Flood Mitigation

What to do in case of a flood/water loss:

Flood Damage

Immediately phone a certified restoration company such as ServiceMaster of Victoria Disaster Restoration
Remove as much of the water as possible by mopping and blotting
Remove wet area rugs or other floor coverings
Lift draperies off the floor, loop through a coat hanger and place the hanger on the drapery rod
Wipe furniture, prop up wet furniture cushions for even drying and place aluminum foil under furniture legs.
Move photos, paintings and art objects to a safe, dry location
Do not remove books from shelves; rather pack them tightly to prevent warping of pages until a restoration professional can begin this specialized drying
Open drawers, closet and cabinet doors to enhance drying

Do not enter a room with standing water until the electricity has been turned off
Do not use a regular household vacuum to remove water
Do not lift tacked down carpet without professional help
Do not use electrical appliances while on a wet carpet or flooring
Do not disturb visible mould
