Protective gear and sanitizers

Flood cleanup contractors work in protective suits, boots, and respirators, and use EPA-registered disinfectants on every surface the water touched.

The work involved

Flood Damage Cleanup Services, From Mud to Dry

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.

Silt and Sludge Removal

Crews shovel and squeegee silt off floors, haul debris to a dumpster, and pressure wash hard surfaces so nothing contaminated is left behind.

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

Surface Decontamination

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

A

Post-Flood Dehumidification

Straight answers

What Flood Victims Ask Most

It can be. Outside floodwater is Category 3 and may carry sewage, chemicals, and bacteria. If you clean any of it, wear boots, gloves, eye protection, and a respirator, and keep children away.

Usually not under a standard policy. Flood coverage typically requires a separate flood insurance policy, so talk to your agent.

Usually at least a foot or two above the visible flood line, because water wicks upward. In deeper floods, entire walls may come out.

Solid wood and metal furniture can often be cleaned and disinfected. Upholstered pieces, mattresses, and particleboard that sat in floodwater usually cannot.

Right after the water goes down and the building is safe. Waiting lets mold and bacteria spread.

No. A Water Damage is a free referral line connecting you with independent, licensed and insured local contractors who perform the work and bill you directly.
