The work involved

What Flood Damage Cleanup Involves

Flood cleanup is heavier work than a pipe leak. Mud has to be shoveled, porous materials below the waterline usually come out, and every surface gets cleaned and disinfected before drying even starts.

M

Silt and Sludge Removal

Silt, mud, and debris are scraped out and hauled away, then hard surfaces are washed down.

F

Removing Materials Below the Waterline

Drywall, insulation, and baseboards are typically removed at least a foot or two above the visible flood line, since water wicks higher than it looks.

D

Cleaning and Disinfection

Every exposed surface is cleaned and treated with an antimicrobial before drying starts.

A

Structural Drying After a Flood

Once the building is cleaned out, air movers and dehumidifiers run until framing and slab readings show the structure is dry enough to rebuild.

C

Handling Flooded Belongings

Porous items like mattresses, upholstered furniture, and stuffed toys that sat in floodwater usually cannot be saved. Hard items can often be cleaned. Contractors help sort and document both for your claim.
