One of the types of services SERVPRO of Bear/New Castle is proud to offer is ultrasonic cleaning and contents restoration, which is one of the most efficient and effective ways to restoring your smoke, water, and mold damaged property.

About Ultrasonic Cleaning

Ultrasonic cleaning is one of the most effective and efficient way of cleaning contents. The secret is cavitation, which is when millions of microscopic bubbles are repeatedly formed and immediately collapse. This action causes the bubbles to penetrate into every nook and cranny. What’s impressive is that there are no scrubbing or abrasive chemicals!! This process involves submerging items into a pre-wash station, next into the wash station, and then it moves to the third machine seen pictured where they are then rinsed.

About Contents Restoration

Contents restoration is a significant aspect of what we do. It not only does it help to restore damaged property, it helps to restore people’s lives and livelihoods. While property damage can take on many forms, it’s important to homeowners is that their lives are return to normal, and that they get their property back, as fast as possible.

Of course, when property can be returned depends on the type and severity of the damage. Not every item, like those burnt or melted in fire losses, can be restored, but a great number of items that would have typically been determined to be unsalvageable in the past can now be quickly restored and returned to their rightful owner with SERVPRO of Bear/New Castle’s Ultrasonic Cleaning Services.

Benefits of Ultrasonic Cleaning for Contents Restoration 

The benefits of restoring property with SERVPRO of Bear/New Castle’s Ultrasonic Cleaning Services:

  1. For Property Owners: Property is restored and returned quickly, whereas traditional cleaning methods can take weeks and cause additional property damage. Most people are happy simply getting their property back, especially if it means getting their lives back to normal as fast as possible and even more so if the items have sentimental value.
  2. For Insurance Companies: The cost of restoring an item versus reimbursing the owner for the item’s full value is dramatically diminished. 

Types of Contents Restoration

The damage that occurs to property during fires, floods, and other disasters is often much more severe than it first appears. Fire is destructive and an item that is physically burned or melted cannot be restored. However, property that has been engulfed in smoke, covered in soot, stained or discolored by water or contaminated by chemicals or molds can usually be restored to functional (or even good-as-new) condition with SERVPRO of Bear/New Castle’s Ultrasonic Cleaning Services. 

How Common Damage Occurs

Damage to property and personal possessions can occur in many different ways. While damage as described above is common, fires are particularly troublesome as they can often result in multiple forms of damage. For example:

During A Fire: 

Fires can produce vast amounts of smoke that leave soot deposits on property. Depending on what has burned and the temperature of the fire, the soot produced by the fire may not only be mixed with a variety of chemicals and toxins. Additionally, physical properties of the soot can range from a fine powder to a thick sludge. Furthermore, because the particulate matter that makes up soot (and the chemical residue) is microscopic, it can not only penetrate deep into tiny crevices on the surface of an item, but it can also “sink” deep into the item itself. This is especially true of electronics which can actually attract soot and dirt because they can generate magnetic fields or become charged with static electricity.

Immediately After A Fire: 

The water that was used to extinguish the flames can discolor the surfaces of many types of items. Additionally, water can cause severe physical damage since the materials from which many items are made can actually absorb surprising amounts of water.

Long After A Fire: 

Many types of materials and even the items themselves can retain significant levels of moisture. Moisture absorbed by an item that has not been properly dried, or that remains on or near the surface, may quickly become a breeding ground for molds and bacteria or other potentially hazardous residues.
