Flood damage, along with sewage, is categorized as “Category 3” water damage, which is the most hazardous type of water damage you can experience in your home or business.

Not only are there risks of a plethora of diseases, but the water may contain large and/or sharp objects, which could lead to severe injury upon contact.

A large part of the Acadiana region is in a flood zone, as Louisiana as a whole is the state with the most flood insurance claims in the entire country[1].

In Lafayette, for example, around 40% of all properties are at risk of flooding[2]. That is very high.

That’s why Superior Contract Cleaning is here—to help anybody struck by a flood recover their properties and move back in as if nothing has ever happened.

Dangers of Flood Damage

According to the CDC, damp flood-damaged buildings pose three main health risks: mold, chemical hazards, and electrocution[3].

Mold can fully develop in a property only 24 to 48 hours after a disaster has occurred. 

It releases mycotoxins, which can cause various different health problems, ranging from coughing, sneezing, nausea, and diarrhea to chronic fatigue; hence, mold remediation is urgent after a flood.

Next are chemical hazards, like oil, pesticides, paint, trash, industrial and construction waste, biological waste, urine, feces, and food waste, among many others.

And lastly, electrocution can happen if the water has reached your wires, sockets, and other electrical equipment, most of which are 12 inches above the ground[4]

Even after extensive drying, many electrical items still may pose the risk of injury and should therefore be discarded.

Types of Flooding

Flash Floods

Rapid-onset floods occurring within 6 hours of heavy rainfall are the most common type of flood damage in the country. Flash floods are characterized by a sudden rise of water levels with high water velocity. More rarely, they can also be caused by dam or levee breaks or ice jams.

River Floods

River floods, caused by river channel overflow, have a gradual onset (usually days or weeks), but when they happen, the damage can be disastrous. This overflow is usually caused by prolonged rainfall. The Mississippi River is notorious for causing river floods in the state.

Coastal Floods

Land areas along the coast flooded by seawater usually happen because of hurricanes, tropical storms, tsunamis, and storm surges combined with high tides. In Louisiana, this happened during Hurricane Katrina, a category 5 hurricane that was the most devastating this century.

Standard policies typically do not cover flood cleanups. You’d need insurance from NFIP.

If the conditions allow it, yes, but in most cases, no. There’s a reason why we wear masks and coveralls; the water is very contaminated. Also, our equipment can be really loud and release A LOT of heat, which can cause great discomfort. We’ll consult with you further on this once we get on the site.
