SERVPRO Offers Professional Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration to Sacramento Buildings--Large and Small

Protecting Artifacts in Fire-Damaged Sacramento Museums

Museums throughout the Sacramento area offer a look into global and local history that must get protected for viewing by interested parties for generations to come. Unfortunately, as with any building, a museum could fall victim to disasters like fires. Finding the right professional restoration team is critical at this point, as the right technicians can help protect these unique artifacts and items from becoming unsalvageable and worthless.

With so much of the area’s history tied up in the displays of your Sacramento museum, protecting it from fire damage has to be a top priority. Even small localized blazes can cause widespread effects throughout the facility with smoke and soot damages. Our SERVPRO professionals have expert cleaning strategies to provide on the spot restoration for your building, but also pack-out services to carefully restore individual items that could have been affected more directly by carbon and residues. For expensive and precious pieces of art, SERVPRO recommends a professional curator seek out the services of a conservation restoration company that specializes in this field.

As the overseer of the facility, you must protect the artifacts and items you display within your museum with the highest regard. In ways, this responsibility is even more important than making these items available to view by the public that wanders the halls daily. Our professionals offer a pack-out service that can help affected pieces get restored to their original vibrancy and appearance.

Pack-outs are items removed to a nearby facility or safe area of the museum itself out of harm’s way. These decisions can get made based on items that continue to be at-risk throughout fire restoration efforts or based on items that have gotten damaged by the fire but can get restored by our experienced technicians. Our SERVPRO team tags items for removal and storage with our initial assessment of the damage and have gentle cleansers and techniques to preserve the authenticity and uniqueness of one-of-a-kind artifacts affected by soot or smoke residue. Many items are good candidates for submersion into an ultra-sonic bath for gentle cleaning.

While you might not anticipate the possibility of fire damage affecting your museum or other place of business, the right trained professionals can help you to get your doors back open to the public quickly. Give our SERVPRO of North Sacramento rapid response team a call anytime at (916) 587-3438.
