We inventory belongings item by item before pack-out, which protects both you and your claim.
Electronics, fabric, and furniture are treated with entirely different methods, matched to what actually works for each.
Belongings are stored in a secure, climate-controlled facility during restoration and repair of your Ellicott City property.
We coordinate the return of belongings so they come back once your home is actually ready for them.
A common concern we hear from Ellicott City families is whether it's even worth trying to save belongings that look badly damaged, and the honest answer is that appearance right after a fire is often misleading about what's actually salvageable.
We've restored items Ellicott City families were fully prepared to throw away, simply because the soot coating made the damage look far more severe than it was.
That said, we're upfront when something genuinely isn't salvageable rather than charging to attempt cleaning on an item with no realistic chance of recovery — the goal is an honest assessment, not maximizing billable items.
We provide a written inventory receipt at pack-out so Ellicott City families have their own copy alongside the one filed with insurance.
We build a documented inventory of every item removed, which becomes part of your insurance file.
Ultrasonic cleaning reaches into grooves and joints that hand-cleaning simply can't access.
Electronics get ozone or specialized dry-cleaning treatment rather than liquid cleaning, which can cause further internal damage.
Textiles get treated with a wash process built specifically for smoke residue, different from a standard laundry cycle.
Photographs and important documents get individual attention rather than batch processing, since each piece is often irreplaceable.
Wood furniture gets cleaned and, where needed, refinished to remove smoke staining and odor from the material.
Our team at +1-866-484-1409 walks you through what to expect before the pack-out even begins.
Our team arrives prepared to begin the documented inventory process immediately.
