What gets handled

The Steps of Proper Flood Damage Cleanup

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

Muck-Out Service

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

F

Flood Line Demolition

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

After sanitizing, drying equipment runs until moisture readings say the structure is ready for repairs.

C

Salvage Versus Discard Decisions

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.

How it works

Four Steps From Mud to Dry

Contractor on the way
