Recovering from flood damage
Floodwater carries mud, sewage and chemicals, so it's handled differently than a clean pipe leak. We extract the water, remove contaminated porous materials like carpet, pad and lower drywall, then clean, disinfect and dry what remains. Because hidden moisture in wall cavities and subfloors is what causes mold weeks later, we measure moisture throughout the structure and keep drying until readings are back to normal.
Mold that shows up later
If your home was dried out but now smells musty, or you see spotting on walls or furniture, mold may have started. Our mold testing takes air samples so you know what you're dealing with, and our remediation contains the area so spores don't spread while affected materials are removed.
Getting carpets and ducts clean again
Even rooms that stayed dry can collect mud, dust and odors during cleanup. Hot water extraction refreshes carpet and upholstery, and duct cleaning removes debris that can circulate once the furnace runs. Note: asbestos testing is not available in Iowa.
What to do right after the water goes down
Take photos and video of every room before anything is moved, and save receipts for anything you buy. Don't run your furnace or air handler if ductwork was underwater until it's checked, and keep children and pets out of areas that had floodwater. Open windows only when the outside air is drier than the inside. Then call us — we'll walk you through extraction, tear-out and drying, step by step.
