A small village located within the Catskills region of NY state, Monticello was named after the famous Virginia estate of Thomas Jefferson. The locality has some of the best vistas and scenic natural surroundings. The town was built by two brothers Samuel F. Jones and John Patterson Jones, during the early 1800s.

The village grew steadily throughout the 19th century, although it never received a railroad and could not attain its full potential. A tragedy struck in 1909 when a huge fire wiped out the business section of the village in its entirety. The fire consumed as many as 40 buildings and caused the town a collective loss of over a million dollars. 

The local government was quick to rebuild the city after the incident. Old wooden buildings were replaced by fire-resistant brick ones, but the scars of the incidents took years to heal. 

Although the village of Monticello is small, it offers a lot to the visitors. From hiking trails to ski slopes, there is something to do all year round. Here is a short list of activities you can do while in the area-

  • Thompson Town Park- Offers various outdoor activities, including hiking trails and campsites. During the winters, you can enjoy a superb cross-country skiing trail and even a sledding hill. There are plenty of barbecue pits and pavilions for enjoying the summer as well.
  • Monticello casino and raceway- A huge 40,000 square-foot casino is full of slot machines and table games. There is an excellent dinner service here as well. You can even enjoy a concert here as well. The raceway hosts professional horse race events throughout the year as well.
  • Lakes of Monticello- There are many lakes throughout the village. You can enjoy staple lake activities, including fishing, kayaking, and swimming. The Kiamesha Lake also has a campsite and two nature trails. 
  • Holiday Mountain Ski and Fun Park- A popular destination during the winters, the park offers seven downhill ski runs. The park is also equipped with chairlifts as well. Skiing lessons are available for children and adults as well. During the off-season, the park turns into a full-service amusement park with go-karts, a mini-golf course, and batting cages. 

    Why Should you Wait for SERVPRO to Start Fire and Smoke Cleanup of your Monticello Commercial Space?

Fire damage restoration of your Monticello business is a job for the professionals. Trying to remedy the situation yourself can only worsen the damage and prolong the restoration process. SERVPRO technicians have the necessary experience and equipment to handle fire and smoke damage situations safely and effectively. 

SERVPRO technicians use several approaches based on science to eliminate the smoke and soot residue during the fire and smoke remediation

Getting rid of residue with agitation- Residues left behind after the burning of synthetic material such as plastic and polymer can be very challenging to remove. SERVPRO technicians use brushing, air, and water pressure and even high frequency sounds to loosen and eliminate these residues. 

  • Chemical cleaning products- Our restorations experts carefully select various chemical agents to clean tough residues depending on the type of fire and smoke damage. We use both hydrophilic and hydrophobic agents to dissolve the residue. 
  • Immersion cleaning- Small contents that can withstand immersion in a cleaning solution benefit from this method. It is an effective method but not usable in all cases.
