Flooding can leave standing water, contaminated materials, and hidden moisture throughout a property. Professional restoration helps remove the water and stabilize floors, walls, ceilings, and structural components.
What the Job Involves
The property is inspected for standing water, moisture, contamination, and damaged materials. Water is extracted, unsalvageable materials are removed, and affected areas are cleaned and dried.
Signs You Need It
- Standing floodwater
- Soaked carpet or flooring
- Wet drywall or insulation
- Mud or sediment inside the property
- Musty or sewage odors
- Water damage to walls or contents
How the Work Goes
The source of flooding is addressed first when possible. Standing water is removed with commercial extraction equipment, followed by moisture measurements throughout the affected areas. Contaminated or unsalvageable materials may be removed, while air movers and dehumidifiers dry the remaining structure.
What Affects the Cost
Cost depends on floodwater depth, affected square footage, water contamination, flooring and drywall damage, structural moisture, and amount of material removal required. Extensive contamination or hidden moisture can increase the restoration scope.
