What Flood Cleanup Covers
A complete cleanup usually includes all of this.
Mud & Silt Removal
Mud is shoveled out, floors are squeegeed, and hard surfaces are rinsed. Fast removal keeps silt from drying into a crust.
Debris & Furniture Removal
Soaked carpet, pad, mattresses, upholstered furniture, and damaged boxes are carried out and hauled away. Anything discarded is photographed first for your claim.
Salvage Sorting
Belongings are sorted into what can be cleaned and what can't. Hard plastics, metal, and glass usually clean up; porous items soaked in floodwater usually don't.

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. They empty, clean, and organize what can be saved.

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?
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?
Yes. Photograph each item, note brand and approximate age when possible, and keep a list. Insurers often want proof of what was lost before it's discarded.
Is flood cleanup the same as flood restoration?
Cleanup clears and sanitizes the property. Restoration adds drying and reconstruction afterward.
