Signs to look for

When to call us for hurricane flood cleanup

For a clear turnaround, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

The water is already gone but the line is on every wall

For a clear turnaround, water that drained on its own left days of damage behind it. For a clear turnaround, the absence of standing water tells you nothing about what soaked in.

The house was closed and hot the entire time

Along the recovery roadmap, no power means no cooling and no air movement for days.

Growth is visible on baseboards, furniture legs or the back of doors

For a clear turnaround, mold can begin within 24 to 48 hours, so after a week it is established rather than starting.

Drywall is soft well above where the water stopped

With each visible step, gypsum wicks upward for days, so the wet line inside is higher than the mark on the paint.

The smell hits you before you are through the door

As the property moves toward recovery, that odor is bacteria and growth working on wet organic material.

Cabinet bases and door bottoms have swelled and come apart

With each visible step, particleboard and medium density fiberboard delaminate and never recover once they have swelled. As the property moves toward recovery, plywood boxes and solid wood often survive.

What happens

How we handle hurricane flood cleanup

Our recovery crew adjusts the work to what got wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.

Entry safety on a building nobody has been inside for days

For a clear turnaround, power to the affected area goes off before anyone enters.

A return walkthrough with you, or documented for you

For a clear turnaround, if reentry rules keep you out, we walk it with photos and video and send you the file.

Surge or rainfall established and written down

With each visible step, sand, marsh deposits and a debris line point to surge. Along the recovery roadmap, rainfall flooding leaves a different signature.

Standing water and saturated debris removed together

For a clear turnaround, submersible pumps move whatever is left and crews clear soaked material in the same pass.

Honest salvage math after multi day exposure

Along the recovery roadmap, porous material that sat in floodwater for days is removed rather than cleaned.

Flood cut above the wet line and insulation out

With each visible step, drywall comes off above the height moisture actually reached, and wet batt insulation is bagged behind it.

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

For a clear turnaround, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. For a clear turnaround, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Whole home hurricane flood cleanup, single level houseFor a clear turnaround, national estimate for removal, cleaning, disinfection and drying across a flooded single level home.$8,000 to $25,000
One level taken back to the studs after days of standing waterWith each visible step, national estimate where prolonged exposure means all porous material is removed.$10,000 to $30,000
Two story home with a flooded lower level after a named stormFor a clear turnaround, national estimate including contents handling and drying on both levels.$15,000 to $40,000
Floodwater cleanup priced by affected areaWith each visible step, national estimate covering removal, cleaning, disinfection and drying of flooded area.$7 to $15 per square foot
Contents packout, cleaning and storage during the rebuildAs the property moves toward recovery, national estimate. With each visible step, volume, storage duration and specialty items drive the spread.$1,000 to $5,000
Debris removal and disposal, per container loadWith each visible step, national estimate per container. For a clear turnaround, after a named storm, hauling congestion pushes toward the top.$400 to $900
Named storm deductible on a $400,000 dwelling limitWith each visible step, national illustration at one to five percent of the dwelling limit. With each visible step, your policy states your own percentage.$4,000 to $20,000
Generator supported response where the building has no powerAs the property moves toward recovery, national estimate. As the property moves toward recovery, the generator is always placed outside the building.$200 to $600 per visit
After hours or overnight dispatch chargeFor a clear turnaround, national estimate for nights, weekends and holidays, billed once rather than per hour.$100 to $400 nationally
  • How long the water sat before anyone got back
    As the property moves toward recovery, hours means drying and cleaning.

  • Depth and how many levels flooded
    Depth sets the flood cut height and the removal volume. A second flooded level roughly doubles the recovery roadmap.

  • Surge or rainfall water
    As the property moves toward recovery, surge brings salt, sand and marsh sediment and it corrodes what it touched.

  • How much has to be removed rather than cleaned
    For a clear turnaround, drywall, insulation, cabinetry bases and flooring dominate the removal line. For a clear turnaround, solid wood, masonry and plywood often stay.

  • Contents volume and the inventory work
    Along the recovery roadmap, a furnished family home carries thousands of items.

  • Power availability on site
    With each visible step, no utility power means generator support, which adds cost per visit. As the property moves toward recovery, a generator is always placed outside the building.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

With each visible step, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

Every day the building stayed closed multiplied the damage

With each visible step, heat, humidity and no air movement turn a drying job into a removal job.

Growth is established rather than starting

As the property moves toward recovery, mold can begin within 24 to 48 hours, so after a week it is part of the condition of the building.

A flood claim has a proof of loss deadline

With each visible step, flood policies require a signed proof of loss, generally within 60 days of the loss unless the deadline is formally extended.

Saltwater keeps working after the water leaves

Along the recovery roadmap, surge leaves salt in framing, fasteners and wiring, and saltwater corrosion continues in humid air.

Helpful service information

What to know about hurricane flood cleanup

As the property moves toward recovery, start with the short explanation. With each visible step, open a card if you want a little more detail.

What is happening inside the property

Along the recovery roadmap, a pipe break gets attention in minutes.

Read the explanation

Along the recovery roadmap, a hurricane loss is defined by time more than by depth, and that is the single most useful thing to understand.

How the next step is decided

For a clear turnaround, storm surge is ocean water driven inland by wind and low pressure, and it arrives with sand, marsh mud and salt.

Read the explanation

With each visible step, surge and rainfall leave different fingerprints and it is worth knowing which one you have.

What may change the work

With each visible step, gypsum board wicks water upward for days, so the wet line inside the wall sits above the visible mark on the paint.

Read the explanation

As the property moves toward recovery, the flood cut is the technical decision that decides the size of the job.

Common questions

Questions about hurricane flood cleanup

Does flood insurance cover hurricane flooding?

Along the recovery roadmap, yes, and this is the loss it is designed for. As the property moves toward recovery, flood policies need a general condition of flooding in the area, which a hurricane clearly creates.

How much does hurricane flood cleanup cost?

With each visible step, nationally, a flooded single level home usually runs about $8,000 to $25,000. As the property moves toward recovery, one level taken back to the studs after days of water typically runs $10,000 to $30,000.

What is a hurricane deductible and why is mine so high?

As the property moves toward recovery, it is a deductible set as a percentage of your dwelling limit instead of a flat amount, commonly one to five percent.

What is the difference between storm surge and flooding from rain?

As the property moves toward recovery, surge is ocean water pushed inland by the storm, and it leaves sand, marsh sediment and salt behind.

Along the recovery roadmap, the house sat wet for a week. Can anything be saved?

As the property moves toward recovery, solid wood, masonry, framing and most hard goods usually can be. Along the recovery roadmap, drywall, insulation, carpet, padding and particleboard cabinetry that sat in floodwater for days cannot.

With each visible step, there is already mold when I got back. What changes?

As the property moves toward recovery, the plan shifts from drying to removal, with sealed work area and air quality control. Along the recovery roadmap, growth after a week of wet heat is expected rather than unusual.

Can I clean it up myself to save money?

For a clear turnaround, some of it, carefully, and not the wet structure. For a clear turnaround, wear gloves and eye protection, wash your hands afterward, and keep small children, pets and anyone immunocompromised out until it is cleaned.
