About flood cleanup
Flood cleanup differs from a typical indoor water loss because the water often originates outside the home during heavy Gulf storms and hurricane remnants that regularly move through the Katy area. Neighborhoods near Cane Island, the Katy Prairie drainage areas, and low-lying sections along Cinco Ranch can see water enter through doors, weep holes, or foundation penetrations during prolonged rain events. This water is frequently classified as contaminated, since it may carry silt, lawn chemicals, or runoff from streets and drainage ditches.
Cleanup after a flood involves more than drying; it requires evaluating what can be sanitized versus what must be discarded for health reasons. Baseboards, drywall up to the flood line, and porous flooring in contact with floodwater typically need removal, while framing and slab can usually be dried and disinfected in place. Because flood events in Katy often affect multiple homes in a subdivision at once, we prioritize scheduling and staging equipment efficiently to serve entire streets during major storm responses.
