Flood Cleanup in Henderson and Las Vegas, NV
Make the house safe first. Keep off wet floors near outlets or cords, turn off the breakers for flooded rooms if you can reach the panel from a dry spot, and keep kids and pets away from water that came in from outside. Then call us. We pump out the water, figure out how dirty it is, pull out what can't be saved and dry the rest.
Around Henderson and Las Vegas, a flood usually means one of two things: a summer monsoon pushes water under a door or through the roof, or something inside the house fails and runs for hours. Most homes here are built on a slab, so the water doesn't drain away. It spreads across the floor and climbs into the bottom of every wall it reaches.

The first day after a flood
What people ask us while they're still standing in it.
Is it safe to be in the house right now?
Start with electricity. If water is near outlets, cords or the electrical panel, don't wade in to fix it. Flip breakers only if you can stand on dry ground. Stay out of any room where the ceiling is sagging. And treat water that came in from outside as dirty until someone tells you otherwise.
How dirty is this water?
It depends on where it came from. Floodwater from outside can carry sewage, fertilizer and whatever washed off the street, so we treat it as Category 3. A burst supply line starts as Category 1. It doesn't stay that way forever. Category 2 water that sits can become Category 3.
What should I photograph before anything gets moved?
Start wide: every wet room from the doorway. Then get close. Photograph the water line on the walls, soaked flooring, furniture sitting in water, and the source if you can see it, like the split line or the door the water came under. Do that before you start carrying things out.
What should I pull out myself, and what should I leave for you?
Get the things that matter to you up off the floor: papers, family photos, electronics, small rugs. If you're leaving for the night, take your passports and jewelry with you, and any firearms. Leave the carpet, pad and drywall where they are. They need to be documented and measured first, and anything soaked with outside water shouldn't be handled without gloves and a mask.
How fast does a flood turn into mold?
Faster than most people think. The EPA says mold can start growing on wet materials within 24 to 48 hours. That's why extraction and drying start on our first visit, not after the paperwork is done.
Do we need to leave the house?
Not usually for clean water in a room or two. If floodwater from outside or sewage got into the rooms you live in, it's better to stay somewhere else until the contaminated materials are out and the area has been cleaned. We'll tell you which situation you're in on the first visit.
How much does it cost? Will insurance pay?
Water mitigation in the Las Vegas Valley usually costs $1,500 to $4,800. That covers getting the water out, drying the structure and checking it with moisture meters until the readings are back to normal. If drywall, baseboards or flooring had to come out, the repairs are a separate estimate, so you see each part on its own.
With a flood, two things move the price more than anything: how much of the house got wet and how dirty the water was. Clean water on tile in one room is a short dry-out. Floodwater across carpeted rooms means pulling pad and the bottom of the drywall, then cleaning and disinfecting before drying. The rebuild is bigger too.

Insurance or self-pay, you decide
Insurance usually pays when the water came on suddenly, like a supply line that split overnight. A leak that dripped for months usually isn't covered. Your carrier makes that call, not us.
We handle the record: photos, moisture readings and a line-item estimate built in Xactimate, the same software most adjusters use. Then you compare it with your deductible and decide whether to file.
Many policies handle water that came in from outside differently from a pipe that broke inside. Our photos show where the water entered, which is usually the first thing an adjuster wants to know.
Paying yourself? Ask about the self-pay discount. The estimate is free, and you see the price before we start.

How we handle flood cleanup
- 1
Make it safe and stop the source
We check that power is off where the water is, and that the water has actually stopped. Indoors, that means the main valve. After a storm, it means water isn't still coming in under a door or through the roof.
- 2
Figure out the category
Where the water came from and how long it sat decide whether it's Category 1, 2 or 3. That call changes what we can dry in place and what has to come out, so we make it before touching anything.
- 3
Record the damage before demo
Photos of every affected room and moisture readings on floors and walls go into the file first. Once drywall is cut, nobody can photograph what it looked like before.
- 4
Get the water out
We extract from the carpet and tile, and off the bare slab. The more water we pull out as liquid, the less the dehumidifiers have to pull out of the walls later.
- 5
Remove what floodwater ruined
The rooms get sealed off with plastic and a zipper door first. Then carpet pad and the bottom of drywall soaked by outside water come out, cut above the wet line. Anything we keep gets cleaned and disinfected before the drying equipment goes in.
- 6
Dry it and check it
Dehumidifiers and air movers run until the readings match a dry area of the house. That usually takes three to five days.
Storm flooding and a clean pipe break need different cleanup plans.
Water that comes in from outside can carry sewage, chemicals and debris. Porous materials that soak it up usually have to go. Hard surfaces we keep get cleaned and disinfected with a product that fits the contamination.
A supply line that breaks inside the house is cleaner water, but it still has to come out fast and dry completely. Either way, the same crew stays on it from extraction through drying and the rebuild.
Outside floodwater can contain sewage, chemicals, and sharp debris; the CDC outlines those risks in its floodwater safety guidance .
What's included
We handle the water and the damage it did. The thing that let the water in is someone else's repair.
What we do
- Pulling out standing water from floors and carpet
- Sorting the water by category before anything is removed
- Removing carpet pad, drywall and baseboards that can't be dried or cleaned
- Cleaning and disinfecting what stays after outside floodwater
- Running dehumidifiers and air movers until the readings say dry
- Photos, readings and a line-item estimate for your insurance carrier
- Rebuilding the drywall, baseboards and flooring that came out
What we don't do
- Fixing the roof, door or grading that let storm water in. That's a roofer or a general contractor.
- Repairing the pipe or appliance that failed. That's a plumber.
- Electrical repairs. If outlets or the panel got wet, have an electrician look before the power goes back on.

Flood cleanup questions
What should I do first after my house floods?
Get people and pets away from the water, turn off power to flooded rooms if you can reach the breakers from a dry spot, and stop the source if it's inside the house. Take photos. Then call 888-453-3591 and we'll walk you through the rest while the crew heads out.
How much does flood cleanup cost in Las Vegas?
A typical water dry-out here runs $1,500 to $4,800. Floodwater from outside usually lands higher in that range or above it, because more material comes out and everything has to be disinfected. Repairs come after that, often about twice the dry-out. We give you a free estimate on site before any work starts.
Does homeowners insurance cover flood cleanup?
It depends on how the water got in. A pipe that burst inside the house is often covered. Water that came in from outside during a storm is treated differently by a lot of policies, and flood coverage is usually a separate policy. Your carrier decides. We give them photos, readings and a line-item estimate.
Can I do flood cleanup myself?
You can handle a small clean-water spill on tile with towels and a wet vac. Once water has soaked into carpet pad or the bottom of the drywall, or if it came from outside, towels won't tell you when it's dry. You need extraction equipment, dehumidifiers and a moisture meter for that.
How long does flood cleanup take?
Extraction and removal usually happen the first day. Drying usually runs three to five days after that. Rebuilding whatever came out gets scheduled once the readings say the structure is dry.

Clear work, clean documentation, no mystery in the middle.

When we leave, you should have a plain explanation of the work and paperwork that still makes sense weeks later if an adjuster asks.

Photos and scope notes are collected as the work moves, so you and your adjuster can see what changed and why.
