Day by Day?
ASAP Restoration | Serving Los Angeles, CA

After a flood, timing is everything. Many homeowners in Los Angeles aren’t sure what to expect once restoration professionals arrive. Here’s what a typical 7-day flood restoration timeline looks like when you call ASAP Restoration for help:
Day 1: Emergency Response & Assessment
We arrive quickly to assess the extent of water damage, identify safety hazards (electrical, structural, contamination), and begin water extraction. We also document damage for insurance claims.
Day 2: Drying Equipment & Demolition
Industrial dehumidifiers and air movers are set up to reduce moisture. Non-salvageable materials—like drywall, carpet, or saturated insulation—are safely removed to prevent mold growth.
Day 3: Continued Drying and Monitoring
We monitor moisture levels using infrared cameras and hygrometers. Adjustments are made to airflow and dehumidification to target hidden damp zones.
Day 4–5: Mold Prevention & Sanitization
We apply antimicrobial solutions to affected surfaces to stop mold in its tracks. If mold is present, it’s professionally removed according to EPA standards.
Day 6–7: Final Inspection & Restoration Planning
We conduct a final moisture check and air quality test to ensure everything is safe and dry. Then we begin planning for repairs, including drywall, flooring, insulation, and paint.
Flood cleanup isn’t just about water removal—it’s about restoring your property to pre-loss condition safely and efficiently. For expert flood restoration in Los Angeles, CA, trust the certified professionals at ASAP Restoration.
