Why San Dimas Calls Us After a Flood
A flood is not a plumbing leak, and it shouldn't be treated like one. Contaminated water means porous materials below the flood line usually come out, and everything left behind gets disinfected before it's dried.
Category 3 Protocols
Expect respirators, gloves, containment, and EPA-registered disinfectants on every surface the water reached. It's standard practice for flood jobs, not an add-on.
Upfront Written Scope
The estimate spells out demolition, cleaning, drying, and reconstruction before work begins. It's set up to match what flood insurers ask for.

Flood Recovery Work Through Our Network
Flood restoration follows a strict order.
Mud-Out & Silt Removal
Silt and mud come out first, by shovel, squeegee, and pressure wash. Drying over silt just bakes contamination into the floor.
Gutting Below the Flood Line
Contractors remove porous materials below the flood line plus a margin above it for wicking. Framing usually stays if it can be sanitized and dried.
Disinfection of Structure & Surfaces
Exposed framing, slab, and hard surfaces are cleaned and treated with EPA-registered disinfectants. It's the step that makes the house safe to rebuild.
Electrical & HVAC Checks
Submerged outlets, panels, and ductwork should be checked by a qualified electrician or HVAC tech. Flood restorers typically arrange those checks.
Drying & Reconstruction
After sanitizing, structural drying brings framing and slab back to normal moisture levels. Then new insulation, drywall, flooring, and trim go in.

After the Water Went Down
These callers all dealt with rising water, not a leak.
The creek behind our street came up eighteen inches into the house. They mucked out the silt, flood-cut at four feet, and sanitized the framing before drying.
— Patricia N., San DimasI learned the hard way that homeowners insurance doesn't cover rising water. Thankfully we had flood coverage, and the contractor's photos of the flood line made the claim straightforward.
— Gary S., San DimasAn electrician cleared every submerged outlet before power came back on. That's the kind of care I wanted.

Does homeowners insurance cover flood damage?
Usually not. Rising-water damage is excluded from most homeowners policies and is covered by separate flood insurance through the NFIP or a private insurer.
Why does drywall have to come out after a flood?
Drywall and insulation soak up contaminated water and can't be disinfected effectively, so they're cut out above the high-water mark.
Can hardwood floors be saved after a flood?
After Category 3 floodwater, hardwood usually has to go because contamination penetrates the boards and subfloor.
Is it safe to go back into a flooded home?
Only after officials say it's safe. Once inside, avoid electrical panels in wet areas, leave if you smell gas, and wear protective gear.
How long does Flood Damage Restoration take?
Mud-out and tear-out often take a day or two, drying takes three to seven days, and rebuild can take several weeks. Large regional floods can extend timelines because of contractor and material demand.
What should I document for my flood claim?
Photograph the high-water mark on walls, every damaged room, and items before they're discarded. Keep receipts for emergency expenses and copies of the contractor's drying logs.
