Flood cleanup is the dirty work after outside water gets in: shoveling mud, hauling soaked furniture and flooring, and washing down every surface the water touched. In Edmond it often follows a spring storm that drops several inches of rain in a few hours and overwhelms yards, streets and creek channels.
Start with safety. Do not walk through standing flood water if power is on in the house. Wear boots and gloves, since flood water can carry sewage, fuel and sharp debris. Leave anything with a gas line alone until the gas company checks it.
The restoration crew removes ruined materials, scrapes and washes out silt, and disinfects floors, framing and the lower part of walls. Garages are a common target in Edmond because they sit lowest on many lots and hold the water heater and stored items.
Before anything goes to the curb, photograph it and make a list. Flood insurance adjusters ask for item lists and photos, and keep receipts for anything you replace.
