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

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

Cleaning and Disinfection

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

A

Structural Drying After a Flood

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

C

Contents Sorting and Disposal

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.
