Water damage is one of the most prevalent causes of disruptions in many homes and business places. It can happen to anyone. Recent studies have shown that more than forty percent of US homes have experienced one incident of water damage or the other.
At the moment we least expect, a flooding strikes, and a perfect day is ruined. Nobody can guess correctly when it will happen. The variables that we see are not entirely reliable. Flooding can take place at any time of the year. In homes, something as trivial as dripping from faucets or pipes can lead to a water damage situation. So you always have to be alert.
The trouble arises for most homeowners because they sometimes neglect the warning signs until the problem gets out of hand. That’s not who you should be. Call your favorite restoration company as soon as you find some fault like leaping pipes or dripping faucet.
If the damage has already occurred, you could call a restoration company, particularly one that is capable of handling the job efficiently. Any good company of this type should have a history of acceptable work done.
Before the experts arrive, you can do some things to alleviate the situation. Your first priority should be the safety of your family. To this end, turn off the electricity supply so that no one gets electrocuted if they venture into the water. You want to keep the kids safely away from the flooded area.
Next, you might want to shut off the water valve inlet valve. It will serve to keep the water supply from getting contaminated. Before venturing into the water, it will do you good to wear protective sturdy boots as there might be sharp objects in the water as well as germs and other disease-causing organisms.
After this, you can start evacuating the water. If the source of the water damage is from a natural source like flash storms, you might want to wait until it stops before acting. Use electric pumps or hand pumps to suck out the water. You could pump it into the sewage system or into a dump truck or a place in the yard that wouldn’t cause any harm. In using an electric pump, you have to be careful so you don’t get an electric shock.
After draining the water, you can begin to salvage whatever can be salvaged. These include items like pieces of furniture, carpets, upholstery, gadgets, appliances, etc. take them somewhere safe and ensure that they are adequately dry before bringing them into the room again.
Then, begin to inspect the house or room to see what was damaged and what would need to be fixed or replaced. Have a more experienced eye do this for you if you must. It will help in determining what the insurance company can pay for ad help replace.
