Steps to Take After Water Damage Occurs

In the unfortunate event that you are faced with water damage, we've provided a few tips of what to do and what not to do immediately following:

What to do:

If the outside temperature is above 60 degrees, use dehumidifiers if available.
Use fans in conjunction with dehumidification equipment to circulate the air and assist drying.
Remove as much water as possible by mopping and blotting.
Wipe furniture dry.
Lift draperies off carpet, loop through a coat hanger, and place the hanger on the drapery rod.
Prop up wet furniture cushions fir even drying and place small wood blocks or aluminum foil under furniture legs.
Remove wet area rugs or other floor coverings.
Open furniture drawers, closet doors, and luggage, to enhance drying.
Move photos, paintings, and art objects to a safe, dry location.
Remove damp books from shelves and spread out to dry.

What not to do:

Do not use ordinary household vacuum to remove water.
Do not use electrical appliances while on wet carpet or wet floors.
Do not go into rooms with standing water if the electricity is still on.
Do not lift tacked-down carpet without professional help. Lifting the carpet incorrectly could promote damage and delamination.
Do not wait to call for professional help. Damage from the water and bacteria growth can begin within hours.
Do not disturb mold if it is visible.

What does a water damage mitigation company do?

A water damage mitigation company such as ServiceMaster Advanced Cleaning & Restoration, The Master of Disaster, has a vested interest in "mitigating", lessening the severity of your fire or water damage situation. This is what we are hired to do. We arrive at the scene of a water damage, fire or flood damage home or business and dry floors, walls and carpets, (and contents) as well as clean after fire damage, as opposed to rebuilding and replacing structure and contents. Whether a home or business owner has a high insurance deductible, or doesn't have coverage at all, it makes sense to try to save items and structure, as opposed to replacing and rebuilding whenever possible.

In this brief video, Rob Guthans, the owner of ServiceMaster Advanced Cleaning, explains the differences between the incentives of a pure water damage mitigation company versus a rebuilding contractor when faced with a water damage or a fire damage
