When fire, flood, or mold strikes, it’s easy to feel like your home and memories are beyond saving. The urge to toss everything out is real, but before you do, know this: many of your most treasured belongings may not be lost forever. With the right professional care, items that seem ruined can often be restored, giving you back more than just your things, thus giving you back peace of mind.
At BROADCO Property Restoration, our content cleaning services help homeowners and businesses recover their most valuable and meaningful possessions. From photos and electronics to furniture and documents, our team knows how to bring damaged items back to life.
What Is Contents Cleaning and Restoration?
Contents cleaning refers to the specialized process of restoring personal property that has been damaged by fire, water, or mold. Items like furniture, electronics, clothing, documents, artwork, and family heirlooms can often be salvaged using advanced cleaning, deodorizing, and drying techniques. This process plays a critical role in disaster recovery, helping reduce total loss and preserving items that hold personal or financial value.
Our technicians evaluate every item, determining what can be saved and what requires extra treatment to get it back to a usable state. Using state-of-the-art equipment and industry-approved methods, we clean, sanitize, and safely store your items until your home or commercial property is fully restored.
When Contents Cleaning Can Save Valuables
Not all damage is final. In fact, many homeowners are surprised to learn how much can be restored after a disaster. Content cleaning is especially effective when action is taken quickly, before contaminants like mold or soot set in permanently. Here are a few scenarios when contents restoration can make all the difference:
- After a House Fire: Smoke and soot can affect nearly every surface in your home, including textiles and electronics. Professional content cleaning can remove those particles, eliminate lingering odors, and restore items to pre-loss condition. This is especially important if you’re wondering how to clean stuff after a house fire without causing more damage.
- Following Water Damage or Flooding: Water exposure, even in small amounts, can warp wood, damage paper goods, and create an environment for mold growth. Our technicians use specialized drying chambers and cleaning tools to restore these items before they deteriorate further.
- In Cases of Mold Contamination: Mold isn’t just a wall or carpet issue. It can cling to clothing, furniture, and soft goods. Contents cleaning removes spores, neutralizes odors, and helps allow for safe re-entry into your space.
Even when damage looks severe, there’s a good chance that professional cleaning can rescue more than you think. Let us help you make an informed decision before you toss anything that might still be saved.

While your property undergoes repairs, your cleaned contents are stored in a climate-controlled space to keep them safe and ready for return.

Once your property is restored, we deliver your cleaned items and help with unpacking, making the return process as seamless as possible.
