Packing and Cleaning with Care: A Complete Content Restoration Job in Jefferson, MO

Coming home to extensive water damage is every homeowner's worst nightmare, especially when it damages your personal belongings. In this case study we tackled a challenging contents cleaning Jefferson, MO project. Our client returned from vacation to find their home severely damaged by water. Ceilings had collapsed, floors were ruined, and both the kitchen and bathroom had suffered extensive damage. Here's how we helped them restore their belongings.

The Challenge: Unsalvagable Personal Belongings

Imagine walking into your home after a relaxing vacation, only to find it in shambles. That's exactly what our client experienced. Water damage had wreaked havoc throughout their house - from the basement to the upstairs rooms. Carpets were soaked, the main level bathroom was flooded, and the kitchen and bathroom were a mess. Our task? To perform a thorough contents packout and cleaning, handling everything from furniture to electronics.

Our Approach: Complete Contents Cleaning & Restoration

1. Assessment and Packout: Our first step was to assess the damage and categorize items as salvageable or unsalvageable. We carefully packed out all contents from the basement, main floor, and upstairs, ensuring that each item was handled with care.
2. Disposal of Unsalvageable Items: Unfortunately, not everything could be saved. We responsibly disposed of items that were beyond repair, focusing on environmental sustainability in our disposal methods.
3. Content Cleaning: For items that could be salvaged, our team sprang into action. We used the Esporta iS Series Washing System, one of our prized possessions, to clean over 98% of the damaged soft contents. This includes clothing, bedding, stuffed animals, and even sports equipment. The Esporta system is gentle yet effective, ensuring that each item is restored to its pre-damage condition.
4. Safe Storage: While the water damage was being remediated in the client's home, we stored the salvaged items in a secure facility. This ensured that they remained safe and undamaged until they could be returned to the client.

The Outcome: Restored Mementos

After the home was fully remediated, we returned all the cleaned and restored items to our client. They were overjoyed to see their precious belongings in excellent condition, almost as if the damage had never occurred. The relief and gratitude they expressed made every effort worth it.
