When property damage occurs, it’s obvious that your home will incur damage. Property damage is often caused by fire, water, wind, or mold, or numerous other sources. But what about your personal belongings?  Recovering your belongings after they’ve sustained damaged is just as important as restoring your home or office.  Many items like memorabilia, photographs, sentimental items and important documents are irreplaceable.  Even if items are replaceable, replacing those things adds up quickly and increases stress to an already stressful situation.  This is where a contents restoration facility comes into the restoration process. The term “contents” means your belongings in your home.
