What To Do Immediately

- Keep receipts for any temporary repairs or emergency supplies you purchase
- Note the approximate time the water damage started, for your insurance claim
- Shut off the water source if it is safe to do so
What Not To Do
- Do not assume carpet padding can be saved once it has been soaked for more than a few hours

Frequently Asked Questions
Is emergency water damage service available at night or on weekends in Thompson?
Restoration professionals in our network generally offer 24/7 emergency response, since water damage doesn't wait for business hours. Availability can vary by provider and current call volume.
Do restoration companies serving Thompson work directly with insurance companies?
Many restoration professionals in our network are experienced in documenting damage and communicating with insurance adjusters, which can help streamline the claims process. Final claim decisions are always made by your insurance provider.
What should I do while waiting for a restoration crew to arrive?
If it's safe, shut off the water source, avoid electrical hazards, and move valuables away from the affected area. Avoid using household equipment not designed for water removal, and don't delay — the longer water sits, the greater the risk of structural damage and mold growth.
Will a restoration company in Thompson handle both water extraction and repairs?
Many restoration professionals offer both mitigation (water extraction and drying) and reconstruction (repairing drywall, flooring, and other damaged materials), which can simplify the process by keeping the entire job with one team.
How long does water damage restoration typically take in Thompson?
Timelines depend on the extent of the damage. A contained leak with prompt extraction might dry out in 3–5 days, while larger floods affecting multiple rooms or floors can take one to two weeks, especially if structural materials like drywall or subflooring need to be replaced.
