Complete Restoration and Cleanup Services
Flood damage demands immediate professional attention to prevent costly long-term problems. Standing water creates the perfect environment for mold growth within just 24-48 hours, turning a manageable situation into a serious health hazard.
Our water damage restoration process uses industrial-grade equipment to remove contaminated floodwater quickly. Advanced dehumidification systems eliminate moisture from walls, floors, and hidden areas where secondary damage typically develops. Strict sanitization protocols using EPA-approved disinfectants eliminate dangerous bacteria and contaminants found in floodwater.
When possible, our contents cleaning service helps salvage valuable belongings that might otherwise be total losses.
Local Flood Damage Specialists
Wilmington’s coastal location presents unique flooding challenges. Five of the top 10 most costly hurricanes to hit the U.S. have damaged North Carolina, including Hurricane Hugo and Hurricane Sandy – all resulting in significant flooding.
The Cape Fear River poses ongoing flood risks to downtown Wilmington during heavy rainfall. Coastal storms bring storm surge threats to areas near Wrightsville Beach and Carolina Beach. Different neighborhoods require different approaches – industrial buildings in the Brooklyn Arts District face distinct challenges compared to residential homes in Castle Hayne or waterfront properties in RiverLights.
Our Professional Restoration Process
Every flood cleanup project follows our proven methodology designed to minimize damage and accelerate recovery. Time is critical in flood restoration – the longer water sits, the more damage occurs. Our technicians arrive equipped with everything needed to begin work immediately, maintaining clear communication throughout each phase.
Step 1: Damage Assessment and Documentation
Comprehensive property inspection using advanced moisture detection equipment maps water penetration throughout your building, including behind walls and under flooring. Detailed photo documentation supports your insurance claim.
Step 2: Water Removal and Extraction
Professional-grade extraction equipment removes standing water efficiently while specialized procedures safely handle contaminated water. Quick removal prevents further absorption into building materials.
Step 3: Structural Drying and Dehumidification
Strategic placement of industrial air movers and dehumidifiers creates optimal drying conditions. We continuously monitor moisture levels to ensure complete water removal.
Step 4: Cleaning, Sanitizing, and Restoration
Deep cleaning removes sediment and debris left by floodwater. EPA-approved sanitizers eliminate harmful bacteria, making your property safe for occupancy.
