Equipped for contaminated water

Flood Damage Cleanup Services, From Mud to Dry

FAQ

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.

Typically one to two feet above the water mark to catch wicking. Deeper floods may require full-height removal.

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

As soon as the water recedes and it is safe to enter. Mold can start within 24 to 48 hours, and contaminated materials get worse the longer they sit.

No. We connect you with an independent local pro. Verify their license and insurance before any work starts.
