Here are a few things you can assist with in terms of the water damage cleanup process in your home:
💦 Safety First
Don't enter an area if you're unsure how structurally sound it is. Sagging ceilings? Avoid. Turn off water & electricity. Don't come into contact with contaminated water. Wear a mask to avoid breathing in mold spores or harmful bacteria.
💦 One Step At A Time
Taking one step at a time can change your experience. Remove valuables and place in a safe or dry place. Assess where water is coming from and attempt to stop the flow before it seeps into walls and carpets.
💦 Remove What Standing Water You Can
When you call Restoration 1 for flooding assistance, ask where is best to start removing water. We will always point you in the right (and safest) direction
💦 Protect Your Possessions
Remove rugs and items off the floor as this may stain the floor underneath. Place all your items in a dry spot until help arrives.
Flooding is never convenient.
