Frequently Asked Questions About Sanitization & Disinfection Services

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.

Why is sewage cleanup sanitization needed?

Sewage can carry bacteria, viruses and parasites. Keep people and pets away until it has been cleaned up and disinfected.

Is kitchen disinfection after leaks needed after a dishwasher leak?

Drain water from a dishwasher contains food waste. The cabinet base and floor should be cleaned and dried, and disinfected if water sat for long.

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.

Does clean water damage need disinfection after flooding?

Usually not, if it is dried within a day or two. Clean water that sits for several days can start to grow bacteria and may need treatment.
