What Flood Restoration Through Our Network Looks Like
Flood jobs are different from a burst pipe. 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.

What Flood Damage Restoration Covers
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
Outlets, wiring, and HVAC components that sat underwater need evaluation by the right trade before use. Restorers coordinate those inspections as part of the job.
Drying & Reconstruction
Framing and slab are dried to target readings before rebuild. Reconstruction follows with new insulation, drywall, floors, and trim.

Flood Recovery Stories From Hyde Park
These callers all dealt with rising water, not a leak.
We had a foot and a half of creek water through the first floor. They mucked out the silt, flood-cut at four feet, and sanitized the framing before drying.
— Patricia N., Hyde ParkI didn't know my standard policy wouldn't cover it. Thankfully we had flood coverage, and the contractor's photos of the flood line made the claim straightforward.
— Gary S., Hyde ParkThey had an electrician check every outlet that went under before turning the power 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?
Floodwater is contaminated, and drywall and insulation absorb that contamination. They can't be reliably sanitized, so they're removed below the flood line plus a margin for wicking.
Can hardwood floors be saved after a flood?
Rarely after outside floodwater. Contamination soaks into the wood and subfloor, and most flood restorers recommend replacement. Clean-water leaks are a different story.
Is it safe to go back into a flooded home?
Wait until local authorities clear the area. Then watch for structural damage, gas smells, and electrical hazards, and wear boots and gloves since floodwater is contaminated.
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.
