Elite Restoration and Construction Inc. | Holbrook, NY
Flooding can wreak havoc on your home—but a well-structured, professional response can make all the difference. At Elite Restoration and Construction Inc., we’ve developed a day-by-day flood restoration process to ensure thorough recovery and long-term protection for homeowners in Holbrook.
Here’s what you can expect during a standard 7-day professional flood restoration timeline:
- Day 1 – Emergency Response: We arrive on-site quickly to stop the water source, assess the damage, and develop a custom plan of action.
- Day 2 – Water Extraction: Industrial pumps and vacuums remove all standing water to prevent further damage and limit microbial growth.
- Day 3 – Moisture Detection & Monitoring: Using thermal cameras and moisture meters, we locate hidden moisture behind walls, under flooring, and inside cavities.
- Day 4 – Structural Drying Begins: High-powered air movers and dehumidifiers are strategically placed to dry all affected areas.
- Day 5 – Cleanup & Sanitization: We clean all surfaces, remove unsalvageable materials, and apply antimicrobial treatments to prevent mold.
- Day 6 – Insulation & Wall Inspection: Damaged insulation is removed and cavities are prepared for safe restoration.
- Day 7 – Final Inspection & Restoration Prep: Once dry, we verify structural integrity and begin preparing for any necessary repairs or reconstruction.
Flood damage doesn't resolve itself—it requires expert attention, precision, and speed.
