How cleanup moves from water removal to drying

What affects the cleanup price

If floodwater stays in one accessible room, the cleanup scope differs from water spread through flooring layers, insulation and wall cavities. Contamination, debris, damaged materials, access and the amount of drying all affect the work.

One of our local water damage partners will explain the scope and the price before any work starts.

If you're weighing cleanup and repairs, the water damage restoration cost guide describes the main cost factors. Call now about the affected rooms; your technician's assessment establishes which materials need cleaning, drying or replacement.

Documentation for flood damage and insurance

If you need documentation for insurance, photos, moisture readings and a written scope create a record of the damage and cleanup work. Your technician documents affected materials and the areas checked for moisture.

If taking photos would mean entering floodwater or an unsafe room, stay out and call from safety. Describe what you saw during the call. Keep the inspection and work records together for your own reference.

If floodwater blocks safe access

• If water covers the approach to your home: Then don't walk or drive through it; call from safety. CDC floodwater guidance warns that water can conceal hazards and sweep people or vehicles away.
• If standing water surrounds electrical equipment: Then avoid the area and call an electrician, and call us about cleanup. CDC guidance for flooded homes says electrical systems need checking before power returns.
• If the water might contain sewage: Then keep children away from affected rooms and call. Floodwater can carry waste and harmful debris even when clear.
• If you plan to turn on fans: Then leave them off until the water's contamination has been assessed, and call. EPA cleanup guidance cautions against fans where water is not known to be sanitary.
