than we used to.

Funny, this social distancing has actually brought us all closer!

We all share the same worry about how bad this is going to be. And we wonder if this is the new normal, or if we'll ever get our lives back to what they were.

And, we wonder if maybe what we need is a combination of old normal, mixed with more family time.

I'm blessed to work with an amazing company that allows me to work from home. I would never have imagined that I would have to, but I guess none of us did.

Good visiting with y'all. Take care, and stay healthy!

New SERVPRO First Responder Bowl to be played at Cotton Bowl Stadium

11/18/2019 (Permalink)

SERVPRO First Responders Bowl December 26th

In a joint effort to honor the service and sacrifice of America’s First Responders, the annual college football bowl game played at Cotton Bowl Stadium in Dallas, Texas has been renamed the SERVPRO First Responder Bowl.  Kickoff for the newly christened SERVPRO First Responder Bowl is set for December 26 at 12:30 p.m. CT (1:30 p.m. ET) and will be televised by ESPN.  The agreement between ESPN Events and SERVPRO was brokered by Denver-based Impression Sports & Entertainment.

"We are truly grateful for all first responders’ sacrifice and service,” said Brant Ringler, Executive Director of the SERVPRO First Responder Bowl. “It is a tremendous privilege to honor these brave men and women who protect our communities 24/7/365. As this game continues to grow, so do our ties with first responders. Additionally, having a sponsor like SERVPRO who works along-side and supports these community heroes reinforces our goals of recognizing our first responders.”

"We are proud to present the SERVPRO First Responder Bowl dedicated to honoring some of the hardest working men and women in our country" said Sue Steen, CEO of SERVPRO Industries, Inc. "We recognize the dedication and selfless acts of our First Responders and are honored to help highlight and celebrate the commitment of these everyday heroes."

The 2018 SERVPRO First Responder Bowl is the ninth edition of the bowl game, formerly known as the Heart of Dallas Bowl, and part of the 89-year history of games being played at Cotton Bowl Stadium on the grounds of Dallas’ Fair Park, which features 227 acres of museums, attractions, history, art and performances located in the heart of the ninth largest city in the United States.

First responders to be honored include police officers, firefighters, EMS workers, correctional officers, search and rescue, dispatchers, security guards, federal agents, border patrol agents and military personnel who have specialized training and are the first to arrive and provide assistance at the scene of an emergency.

“This is an exciting change, and we are humbled by the fact that an actual bowl game has been named exclusively for the first responders of this country,” Dallas Fire-Rescue Fire Chief David Coatney said.

“We are truly honored to have a bowl game here in Dallas named after the hard working men and women serving and protecting communities across this country.  It always feels great to be recognized, and I know our officers and firefighters are touched by this overwhelming show of support, “said Dallas Police Chief U. Renee Hall.

Why SERVPRO? Because of the pumpkin bread!

8/28/2019 (Permalink)

Why SERVPRO? Excellent customer service equals fresh baked bread.

Why choose SERVPRO of Lawton?

Insurance agents and property managers recommend us. And so does one customer who kept our technicians supplied with fresh baked pumpkin bread.

What began as a water loss turned into three weeks of extracting water and demolition of hardwood floors.

This customer was notably distraught when our technicians first arrived. They explained the drying process thoroughly, and she became calmer and more comfortable with what our team would be doing to help make it "Like it never even happened."

By the end of day four, she started baking. Pumpkin bread. Our technicians complimented the smells from the kitchen, and that's all it took for this customer to bake for the whole team each week.

By the end of demolition, our team of professionals had the home on track to receive new flooring and return this customers life back to normal.

She thanked us profusely for our help, and we thanked her for keeping us supplied with fresh baked goods.

She said she was actually going to miss us, as she had gotten used to having us around. We assured her we would miss her more!
