Water Damage
Modro & Company Builders, Inc.
At Modro & Company Builders, we recognize that flood and storm damage in California encompasses more than just structural issues; it often involves deep contamination that poses long-term health and safety risks. Following recent severe weather events, many properties in California have been exposed to Category III floodwaters—highly contaminated water deemed “grossly unsanitary” and posing severe health hazards. This type of water may contain sewage, bacteria, chemicals, and runoff from polluted sources, which can infiltrate building materials, fostering mold, bacteria, and other contaminants that threaten both structural integrity and human health.

Our Comprehensive Restoration Approach
Our approach to restoration transcends superficial cleanup. We prioritize detailed remediation that not only addresses visible damage but also tackles hidden health hazards, ensuring a safe environment for our clients and team. With years of expertise, Modro & Company Builders adheres to rigorous protocols informed by industry standards set by the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC). We collaborate with third-party professionals, including architects and environmental testing specialists, to ensure each property is restored properly and safely.
Why Thorough Remediation Matters
Floodwaters, especially those classified as Category III, bring more than visible water damage. This highly contaminated water can degrade materials, lead to harmful bacterial and mold growth, and compromise air quality. Building materials like fiberboard, drywall, and certain types of wood are highly absorbent and can harbor contaminants even after the water has been removed. For a safe, thorough remediation, these materials often need to be removed and replaced, a crucial step we follow to protect our clients from future health risks.
Our Process: Detailed Testing, Cleaning, and Restoration
At Modro, we begin every restoration project with an extensive assessment to identify the presence and extent of contamination. We utilize advanced testing methods, like Mycometer® analysis, to quantify bacteria, mold, and fungi levels within the structure. Environmental testing is essential for understanding contamination levels and crafting a protocol tailored to each unique property. After an initial cleaning and antimicrobial treatment, we perform follow-up testing to confirm the effectiveness of our methods.
In situations where contamination is severe or has permeated deeply into materials, we follow the IICRC’s industry standards to recommend appropriate demolition and replacement, rather than superficial cleaning. These protocols are not just about restoration; they are about ensuring a safe, healthy environment for those who live or work in the affected property.
Quality, Health, and Safety: Our Commitment
Our commitment at Modro is to prioritize quality, health, and safety for everyone involved—clients, employees, and subcontractors. We know that rushing the process to save time or cut costs could leave lasting issues, which is why we approach each project with the intention of delivering full peace of mind. By adhering to established health and safety guidelines and investing in the best environmental testing and remediation techniques, we protect not only your property but also your health.
