SERVPRO of Northern Rhode Island is IICRC certified in many things. One of them being water restoration.

Before we get into the certifications, you might be wondering, "What's IICRC?" 

IICRC stands for the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification. They set the standards for the cleaning and restoration industry, which we do comply with. 

Our teams study IICRC standards and practices in water restoration, mold remediation, carpet and upholstery cleaning, and fire restoration, just to name a few. 

What does WRT mean?

WRT stands for water damage restoration technician. 

The IICRC states "the Water Damage Restoration Technician course is designed to teach restoration personnel that performs remediation work to give them a better concept for water damage, its effects and techniques for drying of structures." 

This course gives them the resources and information to do work at commercial and residential properties. 

The next step to get hands-on training is to get ASD certified. ASD stands for applied structural drying. Before you can take the ASD course, you must be WRT certified. 

Being WRT certified means our technician, project manager, or crew chief is certified to take care of your water damage, no matter if it's in your living room or your retail store!
