What To Do Immediately
- Open windows or run fans if it is safe, to begin air circulation
- Remove or elevate valuable items and furniture where possible
- Keep receipts for any temporary repairs or emergency supplies you purchase
- Check with neighbors or a property manager if the source may affect shared plumbing
- Move rugs and loose textiles off wet flooring to prevent further saturation
What Not To Do
- Do not assume carpet padding can be saved once it has been soaked for more than a few hours
- Do not enter rooms with sagging ceilings or visible structural damage
- Do not use a household vacuum to remove standing water
- Do not attempt to dry out large areas with household fans alone — professional drying equipment moves far more air
