If you live in a flood-damaged area, you should consider hiring a professional to do a thorough flood cleanup. This is necessary because standing water may contain bacteria and other contaminants that are potentially harmful to your health. You should also be aware of the regulations and procedures in your city or state regarding the disposal of contaminated items. Professional cleanup will also prevent the growth of mold, which can pose a health risk. You should contact your local health department or the EPA for more information.

Water removal is the most time-consuming part of flood cleanup. It involves pumping standing water out of the flooded area with industrial wet/dry vacuums. This will make the drying process go faster and prevent further mold growth. This process may require the hiring of specialized cleaning equipment and chemicals. If you decide to clean up your property yourself, make sure to hire professionals.

Besides the structural damage caused by floodwater, mold can also form in stagnant water. Mold is very harmful to your health and can damage your internal organs. You should also avoid cleaning up the mold yourself, as it could endanger your health. Hiring a professional flood damage cleanup company will ensure the entire process is done safely. You should also hire a company specializing in flood cleanup to ensure the job is done safely and completely.

Apart from causing property damage and human life, flooding can also affect the economy. Approximately 90% of natural disaster damages result from flooding and associated water flows. Floods kill two times more people than hurricanes or tornadoes combined. Water-related disasters account for 90% of all disasters in terms of people affected. Their economic and social costs have increased in the past few decades and are expected to rise further if not addressed properly.

Flood Cleanup Process Explained

Before you begin cleaning up after a flood:

Ensure all the room furniture has been moved to an unaffected area. If the furniture has been soaked, use a safe cleaning solution for wooden surfaces.
Rinse it with a clean towel and set it aside to dry. You can also use bleach to wash down the walls to prevent mold growth.
Use a stiff-bristled brush to scrub the walls.

If you have cellulose insulation, blown-in paper, or foam insulation, you can hose them off and dispose of them. Fiberglass batts should be thrown away, as they are contaminated. Solid wood, if possible, may be salvaged. Laminated wood, however, may separate and weaken. In either case, it's important to start the cleanup process as soon as possible. Mold can start to grow just 24 hours after water damage, so make sure to work quickly.

If your home was flooded and the area doesn't look too bad, you can do some of the cleanup yourself. If the flooding was minimal, you could try to get rid of standing water using a shop vac or bucket. But for major flooding, you should contact a professional restoration company. While you can clean water on your own, it's dangerous and time-consuming. In addition to water damage, you should wear protective clothing and disinfecting wipes.
