Here's a checklist of what you should do if you experience water damage in your home:
- Ensure your Safety
- Stop the source of Water
- Document the Damage
- Remove excess Water
- Remove wet items
- Disinfect the Area
- Hire a Professional Restoration Company
- Review your Insurance Policy
Here are some things that you should avoid doing in case of water damage:
Don't enter a room with standing water
Standing water can be dangerous, especially if caused by a sewage backup. It can contain harmful bacteria and chemicals and pose a serious health risk.
Don't touch electrical appliances or fixtures
If there’s standing water in your home, avoid touching electrical appliances or fixtures. Water can conduct electricity, and you could get electrocuted.
Don't try to remove water with a household vacuum
Don’t attempt to use a household vacuum to remove water, as this can be dangerous and damage the vacuum.
Don't wait to call for professional help
Water damage can quickly worsen if left untreated. Don’t wait to call for professional help; the longer you wait, the more damage can occur.
Don't ignore signs of mold growth
If you see any signs of mold growth, such as discoloration or a musty smell, don’t ignore them. Mold can spread quickly and can pose a serious health risk. Call a professional to help you remove it safely.
