Our Basement Flood Cleanup Process

We follow a proven, step-by-step process to restore your basement safely and efficiently.

1. Immediate Assessment & Water Extraction

When our technicians arrive, we first assess the extent of the flooding and identify hazards such as electrical risks. Using industrial pumps, we quickly remove standing water to prevent further structural damage.

2. Drying & Dehumidification

Next, we remove residual moisture with commercial-grade air movers and dehumidifiers. Moisture that remains hidden in walls or floors can lead to mold growth, which may develop within 24–48 hours after flooding.

3. Cleaning & Sanitizing

We clean and sanitize the affected areas to prevent bacterial contamination and eliminate odors. Our team ensures that all surfaces, including walls, flooring, and furniture, are treated for safety.

4. Restoration & Repairs

Finally, we restore your basement to its pre-flood condition. This includes minor repairs, floor and wall treatment, and monitoring for any lingering moisture. Our goal is to return your basement to a safe, usable state.

Preventing Future Basement Flooding

Preventing flooding is just as important as cleanup. Consider these tips:

  • Keep gutters and downspouts clear to direct water away from your home
