The clean up can be a heartbreaking and time consuming process. We take a look at<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Quite often the damage is severe and requires professional tradespeople, as well as council permits and inspections. Then of course there is the myriad of insurance assessments to deal with as well. Often with such a big job, it\u2019s hard to know where to start first. That\u2019s where our homeowners guide to flood clean-up is useful.<\/p>\n<h2>Repairing and Cleaning Up After a Flood<\/h2>\n<p>Your priority when a flood occurs is to keep your family and pets safe. This often involves evacuating your home. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.civildefence.govt.nz\/\">Civil Defence<\/a> will tell you when you can enter your home again, but this is often only to remove personal belongings. If you are given permission to live in your home again, you will also need to check that there is no danger from:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Any additional flooding<\/li>\n<li>Damage to the structure of your home<\/li>\n<li>Electric shock from exposed wiring to flood waters<\/li>\n<li>Overflowing sewage systems or drains<\/li>\n<li>Gas leaks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You will also need to contact your insurance company to come and assess the damage. They will explain to you the jobs you can hire tradespeople for immediately. Your insurer will also explain what steps you do yourself to assist with the clean-up. If your home is uninhabitable, you can check with your insurer to see if you are eligible for accommodation support.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6262\" src=\"https:\/\/builderscrack.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/shutterstock_1010537257_Resized-1200wide.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/builderscrack.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/shutterstock_1010537257_Resized-1200wide-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/builderscrack.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/shutterstock_1010537257_Resized-1200wide-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/builderscrack.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/shutterstock_1010537257_Resized-1200wide-500x332.jpg 500w, https:\/\/builderscrack.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/shutterstock_1010537257_Resized-1200wide-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/builderscrack.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/shutterstock_1010537257_Resized-1200wide-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/builderscrack.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/shutterstock_1010537257_Resized-1200wide-800x531.jpg 800w, https:\/\/builderscrack.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/shutterstock_1010537257_Resized-1200wide-1000x664.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/builderscrack.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/shutterstock_1010537257_Resized-1200wide.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Cleaning work and repairs needed after a flood<\/h3>\n<p>Water has the potential to go everywhere. It also frequently contaminated with sewage and other nasties. This means that cleaning up after a flood requires more than just drying it out. In general, a flooded home will require:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gib or wallboards removed up to the next dwang above the flood waterline to allow the framing to dry<\/li>\n<li>Wet insulation removed<\/li>\n<li>Electrical wiring checked<\/li>\n<li>Micro-bacterial chemicals used to prevent mould and fungi<\/li>\n<li>Underfloor crawl spaces cleaned to allow access and airflow<\/li>\n<li>Sewage and draining systems checked<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Professional tradespeople experienced in flood restoration are your best option for any jobs you need doing.
