What Customers Say
Lisa StoeryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The crew that did our furniture and carpeting were AMAZING! They were extremely thorough and went above and beyond the call of duty. I would highly recommend them to anyone! SidTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I dealt with Brittney, who was both very competent and very pleasant to deal with. She also has a very strong work ethic: I emailed her with a follow-up inquiry, not knowing that she had at that point gone on maternity leave. I received a very prompt and courteous reply from Brittney, who was obviously still checking work email while on mat leave, updating me as to her status and providing me with alternate contact information. I was impressed. Ashley kerlinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our summer home in Wilmette experienced several burst pipes due to the cold temperatures, regardless of the high heat kept in the home, the cold breeze came in under the doors and froze pipes overnight. I called Servicemaster at the direction of my insurance and they were able to handle the disaster that was left behind after all the pipes leaked. I highly recommended them. Mark GoldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. These are the folks to call. Fast, efficient, and professional. They came over quickly, showed me what was needed and gave me an estimate. Fernando was great, a real pro and a nice guy. They left everything spotless and made sure everything was ready for the new dry wall and plastering. They made the whole process seamless. It was a water leak that's now just history. Patricia AlvaradoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was out of town over the weekend and returned to several burst pipes, there was ice on the walls, ceilings and floors. Although I left the heat on 70 and exposed as many pipes to heat as I could, my heater decided to malfunction at some point. I received an alert on my app that the heat was off but I was already flying home and did not expect anything to freeze. This is not what you want to come home to at 8pm at night. The only one that answered the phone and was able to come out that night was servicemaster. We went over the process of water damage remediation, insurance and how to manage the chaos. Servicemaster was also able to get me a heating guy to repair the system and discuss it with my insurance company as they were skeptical that I had any heat, fortunately servicemaster assisted me with the documentation I needed. Thank You Servicemaster by Zaba!! Phil ChapleauTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a sofa bed cleaned and protected by this ServiceMaster. They were prompt, professional, polite and worked fast. Natalia HerreraTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ServiceMaster Chicago took care of my water damage services, we also needed to pack all of our belongings in order to do the repairs and they packed our stuff for us. The repairs took a while to get on schedule but mainly because our insurance adjuster dragged his feet, I was really happy that servicemaster advocated on our behalf to get everything covered on the repairs, the insurance adjuster didn't want to pay for anything. Our home looks beautiful and the repair process was painless. Also, a big "thank you" to the office staff who accommodated my request for some boxes that I needed to grab from their storage facility in Chicago, it was really easy to work with them. Xck BrmTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The worst part about renting are the things your landlords don’t tell you. Little did we know upon move in, but there was a way for water to get into our unit thru the roof, and sure enough after a particularly heavy snow we started noticing water damage in the ceilings, which was a clear indicator of larger problems. Lucky for us (and our property manager), ServiceMaster was able to guide us thru effective mitigation and helped save our new space. Not only were they fast and effective, they were extremely caring and understanding. I could not recommend a company more, especially when you’re in need of work done effectively and expediently. Thank you again, ServiceMaster. All of our belongings would like to thank you as well. Elyse RoldanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. had a burst pipe, called service master at the direction of state farm. was very pleased with their services. Baruch TumanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Service Master was hired by our insurance company. Fernando and his team were punctual, professional, personable and very helpful for the mitigation work we needed done. Thank you!
