Our Flood Damage Restoration Process — Step by Step

• Step 1 — Safety Assessment Flood events create serious safety hazards, electrical, structural, and biological. Our team conducts a safety assessment before any entry. We confirm electrical systems are de-energized in affected areas before extraction begins.
• Step 2 — Emergency Documentation Complete photographic and moisture documentation before work begins, critical for NFIP flood insurance claims and FEMA assistance applications.
• Step 3 — Submersible Pumping and Extraction Large-volume submersible pumps remove bulk floodwater first. Truck-mounted extraction units follow to remove remaining water from flooring, carpet, and surface materials.
• Step 4 — Contaminated Material Removal All porous materials contacted by floodwater, drywall to the flood line, insulation, carpet, flooring where necessary, cabinetry lower sections, are removed. Floodwater is Category 3. Porous materials cannot be dried and reused, they must be removed.
• Step 5 — Structural Cleaning and Disinfection All remaining hard surfaces, concrete, metal framing, block, are cleaned and treated with hospital-grade disinfectants in a multi-stage process before drying begins.
• Step 6 — Structural Drying Commercial drying equipment is deployed and monitored daily until all structural materials reach dry standard. In flood events, drying timelines are typically longer due to the volume of water and the extent of material removal required.
• Step 7 — Mold Prevention and Remediation Flood events carry very high mold risk. We apply antimicrobial preventive treatment throughout and conduct a mold inspection before reconstruction begins. [LINK TO: Mold Page]
• Step 8 — Reconstruction Full structural rebuild, drywall, insulation, flooring, cabinetry, paint, returns your home to pre-flood condition.
