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. That's the baseline for floodwater, not an upgrade.

Flood Recovery Work Through Our Network
Here's the sequence a flood job follows.
Mud-Out & Silt Removal
Silt and mud come out first, by shovel, squeegee, and pressure wash. Skipping this step dries contamination right into the surface.
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
Every exposed surface gets cleaned and disinfected before drying begins. 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.

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?
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?
Expect a couple of days for mud-out and demolition, about a week for drying, and several weeks for reconstruction, longer after widespread storms.
What should I document for my flood claim?
Take photos of the flood line, each room, and damaged belongings before removal. Save receipts and the contractor's logs and estimates.
