We are locally owned and operated with a loyal staff, operating multiple locations throughout the region. We offer services to clean and restore contents in loss mitigation, from start to finish. As we begin with damaged contents inside your home, to full inventory, cleaning and restoration, storage, and then final delivery back to you

How can Brightleaf help?

Brightleaf Textile Restoration, is here to help rebuild! We are notified of a loss to assist with the cleaning of the soft contents in your home, after damages of many kinds. We arrive on-site, assist you in determining items that should be removed and restored, and make sure they are well documented. We have trained technicians to properly pack and remove items from your home. As we return to our plant, we process a full inventory of all the contents gathered. Once inventory is completed, an invoice for cleaning is prepared and submitted to your claim adjuster for approval to begin. We are always sure to communicate with both you and your adjuster, to be certain everyone is on the same page of the claim, and the proper approval has been received. Upon approval, the deodorization and cleaning process begins. This process can take approximately 4-6 weeks unless otherwise discussed. In the event a quicker timeline is needed, we review and accommodate. In the meantime of processing your items, and you are in need of immediate clothing, we are able to process a rush cleaning for all members in the home. At the time of pack out, our technician will review this service with you, help you gather items that are needed, review the processing time, generally a couple of days (based on the severity of the loss), and plan to schedule the return of items, to any address as directed. As the cleaning process is completed, all items are packaged and prepared for return, the customer is notified, and we then move into completion. Based on your direction, we either plan to return the cleaned items to your home, or we plan to store the items, at our on-site, climate controlled storage facility. Storage is billed with the claim process, and costs are determined based on the volume of items being stored.
