We Have You Covered
Time to Get Your Life Back
We treat your personal belongings the way you should expect us to – as if they were our own. Losing items that have very special meaning to you can be especially painful. We use the most cutting-edge technology to keep that from happening.
If you’ve had damage to your home and personal belongings, here are some things to keep in mind:
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW?
- In smaller fires, content and structure cleaning should be the first task to address
- Soot and fire extinguisher dust left on items can “etch” the items making them unrestorable (when touching items wear gloves to lessen etching)
- If you are living in the home, breathing in the soot floating in the air can be bad for your health
- We also will assist with any duct cleaning needed to clean the air system.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW?
- Contents normally need to be addressed first after the home has been secured and released from fire investigators
- This allows for the restoration companies and adjusters to have a clear picture of the extent of structural damage
- The longer items are covered in soot and water, the lesser the chance for restoration
- Removing items creates a safer environment for crews
- For non-restorable items, we will photo inventory every item in an easy-to-read report for you to share with your insurance company.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW?
- We use state-of-the-art inventory software to create a comprehensive digital inventory all of your items
- All of your contents are categorized by type and room for organization
- Detailed item information is recorded (brands, model numbers, and serial numbers)
- Inventory is taken onsite as we safely pack your belongings for transport to our facility
- All items are detail cleaned, deodorized, repacked and stored in our secure facility for safekeeping while your home is repaired.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW?
- We will also create a list of non-restorable items also known as non-salvageable or total-loss items
- This list will come in an Excel spreadsheet format as well as a PDF report with photos, serial numbers, and model numbers of each item
- Our attention to detail ensures everything is cataloged properly down to your favorite ink pen
- Reports are easy to navigate for you and your carrier to determine the value for your belongings.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW?
- Water damage to contents can quickly grow microbial growth and mildew
- Wood furniture can quickly warp beyond repair and irreplaceable documents can deteriorate
- Non-salvageable items will be documented for your insurance company
- Removing items will help facilitate a quicker, safer repair process for your structure
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW?
- Microbial growth can be very hazardous to you and your families health
- Often times microbial growth in structures is addressed but contents is overlooked in the remediation process
- Packing out of unaffected contents lessens the risk for cross contamination
- Packing out of affected contents assists for quick remediation as well as helps facilitate quicker repairs
