Fire Damage and Water Damage in South Shore, IL
The jaw-dropping views of the Chicago Skyline and Lakefront easily define South Shore, IL. However, there are alternative activities you can do in the area apart from enjoying the sun and sand at the beach. A visit to the South Shore Cultural Center opens up other opportunities, including testing its solarium, culinary institute, and theater.
Contents such as furniture, appliances, and accessories give character to any property, whether commercial or residential. Water or fire damage can ruin contents, affecting many of your activities at your premises. However, it may not be possible to prevent such deterioration, so how you handle your valuables matters because it determines whether you save or lose more items. Several approaches can help you effectively manage valuables if you understand how they work. You can also get a comprehensive content restoration and management plan from SERVPRO.
Viable Ways to Manage Items After Fire or Water Damage
- Moving contents
- Onsite cleaning
- Safe disposal
The destruction caused by moisture and fire products such as soot is gradual and instantaneous. Therefore, leaving items in place once exposed because you believe they are already damaged may be counterproductive since it creates the opportunity for unfettered deterioration. The affected items may also be hazardous to people. For instance, the accumulation of smoke particles inside electronic appliances increases the chances of overheating and short circuits if such items are operated. Moving the contents is one way to control the outcome. SERVPRO professionally handles such move-out processes.
Crucial Considerations When Moving Contents
- Keeping proper inventory
- Minimizing breakage
- Establishing secure storage areas
Nothing is worse than moving contents from the affected areas of your home, only to deteriorate faster in the new storage area. You can take some actions to prevent such outcomes. In case of water damage, ensuring all items are dry before transfer or storage is necessary. If it is fire damage, onsite cleaning can help remove corrosive residues. SERVPRO technicians also help sort items to remove those that need disposal.

What our South Shore
customers are saying
Good Morning.
I just wanted to let you know the job you did for our insured, Frank Y. went very well. He was raving about how wonderful it went and how impressed he was that Frank had stopped by to check on everything and the end. he said the communication with the Hartford adjuster was seamless and he couldn't be happier!
It really gives me great peace of mind knowing I can refer our clients to you, and know they will be satisfied because you always go above and beyond.
Best Regards,
I know who I will call anytime I have a problem with mold in my home. Your crew was fantastic!
I was expecting it to take a few days for your team to arrive since there was so many storms. Very impressed you arrived within a day and started to dry my home.
Very impressed with your hardworking team. Fantastic job!
I called right away when I saw the water running down my walls after the storm hit. SERVPRO arrived quickly and placed a tarp on the roof to prevent more water coming in. They then removed all of the water that came in. Thanks!
Chris and his team did and amazing job cleaning my basement after a flood from a pile that burst. Chris is super nice, professional, and knowledgeable. The team showed up right on time (I love punctual people) and ready to work. He took his time explaining everything that was going to or could take place. I had a lot of water damage and mold forming in majority of my basement. They took their time and did everything thoroughly. They were able to remove and treat all of the places with mold and they took care of my items that were salvageable. They also did a great job cleaning up behind themselves. Give Chris a raise he’s amazing!
