SERVPRO is ready to help if the" big one" hits.

El Centro Residents Know About the San Andreas Fault, but Few Have Driven Through it.

One need only think of the El Centro earthquake of 1940 to understand how intertwined the city’s history and development are with the San Andreas fault. Many Californians and visitors to the state are constantly alert regarding seismic activity natural to the area. An excellent way to learn more about the spot takes place not too far. Leaving Palm Desert, you can explore the geologic features of the San Andreas fault. At the same time, a guide explains the vegetation and animal life in the formation and the influence of the Native American Cahuilla tribe. Make sure to consult online availability to book a tour, and keep in mind the following-

• The tour is done in an open-air Jeep, leaving from Palm Desert.
• As explained by the naturalist guide traveling with you, you can walk around some areas.
• A minimum of 2 guests is necessary to book the tour, which is not wheelchair accessible.

Just as we expect, the San Andreas acts up occasionally. Thus, we should assume flash flooding will happen in our region. SERVPRO technicians are ready to help when flash flooding removal services are necessary following a natural event. When a disaster occurs, it is time to leave it up to the experts, and SERVPRO of El Centro/Salton City is the best water restoration company in the region.
