Our SERVPRO Technicians take great care with your belongings and contents after you have experienced the hardships of fire and flooding.

Whether you are a business owner or a homeowner, experiencing the hardship of property damage due to fire or flooding, can be quite devastating.  Not only does is disrupt your life and business, but it also potentially damages and ruins your belongings.  That is why SERVPRO of Greater Northern Charleston and Dorchester County prefers the mentality of “restore” versus “replace”.

SERVPRO has the ability with its expertise in mitigation and restoration, to provide a clear path to helping you save money wherever possible.  One area where we can help is assessing whether your property and belongings needs to be replaced, or whether we can work to restore the item back like it was pre-disaster. 

Our technicians are trained to help you determine if something like a chair or couch is salvageable, where ultimately you decide if you want us to restore it back to how it was pre-disaster or have it replaced altogether.  If a belonging is not going to be covered by insurance, and will come out-of-pocket, then consider our ability to restore, and the cost savings that come with that decision.

We provide a pretest of belongings and contents to determine which can be restored, we use different methods to clean your belongings, this includes:

• Dry Cleaning – Cleaning light residues or a pre-wipe before wet cleaning.
• Wet Cleaning – A cleaning method used on moderate to heavy residues.

• Abrasive Cleaning – The surface is cleaned using agitation by brush or bristle.
• Foam Cleaning – Used when upholstery fabrics will shrink or color bleeds with wet cleaning.
• Immersion Cleaning – Contents are cleaned via dipping into cleaning solution.

Beyond our different methods of cleaning to help the restoration process of your property contents we also have the ability to assist with move-outs and pack-outs where belongings are placed into temporary storage to protect them during property restoration and construction.
