How it works

The restoration process

1

Initial assessment

A technician inspects the affected areas of your San Mateo property and identifies the source and extent of the water intrusion.

2

Mitigation plan

Based on the assessment, a mitigation plan is put together - what needs extracting, drying, or removing, and roughly how long it will take.

3

Water extraction

Standing water is removed using pumps and extraction equipment, prioritizing areas at the highest risk of further damage.

4

Structural drying

Air movers and dehumidifiers are set up to dry out affected materials, with moisture levels checked periodically over the following days.

5

Sanitization

Affected surfaces are cleaned and treated to address contamination risk and reduce the chance of mold developing afterward.

6

Final inspection

A final check confirms materials are back within a safe moisture range, and documentation is provided for insurance purposes.

FAQ

Common questions in San Mateo

Do I need mold testing before remediation starts?

Testing isn't always required, especially for visible mold, but air quality testing can help identify hidden mold or confirm remediation was successful afterward.

How is the area sanitized after sewage cleanup?

Crews typically use antimicrobial and disinfectant treatments on all affected surfaces after extraction and removal of contaminated materials.

What's removed after a sewage backup - just the water, or more?

Beyond water extraction, porous materials like carpet, some drywall, and insulation exposed to sewage often need to be removed and disposed of due to contamination.

How long does the insurance claim process usually take?

This varies significantly by insurer, but having thorough documentation from day one typically speeds up the review process.

Can pack-out and storage be arranged for damaged contents?

Yes, many crews offer pack-out services to move salvageable belongings to secure storage during the cleanup and repair process.

Do flood cleanup crews handle mud and debris removal?

Yes, mud, silt, and debris removal is typically part of the flood cleanup process before drying equipment is set up.

What documentation do I need for a water damage claim?

Photos of the damage, moisture readings, a written scope of work, and an itemized list of affected belongings are typically what adjusters ask for to process a claim.
