Restoring Fire-Damaged Items

2/15/2023 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa understands that the items inside the structure are really what makes your house a home. Our crews are trained to perform fire damage restoration on structures like your home, as well as the contents inside.

SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa has a “restore” mentality instead of a “replace” mindset. However, it is important to understand that not every item that survives a fire is able to be restored. Our trained technicians will analyze your fire-damaged items to determine if restoration is possible.

Here are the several methods that can be used to clean your contents:

• Dry cleaning to clean light residues or pre-clean before wet cleaning
• Wet cleaning to remove moderate to heavy residues
• Spray and wipe to restore items that can’t withstand wet cleaning
• Foam cleaning for upholstery fabrics that might shrink or bleed if wet-cleaned
• Abrasive cleaning involving agitation of the surface being cleaned
• Immersion cleaning where contents are dipped into a bath of the cleaning solution

Do not lose hope for your cherished items when they are damaged in a fire. Let SERVPRO of Tuscaloosa inspect them for the possibility of restoration. We are always here to help!
