Water damage and mould remediation in Flint
Restoration firms for drying and mould removal.
5 pros in Flint
Water damage in a Flint home often starts in winter. The National Weather Service's Flint climate report gives normals for December 17 of a 34°F high and a 22°F low, with 5.7 inches of snowfall for December 1–17, so cold and thaw are part of the local picture. Michigan's health department lists leaks in pipes or roof, flooding, and humidity over 60% as common reasons for mould growth. That means drying out quickly and finding the source both matter. When you hire, ask the firm to name the cause of the water, say what it will dry and remove, and put that in writing. Before work starts, tell your insurer about the water damage and ask what coverage you have, because Michigan's insurance regulator notes that a sewer backup or a failing sump pump may be covered. If repairs involve plumbing, electrical or building work, the City of Flint's Building and Safety Division inspects all of those trades, and its inspectors are licensed by the State of Michigan.

Questions about hiring in Flint
What causes mould to grow after water damage in Michigan?
Michigan's health department lists dampness from leaks in pipes or roof, dampness from flooding, and humidity over 60% as common reasons for mould growth. When you compare quotes, check that each one deals with the source of the moisture as well as the visible mould, so it does not return. Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (source, opens in a new tab)
Should I call my insurer before hiring a restoration company?
Yes, it helps to call first. Michigan's insurance regulator advises telling your insurer about the water damage and asking what coverage you have, rather than just saying it was a flood. A sewer backup or failing sump pump may be covered. Keep photos and written notes of the damage and the cause.

Who inspects repair work done on a Flint home?
The City of Flint's Building and Safety Division provides inspection services for building, electrical, plumbing and mechanical work. The city says its inspectors are licensed by the State of Michigan. Ask any firm whether the repairs need a permit or inspection, and who will arrange it. City of Flint (source, opens in a new tab)
What should a water damage quote include?
A useful quote names the source of the water, the rooms and materials it covers, what will be dried, removed or replaced, and how mould will be handled if it is found. Ask for it in writing, with the scope and the order of work set out, so you can compare quotes line by line.
