Flooded basement cleanup in Imperial, MO
A flooded basement needs water removed and the space dried fast to stop mold and structural damage. First Responders pumps out the water, removes wet carpet and drywall that cannot be saved, dries the space with commercial equipment, and handles the rebuild, 24 hours a day in Imperial and across Jefferson County.
Imperial’s subdivisions grew fast in the 1990s and 2000s. Those roofs and water heaters are now at the age where storm damage and sudden leaks add up.

How we handle flooded basement cleanup in Imperial
Make it safe
We check for electrical hazards and identify whether the water is clean, rain or sewage, which changes how it is handled.
Pump out
Truck-mounted and submersible pumps remove standing water.
Remove what cannot be saved
Wet pad, insulation and the bottom of drywall are cut out so walls can dry from the inside.
Dry and sanitize
Dehumidifiers and air movers run until readings hit dry standards, then surfaces are treated.
Restore the space
We rebuild finished basements, including drywall, trim, flooring and paint.
From our customers
This is a great company to work with. They were on site within hours of first phone call. Management maintained constant contact until all work was complete which took several months. There were multiple crews all were very professional.
I love they give back to our local law enforcement, I love the work they did, I really loved my overall experience from beginning to end.
I had a great experience with First Responders after my kitchen flooded.
Flooded basement cleanup questions
How fast can you get to Imperial?
We dispatch 24/7 from our shop at 11785 Lackland Rd in St. Louis County and are typically on-site in about 2 hours.
Should I run a shop vac or wait for a pro?
If the water is shallow, clean and there is no electrical risk, a shop vac helps. If water is deeper than an inch, near outlets, or smells like sewage, stay out and call us.
Will my basement carpet be saved?
Carpet sometimes can be dried in place after clean water. Pad usually cannot. Carpet soaked by sewage or floodwater must be removed.
Does insurance cover a sump pump failure?
Only if your policy has water backup or sump overflow coverage. It is a common add-on, so check your declarations page.
