What to do when you have a flood. Here are a few quick thinking tips that may save your residence or commercial building from a lot of damage. This will help with repairs down the road...
- Check your pipes and your main water shut off in your home or building. If sewage backup occurs, don’t use any other sink or toilet.
- Call your insurance company as soon as you can. They can tell you what your policy covers.
- Take pictures of the flooded areas. Do not throw anything away. Your insurance company may cover a replacement. When you speak with your assigned adjuster, you can ask them what is covered.
- Disconnect appliances that have had their power source exposed to water.
