Common questions
Is flood water dangerous?
Yes. Exterior flood water is considered contaminated and can carry sewage, chemicals, and bacteria. Avoid contact and call professionals.
Does homeowners insurance cover floods?
Standard policies typically exclude rising water — that requires separate flood insurance (NFIP or private). Restoration pros can help you determine what applies.
Standing Water? Don't Wait.
Water damage can begin causing mold within 24–48 hours. Call immediately — every hour counts.
