We were able to soak up the visible water on the carpet and the middle of the kitchen floor, but in terms of water damage under the siding and behind the kitchen cabinets, we aren't able to get at those.
Do you have any suggestions as to a good company that can assess that damage and determine if there is mold.
Thank you.

Ok so you need to take pictures of the exterior and interior of the home then next the mulch needs to be removed immediately so you won’t get flooded again. There are water remediation companies that deal with drying out and repairing damage but you should immediately be running floor fans constantly in there. The carpet should be pulled back from the wall if it is soaked and the kick plates (bottom board on cabinets) can easily be removed so that air can get in there
