Before The Flood

Predator personal identification tags (PIT) should be removed from pets before attempting to clean their living area. If your home has flooded, consider hiring a professional plumber or electrician to assess and repair any damage.

Document Damage

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends documenting all property damage before cleaning up. Take photos of: • Water damage • Mold growth • Structural damage to walls, floors, and ceilings • Any personal belongings that were flooded or contaminated with water

Cleaning and Disinfecting

Clean and disinfect all surfaces using a solution of soap and water. Pay particular attention to areas around the flood damage, such as: • Windows • Doors • Electrical outlets • Plumbing fixtures

Restoring Your Home

As you restore your home, prioritize fixing structural damage before dealing with cosmetic issues. Contact a professional contractor to assess and repair any necessary repairs.
