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.

Cleanup crews bring flat shovels, squeegees, pressure washers, wet vacs, debris trailers, and N95 or half-face respirators. That turns a weekend of misery into a day's work.

Cleanup Work Through Our Network
A complete cleanup usually includes all of this.
Mud & Silt Removal
Crews shovel and squeegee silt from floors, then rinse slabs and hard surfaces. Getting silt out quickly keeps it from hardening and staining.
Debris & Furniture Removal
Waterlogged furniture, carpet, and stored items get removed and taken to disposal. Every discarded item is photographed before it goes.
Salvage Sorting
Crews help sort belongings into keep, clean, and discard piles. 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. That knocks down bacteria and the odor that comes with them.
Garage & Shed Cleanup
Garages and sheds often take the worst of it, with tools, appliances, and stored items sitting in muddy water. They empty, clean, and organize what can be saved.

What can be saved after a flood?
Hard, non-porous items like metal, glass, hard plastic, and solid wood furniture can often be cleaned and disinfected. Mattresses, upholstered furniture, carpet, pad, stuffed toys, and paper goods soaked in floodwater usually can't be made safe.
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?
Within 24 to 48 hours of the water receding, once the area is safe to enter. Mud and wet debris left longer increase odor, contamination, and mold growth.
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?
Not quite. Cleanup focuses on muck-out, debris removal, contents sorting, and sanitizing. Restoration goes further, including structural drying and rebuilding walls and floors.
