The Steps of Proper Flood Damage Cleanup

Flood cleanup is heavier work than a pipe leak. Mud has to be shoveled, porous materials below the waterline usually come out, and every surface gets cleaned and disinfected before drying even starts.

M

Mud-Out and Debris Removal

Silt, mud, and debris are scraped out and hauled away, then hard surfaces are washed down.

F

Flood Line Demolition

Drywall, insulation, and baseboards are typically removed at least a foot or two above the visible flood line, since water wicks higher than it looks.

D

Surface Decontamination

Framing, slabs, and any salvaged surfaces are scrubbed and treated with EPA-registered antimicrobial products to kill bacteria and slow mold growth.

A

Drying the Building Shell

Once the building is cleaned out, air movers and dehumidifiers run until framing and slab readings show the structure is dry enough to rebuild.

C

Soft items soaked in floodwater are usually discarded, while hard goods may be cleaned. Everything is listed for the adjuster.

Rapid dispatch process

How Flood Damage Cleanup Gets Done

Crew heads out

A local contractor calls with an arrival estimate. After regional flooding, demand is high, and they will be honest about timing.

Flood line check and estimate

The pro checks for structural and electrical hazards, measures the flood line, and writes up muck-out, removal, and drying costs before starting.

Ready for rebuild

Mud and damaged materials come out, surfaces are disinfected, and drying runs until the structure is ready for repairs.

Mud on the floors?

Contaminated materials need to come out fast.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 2.3 square miles (6.0 km2), all of it land. Soils underlying the Pāhoa area are volcanic in origin, deriving from the currently active Kīlauea Volcano (Earth Metrics Inc., 1986). Kīlauea is one of the Earth's most active volcanoes, with the January 2006 eruption being the longest rift zone eruption in Kīlauea's 200-year recorded history (Volcanology, 2007). The volcanic soils underlying Pāhoa are considered to have been generated by lava flows within the last 125 to 500 years. For example, the eruption of 1840 is known to have deposited a lava flow within 1.5 miles (2.4 km) of Pāhoa. Both Hawaii Route 130 and Hawaii Route 132 enter the town boundaries.
