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
- Keep receipts for any temporary repairs or emergency supplies you purchase
- Remove or elevate valuable items and furniture where possible
- Open windows or run fans if it is safe, to begin air circulation
What Not To Do
- 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
- Do not walk through standing water if you suspect it may be electrically charged
- Do not assume carpet padding can be saved once it has been soaked for more than a few hours

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between water damage restoration and mold remediation in Wellington?
Water damage restoration focuses on extracting water, drying structures, and repairing affected materials. Mold remediation is a separate, specialized process for removing existing mold growth. Addressing water damage quickly is the best way to avoid needing mold remediation later.
How quickly can a restoration crew respond in Wellington?
Response times vary by provider and current demand, but our network prioritizes rapid emergency dispatch for active water damage situations in Wellington and the surrounding area, including nights, weekends, and holidays.
Will a restoration company in Wellington 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 Wellington?
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.
Is emergency water damage service available at night or on weekends in Wellington?
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.
