Is $9,000 to remediate basement flood a fair price?

Project Details

My basement flooded this morning, and I finished pumping it out tonight. No drywall got wet, only the vinyl wall, 2x4 framing, and cement block. The wood already has a red antifungal coating. I felt the remediation expert's approach was a bit of a sales pitch, and I'm concerned about cement blocks growing mold, as the expert was very 'concerned' about it. I'm also worried about my flood insurance being affected. My wife feels differently about the expert's approach.
