An Overview of the Contents Restoration Process

In the aftermath of a fire or water disaster, it is absolutely important to initiate contents restoration immediately. Your precious belongings — from family heirlooms and antiques to important documents and electronic equipment — have to be cleaned and treated promptly if you want to save them from total ruin.

Our staff at SERVPRO of Oldham/Shelby are highly trained and have had many years of experience performing contents recovery and restoration for disaster-affected properties. After we receive your call, our team will go to your property immediately to inspect its condition. We will transfer your belongings to our special climate-controlled facility where the restoration work will be performed.

In case we determine that some of your items cannot be restored to their preloss condition, we will let you know about it. We can prepare a list which you can check so that you can make an informed decision about what to do with your belongings. Nothing will be disposed of without your knowledge or permission.

• Soft Goods – Items like clothing, drapes, beddings, leather goods, shoes, sportswear, backpacks, and so on will be cleaned to rid them of dirt and pathogens.
