Catawba County has had repeated flood emergencies. In June 2019 the county commissioners declared a State of Emergency for the entire county after weekend rain brought severe flooding and many water rescues. Creek water carries mud, bacteria and debris into every material it touches, so cleanup means disinfecting as well as extracting and drying.
If water enters your home, shut off power to wet areas if it is safe and call us. We extract standing water, remove wet drywall, insulation and flooring that cannot be saved, and dry the structure with daily moisture readings. Crawl spaces can hold moisture for days after the water has left the yard, so we check them before we call a job dry.
How We Handle Losses in Hickory
Hickory faces creek flooding after prolonged rain, tropical-storm remnants, severe thunderstorms and winter ice. Flooded floors, wet crawl spaces, burst pipes after a hard freeze and tree damage are the losses we prepare for here, and humid Piedmont summers make mold a concern once materials stay damp.
Mold usually follows water in Hickory homes. A basement or crawl space that took on water and was not dried to verified targets, a slow leak inside a wall, or a crawl space that stays damp through a humid summer can grow mold within days. We contain the area, remove affected materials, HEPA clean, and correct the moisture source. After a fire, we board up, remove firefighting water from the basement, clean soot, and treat smoke odor in ductwork and wall cavities so it does not return. Storm calls in Hickory usually mean roof tarping, board-up, and drying ceilings and walls after tornadoes, straight-line winds, falling trees, and wind-driven rain. Every job is documented with photos and daily moisture readings, which your adjuster can review and which show when the structure is actually dry.
