Utilizing Matterport Technology After a Fire Loss
9/13/2023 (Permalink)
This is the "Dollhouse View" from the Matterport scan that allows you to see an overview of the property.
When you are looking to buy a house and search through Zillow or Realtor.com, they typically have photos throughout the home and sometimes a virtual tour option. Did you know that SERVPRO of Flower Mound/Lewisville staff are equipped with the same technology?
When a customer calls with a fire loss, the first step we take in the restoration process is to perform a Matterport scan of the property. This allows us to capture the damage caused, the contents within the home, and an accurate detail for the scope of work to discuss with the property owner and insurance company.
The scan provides a virtual tour of the home which is beneficial for scope review and estimate approvals, documentation of non-restorable items, and a faster view of the property for the adjuster prior to them being able to schedule an onsite visit.
Fire damage requires quick action and response time

When you experience a fire in your home or business, call the team at SERVPRO of Flower Mound.
A fire is sudden and can be scary for any business or homeowner. No matter how big or small, a fire can cause damage to a structure within minutes. Even if the fire itself is minimal and put out quickly, smoke damage can devastate the structure far beyond what the fire actually touches. As quickly as fire can cause serious damage to a building, it is imperative that you just as quickly address the damage.
Our team is available 24-hours to provide emergency services before a soot chemical reaction occurs on surfaces. After a fire is extinguished, soot residue begins to cover every surface. The smoke can also settle into all fabrics causing secondary damage if not addressed quickly. We have a specialized wash system capable of restoring textiles back to preloss condition.
Mitigation requires quick action so the faster our team is called out to the site to perform fire, smoke, and soot cleanup, the better the results including lower claims cost. Give our team a call when you experience a fire!
