What To Do Immediately
- Turn off electricity to affected areas if water is near outlets or panels
- Note the approximate time the water damage started, for your insurance claim
- Shut off the water source if it is safe to do so
- Keep receipts for any temporary repairs or emergency supplies you purchase
- Call a restoration professional as soon as possible
What Not To Do
- Do not attempt to dry out large areas with household fans alone — professional drying equipment moves far more air

Frequently Asked Questions
Is emergency water damage service available at night or on weekends in Smithfield?
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.
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.
Can water damage lead to mold in Smithfield properties?
Yes — mold can begin developing within 24 to 48 hours after a water event, particularly in humid conditions. Thorough extraction and structural drying, not just surface cleanup, is the most effective way to prevent mold growth after water damage.
Will a restoration company in Smithfield 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.
What's the difference between water damage restoration and mold remediation in Smithfield?
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.
