WATER DAMAGE RESTORATION AWARENESS:
WHAT TO DO BEFORE HELP ARRIVES
Leaky household appliances, broken pipes, and heavy downpour can often teach us an
important lesson about how damaging water can be. An unforeseen and sudden water invasion
in a home can not only be catastrophic, but also result in the loss of property and valuables.

just got home and instead of a warm loving family, you are greeted by 10 inches of stagnant
water. What do you do? While calling a water damage restoration company is important, you
need to stay safe until help comes. Here are the steps to take as you wait for help.
