East Texas Is not notorious for their extreme winter conditions. Snow and ice are typically not something we have to worry too much about as Texans. As a stark contrast to that however, just a few days ago we had more snow in a single day than we have had in the past few years combined. While this sudden winter wonderland was an enjoyable change of pace for many people, the beautiful fluffy white snow doesn’t stay that way for long. After the snow melts, it leaves your Longview home or business surrounded by water. The sudden amount of water can leave lasting consequences of mold or other damage if not treated quickly.

One of the things that East Texas is actually known for though, are copious numbers of trees. Most Longview residents have at least two or three growing in their own backyard. The rapidly dropping temperature can cause the limbs of the tree to freeze, which drastically weakens them. This combined with heavy snow piling on top can cause them to break and fall. Falling tree limbs could be completely harmless and simply land on the ground, but they can also fall and puncture your roof. The quickly melting snow can then leak through, causing a myriad of different issues.

Rest assured though, SERVPRO of Longview is trained and ready to handle these exact problems. SERVPRO of Longview is locally owned and operated, so we are part of this community too. When you have a flooding or water emergency, we are already nearby and ready to help.
