Residential Flood Restoration After the Disaster

After flood waters affect your home, it’s crucial to be vigilant about potential long-term issues, such as mold, which indicates lingering moisture.

Our mold damage section provides all the necessary information to help you recognize and address these signs promptly and effectively, ensuring your space remains safe and healthy.

Responding promptly to floodwater in your home is essential for minimizing long-term damage.

Here are the steps you can take following a flood:

If you have time before the flood hits, lift furniture and valuables off the ground to protect them from water damage.
Due to the contaminants in floodwater, it’s crucial for everyone to evacuate the property and find a safe location.
If possible, turn off electricity and gas to prevent gas leaks and electrical hazards.

How It Works

BELFOR’s Flood Damage Restoration Process

Once the flood waters start to recede, our cleanup team can begin restoring your home.

Our team will follow several steps to ensure everything is fully repaired. We will:

Pump out any water and assess the damage left by the flood.
Safely remove and dispose of any furnishings and contents that are damaged beyond repair.
Clean and decontaminate the building to remove any potential environmental, chemical, and/or biological contaminants left by the flood water.
Check the building for any structural damage that could cause potential hazards either now or in the future.
Dry and dehumidify the property to make sure that no residual water remains. If left untreated, this could lead to further damage, including mold buildup.

Flood Damage Frequently Asked Questions

Flooding occurs when water temporarily overflows onto normally dry land, often causing significant damage. It is the most common natural disaster in the United States.

Different factors can cause flooding, including rain, snow, coastal storms, storm surges, and overflows from dams and other water systems.

“Flood damage” as a term is more officially used in the insurance industry, especially when describing what is and isn’t covered on an insurance policy.

In insurance terms, flood damage typically refers to flooding from external sources like rivers or rain, not from internal issues like a burst pipe or broken water heater.

To be prepared, discuss with your insurance provider what exactly counts as flood damage under your policy.

When your property suffers from serious flood damage, it’s best to call in the experts.

Flood water can be dangerous, mingling with electricity and carrying waste that’s not always visible but harmful. It requires thorough drying, decontamination, and dehumidification to prevent further damage.

If you live in a flood-prone area, having flood insurance alongside your homeowner’s insurance is key. It can provide significant help in managing and recovering from flood damage.
