What you can expect
Depending on the extent of the flood, a typical approach to emergency flood damage restoration would be:
- Flood water extraction: Extract any remaining flood water from the affected area using the market-leading water extraction technology. The use of wet vacs and water extraction pumps along with other innovative equipment make the flood water removal process extremely efficient both in speed and cost.
- Sanitisation: This stage is highly recommended for any emergency flood damage restoration situation, especially if sewage has contaminated the flood water. Once this is completed, our emergency flood damage restoration experts will perform testing on any surfaces to confirm a significant reduction in contamination has been achieved. A physical copy of the report can also be requested.
- Mitigation: Following an emergency flood incident, it’s important to start the drying process as quickly as possible. This mitigates the risk of any mould growing should damp remain following the extraction of the flood water.
- Surveying: Once the flooded area has been thoroughly dried one of our emergency flood damage restoration surveyors will visit the property to assess the damage. There may also be a case for further drying following the results of the survey.
At Ideal Response we work towards reducing the need to strip out elements of the affected flooded area within domestic and commercial properties. This is in line with the requirements of insurers and our commitment to sustainability and Net Zero.
