Water damage restoration starts with knowing what to do first.

STEP 1: Stop The Water.

Believe it or not most people don’t think about the most important thing: stop the water! Make sure you have a water turn off tool to turn water off at the meter near the street or road you live on currently. It’s $20 at any hardware or home goods store like Lowes or Home Depot. It looks like this:

These forums are actually really good for locals that have been in your situation. Often they will refer plumbers they’ve used as well with great results.

Never, ever forget this brutal reality: insurance adjusters do not work for you!

Insurance adjusters are not your enemy but they are not your friend either.

They are there to cover the best interests of the insurance carrier.

There’s a great chance you’re going to need your own pictures of the damage. Insurance adjusters are not all created equally! While we hope this never happens to you, insurance companies deny claims or they at least stop short of your expectations.

If you ever have to dispute a claim, you’re going to need your own proof!

Take all sorts of pictures as the damage is happening.

And make sure to call your insurance agent as well.

See what this homeowner did below. Showing your own images is the proof you just might need!

And they marked it with painter’s tape so that the adjuster had to notice.

STEP 4: Get The Water Up The Best You Can.

If water is standing on the floor, whether it is wood or tile, get towels and get it up fast. True, a real water damage restoration provider like us will do a lot of that, but every little bit helps to reduce your damage.
