Mitigating Flooding

You should never put your family or yourself in a dangerous situation to manage water damage, especially if an evacuation order has been issued. 

If the flooding is caused by a burst pipe or other plumbing issue, here are a few steps you can take:

As soon as you notice a plumbing issue, turn off the water supply for the area (this is usually below sinks or behind a toilet). If this is a sewage backup, avoid walking through the unsanitary material without rubber boots, gloves, and a face shield or safety glasses. Otherwise, use the main valve outside your home to shut off your system. 

Now that you’ve stopped the water flow, it’s essential to contact our Houston water damage restoration professionals and your insurance company. Your insurance provider may recommend another restoration company, but you don’t have to follow their recommendation and risk unreliable service. Calling our team immediately helps reduce the amount of water absorbed into building materials.

While our team is on the way, try to increase air circulation by opening doors or windows and turning on any fans or heaters (if it’s safe). This can help dry the water before it soaks into your home. If a burst pipe causes flooding, turn the heat up to help thaw the rest of your pipes to avoid another leak.
