How fast should I respond to a flood?

Within hours. Standing water absorbs into drywall, flooring, and framing, and PNW humidity means mold can begin within 24 to 48 hours.

Will my insurance cover a flooded basement?

It depends on the cause. Sudden internal failures (burst pipes, appliance leaks) are usually covered. Surface flooding from atmospheric river rain typically requires NFIP flood insurance.

What we handle

Flooding in the Portland metro usually starts with a burst supply line, a failed sump pump during an atmospheric river, a saturated crawl space, or perimeter drains overwhelmed by wet-season rain. We pump out water fast, dry the structure, and prevent secondary mold growth before it starts.
