Expert Care for Irreplaceable Personal Possessions  

When a disaster of any type strikes a Shoreline, WA, home, most people worry first about structural damage. Walls, ceilings, and floors take the brunt of the visible harm from water, storms, fire, and other devastating events. The good news is that damaged building materials respond well to rebuilding, refinishing, and repainting, looking and performing like new with the right tools and products in the hands of experienced restoration professionals from AdvantaClean of the Eastside. 

During our successful recovery of your home’s structure, your focus shifts to the furnishings, household goods, and personal belongings that also suffered damage. Never fear, as we feature content cleaning during Shoreline projects as a key part of our disaster restoration services.

Contents Cleaning Is Essential

The items you and your family accumulate are fundamental to your daily life. Ordinary items you take for granted but needing prompt replacement if cleanup is nonexistent or delayed might include: 

  • Clothing, bedding, and other linens 

  • Furniture 

  • Dishes, pots and pans, utensils

  • Electronics and appliances 

Other articles have great sentimental value, representing personal and joint memories and accomplishments. They are unique and irreplaceable, including but not limited to:

  • Photos 

  • Books and documents 

  • Special apparel like wedding dresses and sports uniforms  

  • Gifts, keep-sakes, and heirlooms that can range from beloved teddy bears to artwork to awards to one-of-a-kind pieces of inherited furniture and more 

Tossing out damaged contents might seem like the only option, but we specialize in salvaging items considered to be lost causes. Our team utilizes advanced cleaning technologies, certified and best-practice techniques, and specialized equipment and products to clean and restore a wide range of contents.

The AdvantaClean Contents Cleaning Process 

After your call, our certified Contents Processing Technicians (CPT), trained under the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC), arrive ready to assess, sort, inventory, and protect salvageable items. We meticulously pack out your affected belongings, documenting each item and photographing it before transporting it to our off-site cleaning and climate-controlled storage facility. 

Depending on the type and extent of the damage, we use a variety of proven techniques to clean and restore your possessions: 

  • Industrial, hand washing, and drying clean textiles like clothing, rugs, or linens. 

  • Wet/dry vacuuming and cleaning work efficiently for upholstery, and using drying pods facilitates evaporation, preventing microbial growth.  

  • Ultrasonic and immersion baths are the industry standard for fragile or soot, muck, or other residue-damaged items. 

  • Highly specialized and evolving drying and cleaning strategies are available for books and photos, which can include freeze-drying and sublimation approaches. 

  • Electronic cleaning and drying, as determined by manufacturers, prevent shock and short-circuiting. 

  • Ozone, hydroxyl, and enzymatic treatments are invaluable for odor removal and stubborn residues. 

  • EPA-registered antimicrobial applications inhibit the growth of mold and bacteria. 

Throughout this process, we work closely with your insurance provider to ensure all cleaning efforts and item documentation meet claim requirements. This collaboration ensures you receive fair claims coverage for cleaning or replacement when all else fails, helping you avoid unnecessary out-of-pocket expenses.
