Flood Damage Cleanup Services, From Mud to Dry

Unlike a clean-water leak, a flood requires mud removal, demolition below the waterline, and full sanitizing before the structure can be dried.

M

Mud-Out and Debris Removal

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

F

Flood Line Demolition

Contaminated drywall and insulation come out above the flood line to catch water that wicked upward.

D

Antimicrobial Sanitizing

Framing, slabs, and any salvaged surfaces are scrubbed and treated with EPA-registered antimicrobial products to kill bacteria and slow mold growth.

A

Post-Flood Dehumidification

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

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.
