Frequently Asked Questions About Emergency Damage Restoration
How quickly should flood damage cleanup begin?
Right away. Floodwater soaks deeper and spreads contamination the longer it sits, and mold can start within days.
What happens to water damage after a fire?
Firefighting water is extracted, soaked materials are removed and the rooms around the fire are dried.
What is involved in emergency water extraction?
Stopping the water, making power safe, pumping and extracting standing water and starting drying.
Can storm damage repair prevent future water problems?
Tarping roof openings and drying the inside limits damage. Permanent roof and window repairs prevent the next leak.

Sometimes. They should stay unplugged and off until a specialist checks them, since powering them on can cause more damage.
