In the Press: ServiceMaster Restoration by Simons Featured in Reader’s Digest
ServiceMaster Restoration by Simons is honored to announce that our expertise was featured in Reader’s Digest article, 14 Things You Should Never Clean with Water. Our President, Nasutsa Mabwa, gives readers an rundown about why light fixtures should never be cleaned using water:
“This might be a no brainer, but using a wet cloth to clean an outlet cover or light fixtures can lead to risk of electrocution or fire,” says Nasutsa Mabwa, president of ServiceMaster Restoration By Simons. “Instead, use a dry duster or dry cloth to clean outlet covers and light fixtures, or unplug the light fixture before attempting to clean it.”
We’re excited to help spread awareness about safety when cleaning with water. Though water can seem like an innocuous substance to clean with, there are some specific and common household elements that pose damage or safety risks when they come into contact with excessive water.

President of Servicemaster by Simons Nasutsa Mabwa Shared Winter Home Fire Safety Tips with ABC7
Nasutsa shares tips on how to avoid fires when staying warm during the winter with space heaters.
"We had a terrific experience with ServiceMaster. Sam and his crew were a pleasure to work with. He was prompt with his initial response, took the time needed to carefully inspect our basement and describe exactly what was needed, and completed the promised work under budget and to perfection. In addition to a job well done, he also seemed to treat his crew very well. He was careful to make certain we knew their names before he departed, and the entire team was professional and communicative any time we had questions. Highly recommended."

"ServiceMaster-RestorationbySimons provided exceptional service in response to flooding at the home of Dorothy Kane, following a storm and heavy rain. The team was professional, efficient and worked very hard to complete the cleanup and remove the related debris. We are very thankful and appreciative of this team. Sam and Nasutsa are amazing and we highly recommend this company. THANK YOU!!"

"ServiceMaster Restoration by Simons could not have been a better partner in getting through a recent rain water infiltration episode at my lakefront high-rise rental condo.
These guys were prompt, professional and productive from the moment I called frantically looking for help right through final pick-up of their moisture mitigating equipment the next week. All the while, their excellent customer service approach kept me informed + updated (aka: "calm") about the processes being utilized to dry the unit out, remove the damaged flooring materials, etc. and help ward off secondary loss.
Obviously, I hope to never experience another disaster like this, but, if I do, I know having ServiceMaster Restoration by Simons as a resource will help me endure and emerge with my property protected and my sanity intact."
