They seal off the area, wear protective gear and remove soaked flooring, drywall and furniture. Hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected. Waste is hauled as regulated medical waste, and the air is treated for odor.
No. Many families set up access by phone through a key holder or manager. You can stay away, and the crew will call with questions about belongings.

Expect to supply a bill or receipt, itemized costs and an insurance declaration page or a statement of no insurance. Ask the cleanup crew what paperwork you get. There is no fee to apply, and no lawyer is required.
