Floodwater Came From Outside
Water that came in across the yard or street carries soil and bacteria, so everything it touched needs cleaning and disinfection.
Mud or Silt on Floors
A film of mud or silt left after water goes down needs to be cleaned off before any disinfectant can work.
Water Got Into Floor Vents
Water in floor vents or ducts leaves moisture and silt that can spread odor through the house when the system runs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sanitization & Disinfection Services
What is sanitization after water damage?
It is cleaning and disinfecting the surfaces and belongings that dirty water touched, and removing materials that cannot be cleaned.
Is kitchen disinfection after leaks needed after a dishwasher leak?
Drain water from a dishwasher contains food waste. The cabinet base and floor should be cleaned and dried, and disinfected if water sat for long.
Can mold come back after sanitization after water damage?
Mold needs moisture. If the area is dried to normal readings and the leak is fixed, mold is unlikely to return.
Does insurance pay for disinfection after flooding?
It often does when the water loss itself is covered. Sewage backups may need a separate endorsement. Your insurer decides.
Will odor removal and sanitization get rid of the smell?
Yes, once the soaked materials are removed and surfaces are cleaned, disinfected and dried. Air scrubbers handle what lingers in the air.
