What Flood Cleanup Through Our Network Covers
Flood cleanup is a lot more than mopping. It means hauling waterlogged furniture, shoveling silt, deciding what's safe to keep, and disinfecting everything the water touched.

Expect shovels, squeegees, pressure washers, respirators, and a trailer for haul-off. That turns a weekend of misery into a day's work.
Up-Front Cleanup Pricing

What Flood Cleanup Covers
Here's what a cleanup crew typically handles.
Mud & Silt Removal
Mud is shoveled out, floors are squeegeed, and hard surfaces are rinsed. Getting silt out quickly keeps it from hardening and staining.
Debris & Furniture Removal
Soaked carpet, pad, mattresses, upholstered furniture, and damaged boxes are carried out and hauled away. Every discarded item is photographed before it goes.
Salvage Sorting
Belongings are sorted into what can be cleaned and what can't. Non-porous items often survive, while soaked fabric and paper usually don't.
Disinfection & Pressure Washing
Every hard surface the water touched is washed and disinfected. It cuts bacteria and the sour flood smell.
Garage & Shed Cleanup
Garages and sheds often take the worst of it, with tools, appliances, and stored items sitting in muddy water. Crews clear them out, clean the slab, and stage what's salvageable.

What can be saved after a flood?
Non-porous items generally survive with cleaning. Porous items that absorbed floodwater, such as mattresses, carpet, and upholstery, are usually discarded.
Should I clean up flood debris myself?
You can do some of it safely with boots, gloves, eye protection, and an N95 mask, but floodwater carries bacteria and sometimes chemicals. Heavy debris, large volumes, and contaminated drywall are better left to a crew.
How soon should flood cleanup start?
As soon as authorities say it's safe. The first two days matter most for keeping mold and odor under control.
Do I need to document items before throwing them out?
Always. Photos and a written inventory of discarded items support your insurance claim.
Is flood cleanup the same as flood restoration?
Cleanup clears and sanitizes the property. Restoration adds drying and reconstruction afterward.
