Cleanup Work Through Our Network
A complete cleanup usually includes all of this.
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
Crews help sort belongings into keep, clean, and discard piles. Hard plastics, metal, and glass usually clean up; porous items soaked in floodwater usually don't.
Disinfection & Pressure Washing
Hard surfaces, slabs, garage floors, and exterior areas get pressure-washed and treated with disinfectant. 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.

After the Mud Was Gone
Each of these started with mud, debris, and a long to-do list.
Our garage had six inches of mud and everything in it was ruined. They cleared it, hauled two loads, and pressure-washed the slab the same day.
— Victor A., De KalbSorting through our ruined things was overwhelming. They sorted with us, photographed every item, and were patient the whole time.
— Ellen R., De KalbThe smell was unbearable after two days. Once they pulled the wet carpet and disinfected the floors, it was gone.

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.
