Proper cleanup involves immediate water extraction, thorough drying and dehumidification using specialized equipment, and comprehensive sanitization to eliminate bacteria and prevent mold. Ignoring these steps can lead to severe health issues and long-term structural problems, significantly devaluing your property.

Flood Cleanup Timeline
NEWDES’ Flood Cleanup service provides an immediate and comprehensive response to the devastating aftermath of flooding, whether from natural disasters, burst pipes, or overflowing bodies of water. Understanding that every minute counts in flood situations, NEWDES prioritizes rapid deployment to minimize damage, prevent secondary issues like mold growth, and initiate the recovery process. Their approach addresses not just visible water, but also hidden moisture and potential contaminants, ensuring a safe and thoroughly restored environment.
Here’s how NEWDES performs flood cleanup, with an estimated timeline:
• Emergency Response & Initial Assessment (Within 45 minutes of call): Upon receiving a flood emergency call, a specialized team is immediately dispatched. They quickly assess the extent of the flooding, identify the water category (e.g., clean, gray, or black water), and determine safety hazards, formulating an immediate action plan.
• Water Extraction & Debris Removal (Hours to 1-3 days, depending on flood scale): High-capacity pumps and industrial-grade wet vacuums are deployed to remove all standing water. Simultaneously, technicians begin removing mud, silt, and other flood-related debris.
• Contaminated Material Removal (1-3 days): Materials heavily contaminated by floodwaters, especially those that are porous (like drywall, insulation, carpeting), are safely removed and disposed of according to strict health and safety protocols to prevent health risks and mold.
• Cleaning, Sanitizing & Deodorization (2-4 days): All salvageable surfaces are thoroughly cleaned, sanitized, and disinfected using professional-grade antimicrobial agents. Specialized deodorizers are applied to eliminate lingering odors associated with flood damage.
• Drying & Dehumidification (3-7 days): Powerful air movers and commercial dehumidifiers are strategically placed to thoroughly dry the affected structural elements and contents. Advanced moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras monitor the drying process to ensure no hidden moisture remains.
• Moisture Mapping & Monitoring (Ongoing during drying): Technicians continuously monitor moisture levels in walls, floors, and other structural components to ensure complete drying and prevent future mold or structural issues.
• Restoration Planning (Concurrent with drying): Once the property is thoroughly dried and cleaned, NEWDES works with the client to plan the necessary repairs and restoration, which then transitions into their Water Damage Repair service.
The entire flood cleanup process, leading to the beginning of restoration, can range from a few days for minor floods to over a week for widespread and severe flooding.
