Every item removed from the property is photographed and logged before it leaves, creating a clear record for you and your insurer.
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 Derwood property.
Items are only returned once cleaning is fully verified, and returns are scheduled around your repair timeline.
A common concern we hear from Derwood 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.
A heavily sooted item can look like a total loss while the material underneath is completely undamaged, particularly with glass, metal, and sealed wood.
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.
Every Derwood pack-out includes a signed inventory receipt for your own records, separate from the copy we send to your insurer.
Every item is photographed, tagged, and logged into an inventory system before leaving the property.
Dishware, small appliances, and hard-surfaced items go through ultrasonic cleaning tanks that lift soot from crevices standard cleaning misses.
We avoid liquid cleaning on electronics entirely, using ozone and dry methods instead to protect internal components.
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.
We clean and refinish furniture pieces that would otherwise be discarded, often restoring them close to original condition.
