What To Do Immediately

- Shut off the water source if it is safe to do so
- Take photos and videos of the damage for insurance documentation
- Note the approximate time the water damage started, for your insurance claim

- Do not use electrical appliances in or near standing water
- Do not attempt to dry out large areas with household fans alone — professional drying equipment moves far more air
