Dealing with Contents Cleaning right now?
Our emergency line is answered 24/7. Call us and a team member will guide you through exactly what to do while awaiting crew arrival.
What To Do First
Follow these steps in order. Tap each item when it's done.
What NOT To Do
These are the most common mistakes that worsen damage and complicate your insurance claim.
DO NOT:Don't dry wet contents with high heat
High heat damages electronics, warps wood furniture, and sets stains in fabric. Professional drying uses controlled temperature and humidity.
DO NOT:Don't attempt to clean smoke-damaged items with bleach
Bleach can permanently discolor and damage smoke-affected materials. Professional cleaning uses service-specific chemistry.
DO NOT:Don't assume damaged items can't be saved
Professional contents restoration saves far more than homeowners expect — including electronics, documents, art, and soft goods.
Not sure if something is safe to do? Call us at (757) 285-5963 before acting. We'd rather answer a question than have you make the damage worse.
