Frequently Asked Questions About Sanitization & Disinfection Services
Can mold come back after sanitization after water damage?
Mold needs moisture. If the area is dried to normal readings and the leak is fixed, mold is unlikely to return.
What should I do while I wait for emergency sanitization?
Keep everyone away from dirty water, stop using drains if sewage is backing up, turn off power to wet areas if it is safe and take photos.
Is bleach enough for disinfection after flooding?
Bleach works only on clean, hard surfaces and cannot clean porous materials. Removing soaked items and cleaning surfaces come first.
How long does sanitization after water damage take?
Cleaning and disinfecting often take a day or two, and drying usually takes three to five more days depending on the area.
Will odor removal and sanitization get rid of the smell?
Yes, once the soaked materials are removed and surfaces are cleaned, disinfected and dried. Air scrubbers handle what lingers in the air.
