What To Do Immediately
- Take photos and videos of the damage for insurance documentation
- Check with neighbors or a property manager if the source may affect shared plumbing
- Note the approximate time the water damage started, for your insurance claim
- Remove or elevate valuable items and furniture where possible
- Keep receipts for any temporary repairs or emergency supplies you purchase
What Not To Do
- Do not use a household vacuum to remove standing water
- Do not turn on ceiling fixtures if the ceiling is wet
- Do not attempt to dry out large areas with household fans alone — professional drying equipment moves far more air

Does homeowners insurance cover water damage in California?

Most restoration professionals provide an on-site assessment before starting work.
