Signs to look for
When to call us for garage flood cleanup
Our restoration team explains it this way: If you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.
The bottom seal on the door is torn, flattened or missing
To help you plan with less uncertainty, we note this: A door seal is a wear item and it fails quietly.
The driveway apron slopes back toward the door
A clear recovery plan starts with this detail: Stand outside during rain and watch where the water goes.
Storage boxes have collapsed at the corners
Our monitored-drying plan is based on this: Cardboard sitting on a wet slab fails from the bottom up.
There is a white chalky line where water dried on the slab
As we walk you through the work, we clarify this: Minerals left behind mark the high water line.
The drywall on the shared wall is soft along the bottom
To help you plan with less uncertainty, we note this: That wall separates the garage from your living space.
What happens
How we handle garage flood cleanup
Our restoration team adjusts the work to what you can see is wet, where the water reached, and the materials that can be saved.
Hazard screening before any cleanup starts
Here is what this means for your property: We look for a sheen on the water, tipped or corroded containers, and anything from a drain.
Water off the slab, by the method the water calls for
We use this detail to guide the recovery plan: Clean water is the easy case, extracted and squeegeed out through the opening, and depth beyond a few inches becomes pump out work.
Chemical and automotive product triage
Our monitored-drying plan is based on this: Wet paint cans, solvents, fertilizer, pesticides and used oil containers get separated, contained and labeled rather than rinsed off the slab.
Stored contents sorted with you in the driveway
To help you plan with less uncertainty, we note this: Everything on the floor and the bottom shelf comes out into daylight.
Tools, equipment and batteries assessed and documented
Our restoration team uses this point to organize the work: Hand tools and cast iron surfaces get dried and treated for surface rust soon.
The shared wall with the house checked and dried
Here is what this means for your property: The wall between garage and living space gets read at the base with a moisture meter.

Common questions
Questions about garage flood cleanup
Why does my garage flood every time it rains hard?
Our restoration team explains it this way: Almost always the door, the threshold or the driveway. Our monitored-drying plan is based on this: A worn bottom seal, a slab that sits low against the apron, or a downspout discharging near the door will all do it.
Do I really need a professional for water on a garage slab?
As we walk you through the work, we clarify this: For an inch of clean water on bare concrete with nothing stored on the floor, many times no.
Is the water in my garage contaminated?
A clear recovery plan starts with this detail: Assume it is until it has been screened. We use this detail to guide the recovery plan: Garage floors carry oil, dust and tire residue, and the shelf at floor level generally holds solvents, fertilizer or pesticides.
What happens to the paint, solvents and pesticides that got wet?
We make this part easier to understand: They get separated, contained and labeled, never washed off the slab.
Will the wall between my garage and the house have to come out?
We use this detail to guide the recovery plan: Usually not all of it. Before we move forward, we help you understand this: We meter the base, dry sound gypsum in place, and remove only material that has delaminated or was contaminated.
My car was sitting in the water. Who covers that?
A clear recovery plan starts with this detail: Vehicle damage goes through the comprehensive part of your auto policy, not your homeowners policy, if you carry comprehensive.
How much does garage flood cleanup cost?
For a calmer next step, remember this: Nationally, water off a bare slab runs about $300 to $900.
