Cleaning and Disinfection Services in American Canyon
Duct Cleaning After Water Damage
Floor vents and ducts that took on water collect silt and moisture. The pros clean and dry them so the system does not spread odor through the house.
Sewage Backup Sanitization
The area is contained during cleanup so sewage is not tracked into clean rooms, then surfaces are cleaned, disinfected and dried.
Odor Control After Water Damage
If a smell returns after cleanup, moisture or residue is usually still hidden in a wall cavity, under flooring or in a duct.
Floodwater Surface Disinfection
Water from outside carries soil and bacteria. The pros clean every surface it reached before disinfecting, since disinfectant works only on clean surfaces.
Antimicrobial Disinfection Treatment
After drying, surfaces that were wet for a day or more get an antimicrobial treatment to limit odor and mold.

Cleaning and disinfecting often take a day or two, and drying usually takes three to five more days depending on the area.
