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.

Mud-Out and Debris Removal

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

F

FAQ

What Flood Victims Ask Most

Floodwater can contain sewage and chemicals. Use full protective gear, or leave it to a pro equipped for contaminated water.

Most standard homeowners policies exclude flooding from outside water. Coverage usually comes from a separate flood policy. Check with your agent about which applies to you.

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

Hard furniture may survive with cleaning. Soft and porous items usually need to be discarded.

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.
